A community for women to find support and discuss living with ADHD.
When you live in a capitalist society, unfortunately the value system is rigged against those with adhd. That DOES NOT mean that you have no value; only that the system was intentionally setup so the only value is “production” in the sense of making a few capitalists richer.
Just know that you are loved and valued. Don’t look to the system for validation.
This is so very sad and hurts my heart. And seeing as we are being serious here I will add that I was very close to being part of this statistic about a year ago. For so many of us it was not caught when we where kids and it is no surprise to me to see these kinds of numbers. And those are just a couple statistics, we also have more accidents, more unwanted/unplanned pregnancies, more chance of substance abuse, more other health issues do to poor choices and not looking after our needs, reduced life expectancy from these choices, the list goes on. I think it was Russell Barkley that talks of this.
