Is that a brain or a dust bunny?

In my case, yes.

While this is true…ADHD tends to override what logic deems true. The emotional regulation just isn’t there enough to be peachy and positive all the time especially when our society values productivity, reliability, timeliness, and organization…which are difficult for those with ADHD. The guilt is so strong that sometimes it is debilitating. While your intent may be to be kind and helpful…in this community it reads as a bit insensitive.

Apologies, I deleted it.
