I came across this Twitter post today and it resonated so deeply with me as parent and as someone with late-diagnosed ADHD. I thought it was a very powerful personal account of the nuanced ways in which ADHD affects day to day life.

Great personal experience as a person with ADHD, thanks for sharing. Rarely do we see someone share their daily experienced.

I read that yesterday! I, too, have difficulty starting tasks. It helped me relate to my son more than anything else I’ve read.

Thanks so much for opening up about your detailed, daily struggles with ADHD! My son who also has ADHD, NEVER hangs up his towel after a shower and has such difficulty with organization such as straightening up his room. Your tweets really sheds light on these specific issues.

Thanks again and best of luck to you.
