I have a moderate ADHD, and it makes me feel free. I have always wondered on how neurotypical people see things, or how I would see and feel things if I was neurotypical, but my ADHD is part of my identity, an identity that i have spent years making and it has reached a moment in which it feels.. mine, I have based it on things I am, and I think that has to do with having ADHD, maybe it doesn't have a connection, I am not a professional, but the freedom I think that ADHD has given me is immense, I also feel like it has given me the capacity to sense and experiences such an extense variety of perspectives, thing that just seems to widen my view of my world, and the other world's around me.
I think that my ADHD makes me both more artistic and more curious, and i explore everything around me until I become bored of the smallest detail of whatever it is I'm checking out, I focus on so many things at once and I get told that I know a lot of things for someone my age, and I like knowing, I enjoy learning, I have noticed that my friends and classmates don't feel that way, and I can understand them, but I just become interested in everything and anything, I absorb anything I get told like a sponge, until whatever topic becomes as dry as the Sahara.
I know not all people experience their ADHDs like I do, and I like that, I like different, I like unique.
I have had a lot of issues when it comes to medication, and I have to take antidepressants, but for once in my life I am okay with that, I like knowing that it isn't in my control, I try controlling my feelings way too much and they always end up bleeding on the floor, and the medication allows me to let loose a little, without turning into a monotone machine.
XOXO Paul!
