This is the best description of ADHD I have ever heard. I feel a need to send this to some colleagues who keep suggesting, "Just divide it up and do it a little bit at a time. She described me so well!

Yes but the year long credit i had that I used on the last day, having to be on the phone for an hour and a half because it wouldn't apply automatically, because it was the last day, how am i supposed to divide that up? I left myself six hours, ok four because of the time difference, but still, isn't that plenty of time?

Aisling so eloquently, authentically, and even succinctly described ADHD despite her jokes about taking the long way around. I also want to take a moment to remark how Rob so compassionately and patiently not only heard her, but was genuinely interested in hearing more, made space for her, and accepted her wholeheartedly. This was lovely and comforting all the way around. ❤️

To me she explained society, keep it fun with no responsibilities and everything will be fine. Added : It makes you wonder though if we'd have been able to keep it fun what society would be like. She was lucky or the rest of us unlucky she was allowed to be her as a child at school. As a kid we would have got that beaten out of us.

@@antonyjh1234 "keep it fun with no responsibilities and everything will be fine." You have misunderstood. The key word is not "fun". The key word is "interesting". There are plenty of things that people may see as interesting that, from the outside at least, are not fun. Maybe someone finds working on spreadsheets incredibly interesting and are able to focus intensely on that for hours. Maybe for others it's welding or painting. Personally I know that there are certain aspects of my job that fascinate me and I will focus on those aspects in minute detail. Not because they're fun (you would not look at me and think "that guy's having too much fun") but because they're interesting. But ask me to write a simple email and I will put it off until I can't possibly put it off any longer. I'm sure that many non-neurotypical students probably did have it "beaten out of them" in the past. I'm not sure from your comment whether you think that's a bad thing or a good thing.

On older ships, the wheelhouse was where the ship's wheel (for steering) was housed. So if the Captain was in the (his) wheelhouse he was in control of the ship and ready to respond to any navigational challenges. Hence if something is in your wheelhouse it's something you're familiar with and know how to handle...

So brilliantly described what ADHD is like. I suffer from that really badly, though I don't have the hyperactivity part of it. I just can't get things started, even facing serious consequences if I don't do it. My consciousness says "Just do it!" but the rest of my brain doesn't take notice and just does other things instead. If you don't suffer from it, you likely can't imagine what it's like, and how debilitating it is. Unfortunately, I don't have a job where it is an asset, so I struggle every day.

I’m always on the look out for positive role models for my son, so deepest, deepest thanks for sharing. I’m not diagnosed but suspect I have ADHD, the description of being bored being like grief hit hard, having to pretend I need the loo to get away from something boring me to death & the physical discomfort from boredom. On a side note, I’m new to seeing you act & you’re an absolute delight.

Thank you for saying this. I have ADHD and the thing that gives me the most anxiety is the constant worry I'm letting down my wife and kids or annoying them in some way or if they would think I'm unreliable and forgetful. It's a constant stress. I work hard (but erratically) and I earn good money but I know my ADHD holds me back and I'm fully aware that being around me is probably infuriating at times. Knowing my wife and girls are forgiving and understanding has really helped me so I can put that anxiety aside and give that energy to more positive things.

These sort of comments are pointless. Why do women need to have this kind of superficial comment made about them at all and worse still by other women?. I don't really care if you are a male or female saying it but it's just shallow and it's a good part of why it can be frustrating for a female to need to deal with it for apparently no reason whatsoever. I mean, why would you feel the need to go on and comment about someone's appearance at all. Legit, take a minute and think to yourself why you do it.

Love the ADHDness talk, may show it to my Mom to explain bits of myself, and things she does that doesn't realise. The frequent unasked for "advice" that ignores the specifics do get a little old. Also, in Canada here, and the US, a Canadian tux is wearing denim trousers ("jeans") with a jean jacket. I frequently wear a denim kilt with my jean jacket. Need a nice denim shirt like yours, they look good on both of you! A wheel house is a type of Scottish structure, like a primitive type of castle, as I recall related to the earlier broch.

My problem with Aisling is that she is both a very good actor and a very funny comedian.

I see her in a drama and I keep wanting her to break the fourth wall and make snide comments.

For decades before I was diagnosed, I would tell people that boredom feels like death. They'd dismissively chuckle, 'oh ha ha, yes so terrible,' while treating me like I was just being quirky. And I'd laugh along while internalizing the idea that I'm ridiculously hyperbolic and then I'd do my damnest to undermine, ignore and cover up my internal responses to pretty much everything. Which lead to a deep-seated shame of myself as a human being precisely because I needed to hide myself in order to seem like a properly functioning adult, while simultaneously failing to keep up the charade convincingly, consistently or for very long.
