I didn’t mean I tell everyone, would probably never tell my employer or people I don’t consider close, but I definitely am not hiding my disorder, yes I still call it a disorder because I haven’t found away to turn the corner and start enjoying my ADHD yet. I find it frustrating extremely frustrating at times and am finding it difficult to deal with so like I did so often as a child I turn difficult situations into a joke, laughter has always been a big part of my life, it helps me get through the depression and the hard times. Maybe I don’t deal with things the way I should but it’s the best way I have found to cope. So now when I’m with friends or family and I do something ADHD related like searching for my keys that are already in my pocket. I laugh and say can’t be the ADHD must be the drugs. I’m trying to cope with this the best way I know how and laughing feels way better than crying.
