I agree. For me it took several workplace disasters before I sought therapy seriously, which was the first piece of the puzzle. More recently I also saw an ADD coach when we realized I had that too. Just today, I realized I’ve been happy for nearly two years of doing my own thing at my own pace.
As a documentary maker, I like to think of my mental hard wiring as making me a hunter-gatherer who is aware of all of the glittery things out in the woods and can bring them home to make sense of them.
I also am grateful for my energy sensitivity, as it really helps me get the most interesting stuff from the most interesting people. It used to cripple me that I had no boundaries to other people’s moods. Now I realize I also need it to do my work.
