The world pours so much stimulation upon us that us people with ADHD have to pull ourselves away from it. There's always another link vying for our attention, until the next thing we know the day is gone and we have nothing to show for it.

Meanwhile, the things in life that really matter (making friends, building something) take more and more effort, that we just can't sustain.

But then you find people who understand what you bring to the world, and respect your unique mind and don't ask for any more than you can give. It's worth the effort to find them.
