        ? No. I can do what I like, and I do exactly what I want. This might seem like a funny joke, but this is exactly the kind of self-pitying learned helplessness bullshit that I’m against.

          they were just saying that adhd can make it harder to start activities even if you like them, but saying it in a jokey way, that’s all. it wasn’t personal.
