I’ve had almost 40 years being undiagnosed and thus unmanaged hyperfocusing on random but sometimes-useful knowledge. Deeply insecure about personal competence, perfect example for chronic imposter syndrome. I feel called out.

It is very interesting to read about everyone’s experience with ADHD, and how different it really expresses itself.
