MODERATORS
Yes 100%, it's a executive functioning disorder which affects things like emotional regulation and impulse control, it's not as simple as being easily distracted there's so much more to the condition.
For me, emotional regulation and impulse control are my struggles, all of which would be a problem even without capatilism. I was late diagnosed at 31, but meds have been the single biggest change for me in combination with therapy, my anxiety and ruminating thoughts basically totally disappeared overnight. Is it a magic cure all? No not at all, I still absolutely have ADHD, it's just enabling me to handle it without relying on the maladaptive coping mechanisms I developed in the past.
Pre meds, in retrospect, my ADHD was 100% a strain on my relationship, there's a lot to dive into for details but I know I'm not alone there.
