People who say ADHD is a super power don't know shit about ADHD. People have different skills and abilities regardless of their neurotype and even if my ADHD did grant me strengths, I don't find this framing particularly helpful. ADHD inertia fucking sucks. Personally I don't have as many issues with things like focus, attention, and organising anymore since taking Ritalin, but inertia is still one of the biggest challenges in my life. It's a seriously under-recognised aspect of ADHD along with rejection sensitivity.
