How many of us see ourselves clearly?
And I don’t just mean at work.
For years I didn't know about my ADHD.
For years I saw me as almost good enough.
And late-identified ADHDers tell me this all the time
"I wish I'd known sooner."
The ripple effect of clarity isn't just backward.
You're letting go of things like:
🙈Decades of "why can't I just…"
🙈The job you forced yourself to want
🙈Relationships where you played small
🙈Shame disguised as self-improvement
🙈The version of you that had to prove worth
And you're also building toward:
💜A life you don't need to recover from.
The past doesn't disappear.
Late-identified ADHD means you're building the rest on purpose.
