Hindsight Confessions

A late-in-life ADHD diagnosis offers relief, but also profound sadness for what could have been. For decades, I saw myself as lazy and disorganized, blaming my personality for career setbacks and relationship struggles. Now I understand these weren't character flaws, but the signs of an untreated neurological condition. This new understanding doesn’t erase the past, but it completely reframes it. My story is no longer one of personal failure, but of an unsupported struggle against my own brain.
