I just use coffee and exercise and manage my work chaotically but it gets done - apparently my brief fashes of brilliance make up for the disregard for deadlines and processes, never doing things the same way for long, it doesn’t work everywhere but at my current workplace (and one other job) they are happy with things changing all the time.

Honestly the way I was doing speed recreationally (the method) would have been euphoric for anyone; back then I could sleep while high on speed and that felt so good too!

My kids, they figure I have it because they do & when we were doing the screenings for them I was like, no fucking way is that a symptom, that’s normal, that is also normal, nobody can focus on something boring for hours, no child can sit still, no teenager is organized, everyone is annoying sometimes that is nonsense - and they were just rolling their eyes at me. I still think half of it is just the world being messed up, not the kid. The modern world is not made for human brains.
