Thank you for creating such great pieces of work. I’m currently going through the diagnoses process at the moment and this has helped me tremendously. I work with at risk youths with disabilities and I’ve loved being able to share something so relevant to my life but also something that can help them relate too. Keep doing great things and I’m looking forward to seeing all your great work 🙂

Hey sorry for the late reply! I’m really happy it helps you! I’ve been living with this self hate for so long that it’s really weird when I don’t experience it now... And that good moments don’t mean I don’t have ADHD is something I still have to remind myself of.

Yeah I feel like we carry a lot of the shame and guilt with us we got given to us when we were younger.. but we will grow! I’m also really bad talking to crushes, do people really grow out of that anxiety?

Fixed it thank you so much! Would’ve missed it

I resonate with this one so much! This is so good 😭 One small thing, I think there is a 'typo' on the last panel of page 2. It says " I can fail and be sad and hurt...I or I can simply fail, without being in pain". I think that extra I is a mistake. Either that or I may be reading it wrong which is always possible. Either way, thank you for your wonderful comics and be well <3

I got told I was irresponsible so often as a kid, now I'm hyper hard on myself just like this. ADHD is "no excuse" and that line, 'whats an achievement about doing the bare minimum?' Is real pain. I was about to talk to her once, got an anxiety attack which still leaves me feeling ashamed. Like ...I'm 30 and talking to my crush is too mu h to handle. Cutting yourself slack is hard when some didn't, and the rest made you feel guilty for it

Okay so I commented before I even finished all of the panels because you know, ADHD ;) But AHHHH THIS WHOLE THING IS AMAZINGGGGG. The last page....honestly I struggle SO HARD with the fact that strategies work...until they don't. So when something DOES work I've become so cynical I'm like "awesome - so when is this going to stop working?" and I know that's not the mindset to have but it's so refreshing to know I'm not alone. THANK YOU.

I literally read this and started SCREAMING interally because HOLY HSUDIGUSDRHGKDFHS. I'VE NEVER REALIZED THAT WHEN I DO SOMETHING WELL I USE IT AS PROOF THAT I CAN OVERCOME ADHD. SO POSITIVE EXPERIENCES CAUSE ME TO SPIRAL TOO AND IT MAKES SENSEEEEEEE.
