No doubt.

When you have it, ADHD is such a dominant factor in the way your life is organized and experienced, its not surprising that it can become a core part of your identity.

I do think it's easy for those with it to over romanticize what it's like to not have it. The lack of ADHD isn't a magic bullet for success and good life outcomes.

Like so many of life's real or perceived barriers, when one gets removed, you'll often find there is another one with a different shape just behind.

The challenge, for anyone, is pressing forward anyways.
