  • My (more-or-less) unsung heroes would have to be my psychotherapists who, believe it or not, did not diagnose me with ADHD! They did tests on me, yes, but each time the results were inconclusive.

    Only then did they help me realize how much fear and anxiety were playing a big part in my executive dysfunction. A part bigger than I could have imagined. It is those things that they helped me deal with and that has genuinely changed not only my life but also my outlook on it.

    I still may be neurodivergent. But I will not let that fact be my identity, by leaning into it and thinking it’s the source of all my problems. Instead they helped me learn how to be in control of my life more than ever :)
