  • The last paragraph is noteworthy. Particularly the “However” and the “Additionally” parts:

    The study makes an important contribution to the scientific understanding of psychological specificities of individuals with ADHD. However, it also has limitations that need to be considered. Notably, it was performed in one specific political situation and on members of a small homogenous national group. Additionally, all findings were based on self-reports. Studies on other cultures and using clinical diagnosis of ADHD might yield different results.








  • At all costs present only your true little freaky weirdo self in all social situations, flaws and all. If you pretend to be something else to impress, hide what makes you uniquely you, you might meet someone who is okay but one day one of you will realize that your different enough that it won’t work. On your journey of being the real little freaky Kolanaki, plenty of people will pay you no mind and move right along but one day you’ll meet someone like you. Might not be your little freaky weirdo but will give you confidence to be even truer to your little freaky weirdo self. That cycle may keep going for sometime, which will almost certainly result in some new freaky weirdo friends. And then one day you’ll find your own little freaky weirdo and it is at that point, baby, you’ll be cooking with gas.










  • You might feel like that now but almost certainly not forever. Growth and progress happen so slowly, making it very difficult to perceive. Comparing yourself to others and their achievements makes it even harder to see and in some cases may even undo growth/progress.

    The only fair comparison to make is present you to past you. Sometimes that won’t give you much but sometimes it will and those are good moments.

    My hope for you is that you learn to trust yourself and cultivate pride so that one day you realize you’ve been more satisfied with life and can’t be sure when things changed.
