For many it helps to be clear about what deadlines are real.

From what I see the worst there is seems to be "you can do this anytime you like". That means never, because an ADHDer, helpful as they typically are will be busy from now on until eternity with whatever seems to be more urgent.

Some ADHD-ers are amazing at meeting deadlines as long as there is one at a time and they are somewhat realistic.

people need a "how to work with me guide".
I kind of like the idea, but at the same time it is something I would be ashamed if people needed to work with me.

I definitely have my own issues but I try to present a standard reliable interface outward, hiding my weaknesses and instead encourage people to let me help them using my strong sides.
