I have ADHD (professionally diagnosed as an adult) and basically cannot focus without music. I complained at work about endpoint management software that was interfering with my music player and was told I didn't need to listen to music while working.

I WFH so I just found another way to play music, but it was tempting to point out to my boss (who I otherwise quite like) that he had just told me that I shouldn't be using a reasonable accommodation for my disability that costs the company nothing, lol.

To suffer from ADHD is to suffer alone.

The world does not care for us and does not care about us. The world would rather attempt to hammer us screws in than try and use a drill.
