This is why I don’t want to be diagnosed. I only claim to have probable ADHD when I am trying to help other people who do or might do.

Without claiming any disability, I say what I’m good at and offer to do it. I am respected for what I contribute and forgiven for what I don’t.

I married someone who does planning, she married someone who makes money on his ideas. She runs my business, I talk to clients and teach my classes and (slowly) write books.
