Dear HN,

Apart from the above question. I have one last question that weighs on my mind a lot all the time. I would appreciate any input from HN.

I am a male and around 28. Is it worth for people like me to get into a relationship of any kind? I know it for a fact that I will make the life of people around me very miserable. Is it morally right to pass on my genes and make the life of the next generation miserable too?

I do have some good qualities though. The only positive out of ADHD for me is the insane creativity, the ability to inspire people a lot, empathy etc.. perpetual idea generation etc.

Do you really know for a fact that it will make life miserable for people around you? I think you're being a little hard on yourself!

"I know it for a fact that I will make the life of people around me very miserable."

How? Are these things you can address (either directly, or taking measures to minimize their impacts on others)?

If you feel that way about your genes, adopt.
