More suited to it than others? No. There is no upside to what I experience. The genes for ADHD and autism survive because their consequences do not kill all their bearers before they get a chance to breed. The appalling thing for me is that I have spent my life telling myself there are upsides; I have now reached an age and a set of life experiences where it is very clear there never were. | ||

You can accept yourself though, which seems to be the important element. If you can't walk you have a disability, but that doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't live a fulfilling life. I do have Autism, rather than ADHD, so I appreciate we probably have different viewpoints on this. | ||
