With experience and ADHD I learned to think in units that can be debugged separately. The experience tells me where those lines should be drawn, and the ADHD taught me to avoid creating units that are too big to fit in my head.


ADHD teaches me a lot of things but I can never pause to recall them. I can never pause. Few weeks ago someone told me that pausing a few seconds before starting to talk allows her to express herself much better and that people react positively to it. I simply cannot do it. Impossible.
