Every person I have known with ADHD has struggled because they can't cognitively chop things up into components and work from there
If you ask them to clean a room they struggle because they can't see how to start because the room is one thing and even if you tell them "start with the desk" they don't know how to because moving things off the desk means moving it somewhere else that has to be cleared before things can be put on it.
They are the opposite of not being able to see the forest for the trees. All they can see is the entire forest and asking them to keep track of a piece of paper is like asking them to keep track of a particular leaf in the forest.
Of course they struggle to remember things and notice details
Of course they fucking do unless they hyper focus on it to the exclusion of the forest
They can't do both at once.
That must be very fucking difficult
Yeah it was really hard finding out I'm adopted and then that my birth mom disappeared when I was a kid. I guess the one thing that really got me through it was meeting my beautiful wife Kelly. She's estranged from her family of origin and values family so much she's a stay at home mom, which became really important to her about the time workplaces started electronically verifying social security numbers. God I'm so blessed nothing horrifying is currently happening in my kitchen.
