@Macha My dumb brain: Liar! Prove it!

but what if everyone does secretly hate me?

"The people in your life want to be there."
On the other hand, I'm still learning how to let people go who offer absolutely no reciprocation. They have no interest, get your shit together, me!

After explaining everything to my Dr, she put me on the medication strattera. I know it's easy to blame everything on the pandemic, I know I have. In this case, I wasn't off. For a decade, I was able to handle my ADHD on my own with coffee and routine. When my routine went to shit for a couple months because my work schedule changed, my family dynamic changed, just so much change, I couldn't get back on track. I was definitely not me. So far, after about 3-4 weeks, this has helped me focus a whole lot more. Like, after a week it took me a second to realize that I was able to FOCUS. That I wasn't paying attention to EVERYTHING around me. The noise died down a bit. I've been able to sleep without thinking about what I'm supposed to be doing tomorrow or next week. I just need to start remembering to leave notes, like grocery lists, bills, and things. I can still get a little off, and get a little chatty. Sometimes I just need someone to tell me to take a step back. Because I know I can be a bit much sometimes. But it's definitely a step in the right direction

This would require everyone to be way better at keeping secrets than you have experienced.
