I keep the details of my idiosyncrasies to myself. Folks with ADHD often tell others explicitly.

Not on purpose. I’ve found that making every effort to pass as normal is far more advantageous. If I have to choose between being treated like a child because I’m different vs. being disliked because people can tell I’m hiding something but not what that something is… well, I’ll take option B.
