    I learned recently that struggling to learn the rules to tabletop games is a very common symptom of ADHD

      Everything is a symptom of ADHD these days.

        Bro I’m just trying to throw a breadcrumb to folks who may not realize they have ADHD yet. Struggling through life not knowing why you find things so difficult that most people find easy is a hellish experience. I’ve got a friend who wasn’t diagnosed until her 30s and the diagnosis was a game changer since the diagnosis allow her to identify resources and services to help her live better that she never would’ve considered without a diagnosis

        Yeah, but that’s because ADHD is a spectrum, not something ultra specific. Not every person has the same “feautures” from that spectrum.

        Just had me kids for the first time in 4.5 years. Long story.

        My 10-yo daughter’s ADHD is real and scary. Managing her sensory overload is a whole new world to me. We’re getting there.

      Yeah, I just can’t. Board games/table top games are a huge no for me. I get frustrated and bored, and I am a whole lot of not fun when I’m either of those things. (So I just avoid them and everyone benefits)
