ADHD

I have nothing good to say about the absolutely anti-Taoist and anti-Biblical judgement inherent in the term “attention deficit hyperactivity disorder”.

Nor about the kind of extremely anti-Nietzschean society idealized for German women, that would regard this terminology as righteous.

That said, there is worthy information on this subject and unfortunately this is no other common term in English for this genetic personality type so I’m forced to use it to discuss the matter

I just spoke to Perplexity (my preferred AI - free and without ads in the app store) and received a pretty accurate answer.

Granted, it may just be telling me what I want to hear, so instead of providing this response as any sort of evidence I’ll just say that I endorse 96% of this.

I happen to believe that all humans can and would be wise to grant each other the benefit of the doubt even without understanding each other but in the world that currently exists, that option is not yet under discussion so, as a person afflicted with Severe ADHD Natural Taoist I do wish that people would care enough about us to understand and therefore empathize with and help us.

God knows we empathize with and (at least try to 😂) help you!

Is it possible that I, as an ADHD person, perhaps don't take some of my “shots” because the disappointment of something not working out is so upsetting to me that I would prefer not to risk that disappointment lest it harm the odds of my taking that at a more auspicious moment in the future?

Please explain in greater detail.
