I'm surprised there's no thread on this. Or maybe there was and I missed it.
Anyone else reading this and relate?

I know I have adhd inattentive and was so excited to see this serial starting.
Does anyone know if this is a true serial or a made up. I've actually wondered that about all the diary serials. They definitely are true to life but I wonder if it's actually real. If it's true are you on here, author???
Some things she writes are so me it's scary but I never realized enough to verbalize it. - Like how she writes she thought she'll grow up and become and adult who is organized, but now she realizes that will never happen on its own. YES

Fellow ADHDers, Anyone else reading this?

I never thought I had adhd but definitely relate to some of the things she said. I asked my husband if I might have adhd. He did some googling and told me later that he definitely sees certain things that are adhd signs. Question is now what? (Married 20 years, low 40s). Meantime I'm following the serial....

Me too, it was so cool to literally see myself! I'm 41 but only recently realized I'm inattentive adhd but I went to get an official diagnosis a few months ago and am on medication since. Bh it's helping in some areas.

Feel so validated to read that other people also see themselves in her story! I've been on and off with meds, trying again soon. Hopefully it will help me. (And her)
