    I used to be really big into self help books, and I do think they did help positively shape me in some instances. But I really became disillusioned with them after I continued to cycle.

    Turns out I had untreated ADHD, major depressive disorder, and I literally have to work harder than neurotypicals to get anything done.

    Is “success” impossible? Nope. But fucking hell I’d need one insane pipeline to get there.

      I feel you, I’m ADHD, dyslexic, and my youngest thinks I’m on the spectrum. To compensate I read about 3 books a week…
