Kindle Notes & Highlights
Be more organized. Come to me sooner. I don’t know how to explain to someone who doesn’t live inside my head that they could have physically carried me to the office or glued a laptop down in front of me and I’d have still found a way to avoid the task.
Be more organized = ADHD ; Come to me sooner = autism ; this stood out to me specifically because I have AuDHD. Only one of them is what I was never diagnosed for but I hope to get a diagnosis before I turn 25.

I am so guilty for long periods of silence with my close friends. I love that the friendship never ends over it. Definitely autism coded.

“Following rules might be on the list of things I’m not great at.”
ADHD coded. Not because I can’t follow rules but because by the time I start on the tasks, I immediately forgot what the rules are.
