insecurity princess πππ₯
Having a near photographic memory and ADHD is wild.
"I forgot the word for this thing I'm looking for, but I remember seeing it on page 47 of this particular book that I read 3 years ago"
β¦
"oh yeah, BOOKSHELF. It's on the bookshelf! Whichβ¦is in front of meβ¦what was I looking for?"
@saraislet This. In university tests I have often wanted to write like "I don't remember this concept exactly but it's on the lower right hand corner on page 36 under the image of the curch in the course book, if that helps"
ADHD for me is like a series of side quests to help me remember the next step in my main quest
In 2016, I started writing this absolutely brilliant blog post, but the next day I forgot my main point
This began a series of side quests to try to remember the point of this half finished blog post. Anyway, long story short, 7 years later I'm a manager of a security team at Netflix and I'm writing a book about power dynamics in management AND I STILL CAN'T REMEMBER THE FUCKING BLOG POST
