I have social anxiety, ADHD and never forget to respond to texts and calls, never prone to running late, never overshare or talk too much when speaking.

I ignore texts and calls, I'm on time and I rarely talk to others unless I know them and even then I don't say much.

The “This is something that’s hardwired into your DNA and changes how you process and perceive certain situations" could be correct however I am German and throughout my school years I was called Nazi so I built a wall around me as a defense mechanism plus I'm a viet vet. My shrink told me the defense mechanism thing is how some cope with life.

On the flip side, people with ADHD have unique qualities that make them great friends to be around. Hamdani finds that many have a spontaneous nature, are usually down for any adventure, and are extremely empathetic. Don’t gloss over all the positive things you bring to the table.

These ADHD people sound pretty cool!
