@kellybaums: (Masking is something both neurotypical and neurodivergent people do! People with ADHD and/or on the Autism spectrum tend to mask more often to fit in— especially women because of societal expectations, which contributes to ADHD often going unnoticed in women and girls.) #adhdinwomen #adhdmasking #masking #maskingautism #adhd #kellybaums

So good!! Mine appeared a lot in kinda lying / covering up my personal life messiness. Like I wouldn’t openly talk about how I struggled to go to dentist or that I forgot about a package and had to chase it down all over the city.

I need to mask more about interrupting. It’s just painful to listen to someone drone on about something when I got the gist 4 words in and already know what I want to say in response. I need a way of holding back bc I know no one likes to be interrupted

Yet another retroactive clue. I wasn’t diagnosed until my mid-30s (now in my 50s) but my whole life I had a reputation as both a social chatterbox and someone who needed a lot of alone time. Fortunately, even without knowing why, my parents were pretty good about letting me go off to hole up by myself and recharge. (I’m also the oldest of 4 and sometimes just needed a break from my sibs! 😂)

This is so good!!! I could never figure out the introvert/extrovert question of does being social recharge or drain you. It goes both ways depending on how masked I have to be!

this video literally came after a woman talking about how she was just diagnosed in her mid-30s after 20 years of going to doctors and presenting puzzle pieces...

By mid-morning I was exhausted from self-monitoring. I thought that was the cost of being smart, capable, and a bit weird. It was lonely.

Hello, my daughter is really struggling with friendships and High School. Is that something that you can coach on. She has ADHD and Dyslexia and possibly Spring.

Helps me to think of "adapting" vs. masking. Because clearly there are times when it helps to fit in. Just glad it is no longer my primary desire.

How do you umask when you get blow back for being yourself. I tend to interrupt and my family hates it and think being inconsiderate.

I’m not diagnosed yet but suspect ADHD I’m only clinically diagnosed as autistic. Any advice for bringing up wanting to be assessed for ADHD with my therapist?
