I’m sure lots of ADHDers know what I mean. Situations where you’re not meaning ill intent, but the way that a situation turns out makes it seem like you’re the bad guy/girl.
How do you handle the situation without seeming like a victim or that you’re making excuses for yourself? Do you explain the situation or just accept it and hope that enough time will reveal your true character?
Yup. I’ve been doing this my whole life and am just learning how common this is. A lot of people have told me they believe I’m very smart. And others for sure have thought I’m the dumbest person in the room. And it’s probably this that has been causing that. 🤣
