the the ADHD diagnosis has been a real game changer for me because it’s made me recontextualize a lot of decisions I’ve made in my life But the big thing was I just kept taking on too much And so I was working at Radio Hodaki as a breakfast producer at the same time as studying And so working and then like producing stuff and like finding interviews and stuff during the day and then I would go to bed for half an hour after the radio show go to a lecture or go to a tutorial things like that And then after that I got an offer at the project and I was like “Oh well I can still do radio.” And then the project I can um work from 6:00 a.m till 7:00 p.m every day And I really like I honestly thought I could do it because I like being busy but no one likes being that busy When you’re running on fumes you just start like making all sorts of weird decisions Your brain really rewires in a way that’s like definitely not healthy

  1. Ive worked in radio both on air and in sales. A bunch of insincere half witted egotists and i mean that People think they are simply great based only on their opinion and yes most have emotional turmoil.

  2. You can make bad decisions without ADHD why do these people just embrace their “disability” like it’s their only thing ffs we are all struggling ..diagnosed or not
