'Being Sensitive is One of the Gifts of ADHD'

Being a woman with ADHD, I fell out of the “sensitive tree” and hit every branch on the way down. When I am criticized or make a mistake, I look back and assess all the negative remarks I have received in my life. I often conclude that I’m a disaster in a matter of seconds.

My sensitivity extends to animals. At work, as a zookeeper and a naturalist, I am the first of my colleagues to notice if something isn’t right with an animal.have a feeling there is something wrong with him,” my boss said, after checking over a meerkat I was worried about.“Well, the other guys have looked at him, too, and they say he seems fine. Just keep an eye on him.

Being sensitive to what makes people laugh is what made Jim Carrey a comedy legend. Growing up, his mother battled depression. To lift her spirits, he would wear tap shoes to bed in case she needed cheering up in the middle of the night.

Me too, thank you

This tweet came at exactly the right time for me. Thank you ♥️
