AdayFellow #ADHDers (and other #neurodivergent folks):
Do you find it easier to live on your own, or with a partner/roommate? And why?
On my own
With my partner / roommate

RJ@Aday only really just discovered that I may have AuDHD but having a wonderful and understanding wife who is helping me with organisation is amazing!
Eric Gerlach@Aday I voted but didn't reply yet: I find having others around provides useful social referencing, and that keeps me motivated and pulls me out of hyperfocus more easily.
When I'm on my own I tend to go deeper into hyperfocus, which can be very dangerous for getting things done, even if its great for learning about the history of railroad mergers in North America.
@egerlach I feel you. That’s really one of the most useful benefits.
Just the other night I went to sleep at 6 AM working on a personal project 🙃 and I’m not proud of it.
This is why I don’t like when some people say things like hyper focus are actually a “super power”.
