Uuh...yeah that's not part of growing up with ADHD, at least not universally in any way...and what's with the bruised legs?
Tldr: inattentiveness, bumping into tons of stuff, and only remembering it when you look at the bruise or someone reminds you.
An explanation that's meant to be humorous because it happens to me and my wife all the time:
"Oh my god, where did THIS bruise come from?"
earlier that day
bump "ow, how did I hit the coffee table..."
bump "fuck that hurt, I swear the counter was another 6 inches over"
smash "FUCK the freezer door closes too quickly!"
has to be reminded of these events to remember tham
This is where im blessed, my body very very rarely bruises so most people have no idea how clumsy I am on a daily basis.
Same, I walked into a vacuum cleaner about 30 minutes ago
