live your life to its fullest is overrated, cringe and government propaganda.

I don't think it is, as long as you are the one deciding what "fullest" is.

It could even be spending the most amount of time possible with family and friends, or the most amount of time learning LOTR lore.

good point, i think i agree. i was half joking anyway, but on the other hand it's also good to introspect from time to time to understand where my idea of "fullest" came from.

Lol literally me until a year and a half ago when my boyfriend told me he thinks I have ADHD.

Now I'm more like "tomorrow I will do my best and when it fails, I'll try again". It doesn't really fix anything at all, but at least it has given me a tiny bit more peace of mind to finally accept that I don't actually fail on purpose.

Wrong! I was only 27 when I got diagnosed 💪💪

[–] zenforyen@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

Haha, about the same. Now 32 and feel like I'm the best I've ever been since diagnosis and medication 💪

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yep. I wasn’t diagnosed until I was like 35.

Yeah, and what's difficult is that real improvement is possible, but you get stuck in this rut where you view attempts to improve yourself as pointless.

Damn. The ADHD memes need to chill.

Only 30? I'm still waiting at 42...

Nah, before I was diagnosed I was basically a zombie raising from the dead each morning through sheer willpower.

37 just diagnosed. Knew it all the time.
