How many others have waited in line for, well just about anything; yet it seemed as if NO ONE saw you standing there? I can't be the only one. They must know I we are there. I fidget and try to smile, but I know they see the tears on the surface, yet turn away. Maybe they are afraid they may catch ADHD, OCD, or Tourette's... Either way, I just want my burger without a side of ignorance. Thank you.

Just got my ADHD Snapshot and one line in it stopped me cold: every time I write something and then delete it, I'm retaping the mouth of the little girl who got silenced in school. I never connected those two things before. The delete reflex isn't self-sabotage - it's a protection pattern that's been running since I was six. Wild what happens when someone actually reads your words back to you.
