that internal tug of war.

ADHD Chatter

If you live with that type of neuro type, that type of nervous system, which can be very confusing, then the accommodations that work well for that are very unique.

ADHD Chatter
23 AuDHD Accommodations You Don't Know About (But REALLY Need)

I personally do have a shower every day.

ADHD Chatter

ADHD Chatter
