On a more serious note... try to be a bit kinder to yourself today. You're not lazy, you're doing your damn best.

There is a lot of overlap in symptoms and in my experience a lot of ADHD adults (maybe especially women) are (mis)diagnosed as depressed before getting ADHD diagnoses and on medications. There can be some differences, like symptoms being continuous throughout your life despite not feeling depressed, having periods of hyper focus, or areas that you excel in.
Plus ADHD and depression are comorbid, so a lot of what we think of as "ADHD symptoms" might be depression symptoms? Idk just a thought π
They both worsen eachother. Depression makes you less motivated and worsens focus, ADHD does the same and you can get depressed because of it, itβs a cycle.
Comorbidity is a bitch like that. Now what is this a symptom of?
