After revamping this newsletter to focus on joy and happiness and magic then updating regularly for five months, I disappeared. While this is absolutely a stock move from the ADHD playbook, it had less to do with the immediate effects of my disease and more to do with needing more space and time to process the previous 40 years or so of my life pre-diagnosis and medication. There’s an adage in Alcoholics Anonymous to avoid making any big life decision for a year after you first become sober because it takes at least that long to properly come to terms with who you were and what you did under the influence of the disease. Well, it’s been almost exactly a year from when I was diagnosed and started the healing process and that seems about right.
