Thank you for this brave share. I have an artist/writer friend I’m working with who was late-diagnosed with ADHD and has the same struggles with creative projects. I appreciate all the insights I can get on what it’s like.

Hi Fanen. I'm glad you found it helpful. It's a dilemma for a lot of neurodivergent people to be both driven to create and challenged by the creative process. I think it's lovely that you're making an effort to better understand your friend. Too many people don't.

It was so good to 'see' you and It brought back nostalgic memories of our Dream Group. There are undoubtedly mixed emotions having been given a diagnosis of ADHD. I would think of it as a tool and go forward as I see you doing.

You have such facility doing videos...a gift, in my eyes. I hope you'll consider doing more.

Happy Autumn, dear Friend.

Hi Frances! I miss you at dream group! The ADHD testing was interesting. Odd to think you can give yourself away like that by marking sounds and images with a computer click. Thanks for you kind words about the video. I like doing them but can not make myself look at the camera the entire time. I don't know how others do it. Thank you for commenting 💕
