This is me to a T. I've spent decades feeling like a horrible person because I don't keep up with friends once I move elsewhere (and I've moved a lot). I'm still too ashamed to reach out just yet. But the validation that I'm feeling just from reading this article is an unexpected gift. Thank you for addressing this overlooked aspect of ADHD.

Montane is supposed to be mindframe, i.e., mindset.

That's me with old school snail mail and slightly old school email. I wish it wasn't so. I get to writing something and I go into something like a dissertation of my life, but I get distracted and don't finish until, maybe, months later. Thankfully, I'm better with text messages because I either read someone's novella that I don't have the montane to read or I write the first volume of the saga no one, and I mean almost No One, wants to read. Yeah, I'm that person. Thank you for this article that helps me understand myself better.
