So many things I read about adult ADHD rang true for me. I get distracted easily and have trouble concentrating on dense materials and tedious tasks; that is, if they aren’t interesting to me — if they are, I become obsessive and can’t let go of the idea.

Part of the problem with not having a job is that there’s a constant feeling of instability. While working friends often comment that they wish they had the free time you currently have (the grass is always greener!), the lack of structure can make you feel a little out of control.

No relationship is immune to the pitfalls of routine. No matter how much love exists between two people, without gratitude, it fizzles.
