Is it an ADHD thing to need time alone more than neurotypical people do? And if so, how do make sure you get it?
I haven’t been diagnosed with ADHD but am starting to suspect that I have it.
One thing I know about myself is that I REALLY struggle if I can’t have time alone and it’s also the main thing that I know that the people in my life struggle to accept about me. It makes me feel really bad not getting enough time alone and not feeling like it’s OK with other people if I take it.
Not sure if this is something people with ADHD relate to. Maybe you guys can tell me?
My wife and I have a friend that’s an introvert like we are. Sometimes he’ll come over and we might play a bunch of Mario Party and Mario Kart, but other times we will all play separately on our handhelds or laptops and chill while something plays on YouTube. Sublime. Don’t need to constantly have a conversation going and there’s no drinking involved.
