A loving community that personally knows you and how you operate help of course. Not being along when swimming or someone else driving for example. Or you living a life where you don’t even need to drive a vehicle daily.
Exhaustion and depression are a result of constantly being overwhelmed, hypervigilant, and so on.
Your environment and activity can change your neurochemistry in a major way.
Let’s say you lived in a multi generational family. You don’t need to do all the laundry and household chores by yourself, nor do you need to manage them. Singing silly songs with a companion during chores make them more easily doable for someone with ADHD.
Wrong. Absolutely incorrect. Stop reading whatever self help bullshit that told you that.
This sounds like absolute hell. Not all of us have good relationships with our families. Most of the people with ADHD have at least one parent with ADHD, and guess who has problems regulating emotions. And guess what kind of risky behaviors the children will engage in.
Even though there are more people to do chores, there are more people producing dishes, laundry, trash. It's a wash at best for neurotypical people, but a bunch of people that have a hard time initiating tasks? Again, doesn't seem like a rosy picture to me.
