Why Can't I?

Rant/Vent

For a while, but especially recently, I've just been despairing and feeling so jealous of people who can... just do things. Whilst I've been aware of my ADHD it's been because I wish I could act like a neurotypical and just do stuff when I need to like uni work, chores, errands, etc. But honestly, recently, it's been everyone. I envy my boyfriend (NT) who's like a cat and seems to land on his feet no matter how much he messes up, I envy my best friend who struggles with depression but still manages to rise to the task, and I envy my own mum who only pursued her own ADHD diagnosis after I had confided in her about my own suspicions about myself.

I’m in my first year of uni and so when I moved into the flat I’m living in I didn’t know anyone I’d be living with, however I got super lucky and get on really well with my flatmates. There are 2 that I have genuinely become really close friends and they’ve honestly made my uni experience better than I could have imagined. I’ll call them “Mary” and “Kim” for the sake of neatness.

Recently, though, they’ve been having a bit of drama because of Mary getting close to one of Kim’s best friends and I think she may be trying to process that, which I understand especially because it seems like her mental health hasn’t been incredible lately, so.

Well me and Mary went out recently and we invite
