I've been realizing that a lot of what I thought was my personality was not only ADHD, but all the precautions I took to hide it. I even do most of it without realizing! Masking ADHD is extremely exhausting and muddying my sense of self.
Most people are still surprised when I say I have ADHD. It's not that I hide it on purpose - a lot of it is ingrained into me in order to avoid ridicule and trouble. Here are more ways I (consciously or not) hide my ADHD!

The incorrect and negative beliefs we can get from years of negative feedback not knowing we have ADHD or how it affects our lives. While not everything is solely caused by ADHD, it can affect us and our comorbidities in many, many ways. Good news is, treating ADHD can do wonders

I wish more people knew how affected our emotions and emotional responses are by ADHD. Everyone will experience their ADHD differently, so feel free to cross out what applies to you!
I could never figure out why I'm so lazy - but always so exhausted. I always try to make things right, just to get them wrong all over again. This is one of the things that really make me question myself.
ADHD & memory problems
I have so many interests but can never start on any of them. Or, I keep starting projects just to abandon them half way through. More contradicting ADHD things (that drive me nuts) #webcomic #procreate
Uhh, did I ever post this?
When ADHD isn't a lack of focus, but an unhealthy surplus of it (1/2 - pages 4+5 in comments)
ADHD behavior can be full of contradictions. I often see people give reasons as to why someone else can't have it and almost every time that reason either doesn't contradict ADHD, or can be even more of a sign for it.
ADHD makes it really hard for me to form an identity. Things I thought I love are hard for me to start, and I keep doing things I wish I wouldn't.
