I read my (dementia/alzheimers) mother’s journals and they were full of “she’s just so angry” and “I don’t understand why her room is so messy” and “She’s lazy and won’t help with the family business, but I would have been happy to as a teenager.”
I’m like damn mom you were never given language to actually understand me.
Even my sister to this day goes: “Well now that you know you have it you can just come up with strategies to overcome it.” 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
I mean your sister is partly right, you won’t completely forget it’s there but especially nowadays we have lots of things that can help make life easier, and that’s true for a ton of difficulties people have regardless of diagnoses.
The general practice of minimalism makes things soooo much more manageable for me, it reduces the amount of things i have to think about and the amount of distractions around me. It doesn’t magically cure me of inattention, but it takes it from being fairly overhwelming to being merely frustrating.
