    “Super power” is obviously an oversimplification, but there are plenty of people with ADHD, like myself, who wouldn’t change it if we could. My justice sensitivity is part of my ADHD, and it’s central to who I am.

      I’ve never seen this as a result of ADHD but as a result of how I was treated throughout my life, in part because of my ADHD. It can’t compensate for the pain, trouble and stress I bring to others and myself because of ADHD, though. Not by a long shot.
