I'm happy for my work to be used, but please be polite and credit me for my writing or show that it's a remix of my original piece. Thank you 😊

All my life, I thought the problem was me... But in reality, it was just ADHD...
Miss diagnosed too many times to remember... it extinquished my flame, to not even an ember...
I feel this weight has been lifted... my mentality's shifted... I no longer see grey... how did I ever live this way...? 
I'm no longer the villain... my hearts no longer spilling... because I can finally see... that my condition does not define me...

Pumped full of pills for depression and anxiety... I was denied the clarity of free thinking sobriety... Bi-polar or maybe borderline personality... I've lived 37 years without knowing my reality...

I've been playing life in hard mode, never knowing how to win... Always tearing myself apart from behind the walls within...

Inside my brain, I feel a resurgence... I'm ready to embrace my neurodivergence...
I know this world wasn't designed for people like me... but that doesn't mean I can't live free... 
I'm responsible for my own choices... I never had to follow any other voices... 
Even if I was misled or misguided... perhaps these feelings just coincided... 
With the fact that I never truly understood myself...   or validated my own needs for my mental health...

I feel this weight has been lifted... my mentality's shifted... I no longer see grey... how did I ever live this way...? 
I'm no longer the villain... my hearts no longer spilling... because I can finally see... that my condition does not define me...

I now embrace my hyperactivity... because it's the source of my creativity... 
Ever since I was five... I would feel so alive... when I could deep dive... all the topics where I'd strive... free of judgement, I will thrive... I'm just trying to survive... I'm the bee that left the hive...  I'm the vehicle, so I'll drive...
