Don't worry it's not a real situation it's just a shrink in the internet.
So I've just read a shrink talking about ADHD and trauma/PTSD. He said that the correlation between ADHD and PTSD is very high. Then he proceeded to discuss why it is so. And he basically said it's because ADHD PEOPLE ARE EMOTIONAL. People with ADHD exaggerate what happens to them because they are dysregulated and this results in trauma. They will ruminate about things that a healthy person would quickly forget about.
And I'm like fuck no. Yes we're emotionally dysregulated. But OBJECTIVELY we have harder lives. When you can't focus you struggle at school and with people. People think you're lazy or malicious. And if people don't like you they will harm you. It works like that. You harm people that annoy you. Also we people with ADHD sometimes screw ourselves on our own because we do stupid things while seeking dopamine. All those things increase risk of trauma.
And shrinks wonder why people ctb. Like imagine you come to a shrink after something bad and he tells you that you're emotional. Because there are people who wouldn't mind.
Like why do you care you were bullied for months on end it's over get over it!
Thankfully he aint my shrink.
