My mother never really taught me how to clean. As a single parent, she had enough on her mind. My father, who had ADHD and didn’t really get how to himself, just yelled at me when I couldn’t do chores.
I live in filth now and have no idea what to do about it. It takes a huge toll on my mental and physical health, and no one will help me.
This adult ADHD child of an ADHD mom struggles with all the things that I’m supposed to be helping my own ADHD kids with. I’m afraid I’m raising kids who won’t be able to care for themselves.
