Y'all, it takes zero effort to understand that not all our brains work the same way. Please give us grace; we don't give enough of it to ourselves already.

Not all neurotypicals are going to be that tolerant, but they're not all going to stand up for us either. Confrontation is exhausting, I get it. I've lived 30 years of shame and guilt over my attention regulation and focus issues and thinking I was just lazy or a bad person. I'm tired.

Here was a neurotypical (I think) who saw me and assumed I didn't care or want to pay attention, when it was the complete opposite. They made me feel ashamed for taking care of my needs, and it was only when I advocated for myself, that they had some sort of understanding.

"Well, if it helps you pay attention, then I understand", they said and patted me on the back. Had a pleasant conversation with them afterwards about ADHD, and they apologized for even saying anything and we parted ways amicably. This is why ADHD awareness and advocacy is so important.

So yeah, if y'all ever need proof that guinea pigs are generally much happier living with or next to members of their own species, there it is! I'm a very happy piggy mom right now! ☺️
