Reposted by Emily Farris
I wrote this ode to @thatemilyfarris.bsky.social ADHD memoir I'll Just Be Five More Minutes last year. Seemed Women’s History Month worthy for @opensecretsmag.bsky.social since it’s part of my professional history.

God, grant me the strength to no longer be charmed by men who’ve never been to therapy. (I know, I know. I’m an atheist and totally fucked here.)

A year ago today, this essay was published in Lyz Lenz’s Men Yell at Me. On its surface, it’s an essay about choosing my career over my marriage—but really, it’s an essay about choosing myself.
