Do you think it's a
Speaker 1
big deal to have ADHD? To a certain extent, I think it's a big deal. I think it's a big deal when it comes to learning because most often they're not growing up. My parents would yell at me or get angry with me for not retaining information that they give me. And there was just nothing I can do about it. I couldn't explain myself. If I tried to tell them that I'm sorry, I just forgot. They get angry. It's really hard when it comes to that because you can't explain yourself and they wouldn't understand even if you told them. They'd just brush it off and be like, no, I don't know. Your problem is that you don't pay attention. That's your problem right there. That's exactly what I'm telling you. I can't pay attention. I'm trying to really. Well, it's
Speaker 2
interesting because they knew that you had ADHD. How about now as an adult now that you yourself have now connected the dots and you know that you have ADHD and your mom confirmed that you got diagnosed with ADHD if you have those kinds of conversations with your parents. Do you ever say now like, mom, I have ADHD?
Speaker 1
No, not really. It's not something that comes out a lot. Not anymore because I don't live with her. So when I do this or her, we don't talk about it. But my dad on the other hand has begun to acknowledge it because I work with him sometimes and he tells me something like I said, I forget it immediately. He makes fun of it. But in the nice way, we in the Hispanic culture have a bully culture where we clown on each other, but it's with love. He'd be telling me things like, why don't you pay attention? Which are attention deficit happiness. And you know. Hey, that's some
Speaker 2
progress though, right?
