Anyone else came across the video? There's an illustration and even a children's book now I think. I've ran across the video on my feed a few times now, and I think it beautifully captures the experience of being autistic and/or ADHD but not discovering it until adulthood.

I feel so very seen. I was around age 25 I think, when I first discovered I wasn't neurotypical. It felt like all my friends were moving on and being successful in life while I was just stuck and unable to do the same things.
