Dearest #ADHD friends, do an audit of your projects. We over-commit easily because we're excited by novelty, but do the projects we agree to result in tangible benefits to us/or the benefits we anticipated? If not, scale back. Say no. Audit & re-evaluate. A reminder because I need one myself today.

Nothing like travel to make me incredibly aware of how ADHD makes my sense of time vastly different than non-ADHD folks.

If you consider yourself an ally of disabled students, faculty, and staff, ask yourself how many barriers you've challenged in your workplace, department, office, lab. Disclosing #disability in and of itself is often a challenge for disabled folks. Every time we have to explain our disability in relation to an inaccessible form or discriminatory policy, that's work. You can identify and challenge those barriers too.
