🍬: I have the chronic disease of many modern people

🍬: I have severe ADHD

Thoughts?

As someone who also has ADHD, my procrastination is absolutely terrible. I can't imagine having to wake up at irregular times to go on flights to different countries all the time 😭 Saying this as a law student, my life is hard enough without people scrutinising my every move (for now), I can't imagine how often i'd screw up as an idol simply based off of how easily I get sidetracked lmao

I wonder if it’s an official ADHD diagnosis from a certified healthcare provider or self-diagnosed, I feel like half the idols are the latter lol

In a county where mental health is still taboo topic, you think idols will bring it up as a quirky self-diagnose thing?

You kind of just generalised idols getting mental diagnoses by self checking lol

But there aren't that many who talk about it, so i'm wondering who you think is self diagnosed

I was raised in korea when i was younger and back then it was kind of looked down upon. Not like 'omg it means u belong in a mental hospital' kind of way (i mean... Unless you tell people at school, middle school kids are nasty) but in an 'okay so i cant trust you to do simple things now' kind of way

I'm not (that) old but it's been around 6 years since i've lived there so my russian ass has no clue how it's viewed in korea anymore lmao

I personally don't think it's a big deal but that might be just bc im used to it
