What If Your ADHD Brain is Just a Wizard with Too Many Spells to Cast?
Imagine your mind as a wizard’s tower—not one of those tidy, Hogwarts-style affairs with neatly labeled potion bottles, but more like a chaotic arcane library where spellbooks float mid-air, portals to random dimensions keep opening, and your familiar (re: your last functional brain cell) is currently MIA because it got distracted by a shiny rock.
