ADHD brains are full of ideas and no spoons. Here's how I use creativity, humour, and a therapist-made card deck to trick myself into focus.

I’ve worn more masks than I can count—some sparkly, some stitched together from other people’s expectations. For years, I didn’t even know I was masking. I just knew I felt like an outsider in my own life.

When I discovered I was neurodivergent, everything clicked. But it wasn’t until I stumbled across Jungian psychology—and his idea of the Persona—that I truly began to understand the performance I’d been living. And why I’d been so drawn to people like David Bowie, who turned shifting identity into art.

This is a story about archetypes, unmasking, and finding yourself in the parts you were taught to hide.
