Maybe you and I are open to hearing about new and interesting things. Great!

But thanks to ADHD, I am prone to acting a little too excited and can sometimes overshare.

Then, when I finally notice the discomfort of my interlocutor, I feel acute embarrassment for being such a weirdo. And that is just no fun at all, ya know?

Far better to keep the ol’ mask on and say as little as possible until I get to know someone better.

I can always find people into whatever specific hobby I am into if I want to geek out so it’s all good.
