This ADHD / ADD poem is about those moments when it feels like everyone else has life figured out, but you don’t. If you live with ADHD, I’m sure you know this feeling very well. This poem explores the weight of comparison, the spiral of self-doubt, and the experience of feeling stuck while others seem to keep moving forward. This piece is a gentle reminder that even if it looks like everyone else is coping better, your journey is valid. Struggling doesn’t make you weak; it makes you human. You are still capable, strong, and resilient enough to move through your challenges. For anyone with ADHD, ADD, or a neurodivergent mind who has ever felt behind, this poem offers compassion, encouragement, and a spark of hope.

Welcome,

My name is Sandhya.

I'd like to share a poem I wrote about limiting beliefs.

Everyone else can and I can't.

This poem is about those moments when it feels like everybody else has it figured out and you don't.

And if you have ADHD,

I'm sure you'll know this feeling very well.

It's about recognising that feeling stuck or filled with self-doubt is completely normal and remembering that even if others seem to be coping better,

You are still capable and strong enough to move through those struggles.

No,

You're not alone.

My head is filled with doubt.

Everybody else has figured it out.

Everyone else can.

It's plain to see.

But that doesn't mean it can't be me.

I'm more than my struggles,

More than my pain.

I'll move through chaos,

Storms and rain.

When the world feels inside out,

I'll keep going.

There's no doubt.
