Is the answer helpful? (That is, will knowing the answer enable me to make things better, or just make me uncomfortable?)

When I put it all together it was nice - it made sense and so that made me feel better. I felt like it was in large part a sociological phenonemon and so wasn't entirely my fault - even though I had to deal with people who were convinced it was and even so I felt validated and also could see how much better/easier it would be to actually be able to voice what I want/need. Then I also learned that what you say and how you say it will have to vary according to importance and who you're talking to (ie. a doctor versus your family - aka in my case people with ADD). And there are still times that people don't/won't understand me - so I've found that then I can just accept that because I understand me and I know that I did as much as humanly possible on my end.
