ADHD and Job Loss: It's Not a Failure
2025-04-25

For those with ADHD, job loss is a possibility, and it's okay. The author, having been fired once and quitting four times, reframes job changes as learning experiences. Typical workplaces are designed for neurotypical individuals, and ADHD traits often clash with expectations, leading to misunderstandings from employers. Getting fired isn't a reflection of self-worth, but rather a compatibility issue. The author advises focusing on understanding one's needs and finding a better work fit, and encourages readers not to excessively worry about job security.
