Opportunity cost of ADHD. When you don’t use a lid.
In this brief monologue, the speaker recounts a Monday morning that began positively but quickly unraveled, likely due to ADHD‑related challenges. They pause to advise themselves to take a deep breath, label the situation as merely a "mess" or "shake," and postpone crying until later. The narrative captures a moment of self‑recognition of emotional overload and a simple coping cue to manage the immediate distress.
