I’m not sure if this is an ADHD related thing so I want some feedback.

For the longest time whenever I try to communicate an idea, a process, a plan, a piece of information … I’m oftentimes either not taken serious or people misunderstand me.

I know for myself that I sometimes skip steps in my explanation because I feel they’re too obvious to bother explaining. But sometimes it’s ridiculous to the point where I feel like people are out to dismiss me not on the basis of the information I’m providing.

Does this resonate with anyone?

Edit: thanks for all the feedback! This has given me some material to work with.

    Helpful. Slow pacing isn’t easy especially with the risk of forgetting the bigger picture. I’m trying to learn it.

    What helps me is trying to put ‘their’ idea in a different perspective or scale to match what I want them to see. If I still have some time before losing them, maybe add few comparisons.

    I forgot what I ultimately wanted to say because typing took over lol.
