I keep the details of my idiosyncrasies to myself. Folks with ADHD often tell others explicitly.

To my kindred ‘special’ people, do you tell others specifically what makes you different, or do you keep it to yourself? Why?

    Generally speaking I keep everything personal to myself unless it’s to my advantage because I live in America, and America destroys anything/anyone inconvenient for business, so I’m not going to give assholes the ammunition to shoot me with. So no I really don’t share my neurodivergence with people, at least not IRL.
