I was inspired by the fact that that some people don’t get help when they have ADHD. I hope people see when they read this that it’s not just fidgeting.

They tell you this every day
it’s just some fidgeting
Get over yourself
Stop blaming it on your ADHD
It is just some fidgeting
Stop acting like you can’t focus
No, I won’t take you to the doctor
It’s just some fidgeting
You don’t need pills to focus
It’s just some fidgeting
Don’t act special
It’s just some fidgeting
You don’t know what it is
It’s not just fidgeting
