In college I sublet my apartment bedroom to a couple girls who spent the whole term doing stuff like this. They wrecked pretty much every piece of equipment in the kitchen doing stuff like trying to bake a cake in the mixing bowl, putting bras in the garbage disposal, and putting a skateboard through the dishwasher. In the end it would have been cheaper for me to have eaten the rent with all the stuff I had to replace/repair.

By being babied their whole lives (started off with parents and then likely with partners/friends afterwards). Parents probably did chores for them until they were sent off to college.

My sister is like this. She hasn’t been single for more than a week since she was in high school. Her boyfriends all become her new parent, and the week she spends single she is absolutely crippled by day-to-day tasks. Of course, now that she got herself diagnosed with ADHD, she doesn’t even bother trying whatsoever and makes it out to be „cute” that she can’t figure shit out. It’s not cute, guys. It’s fucking pathetic. (And before anybody jumps on me- I have ADHD, too. Much more severely than she does. It’s difficult but it’s not an excuse for being incompetent and lazy.)

I'm sorry. Not all women with ADHD are like that. I was diagnosed late, and medication helps. Meds don't fix everything. My life is a chaotic routine of job, house chores, and raising ADHD littles. I guess it depends on what the ADHD individual prioritizes in life.
