This practice, however, can lead to burnout and disconnection.

Personal anecdotes illustrate the profound impact of masking, highlighting how it sometimes blocks authentic connections and opportunities. As the article encourages, understanding and embracing one's ADHD traits can lead to more genuine interactions and a better balance between self-expression and social harmony.
