Description
Making (and keeping) friends is hard. And as a neurodivergent adult? It can feel even harder. I've learned some things that have helped me make and keep friends... and I've learned a lot of it from my friend (and friendship expert!) Caroline Maguire. I've been finally able to enjoy having good friends in my life and I want to share some of what I learned that helped me get there. #adhd #adhdandfriendship #ndrelationships #mentalhealth
