I struggle to maintain friends and I think a lot of this is due to my adhd. It is deeply depressing to me that I know I will eventually fuck up and forget to reply or worse, forget that we were supposed to meet up. I’ve done this so many times and I hate it. I try so hard to avoid it by putting things in my calendar as soon as it’s confirmed with multiple reminders but things still slip through this system. I either forget to put it in or I can’t until there’s a set time, and then I forget to arrange the time. This always leads the person to feel like I don’t care and don’t put in any effort when the reality is that I’m crippled with guilt and shame every time this happens. It has cost me many potential friendships. I would appreciate any advice
