Like telling someone who’s missing both legs to get better shoes so they can keep up.
On the flip side, someone with legs isn’t gonna understand the point of prosthetics because it would be totally useless to them.
ADHD has definitely opened my eyes to how much we humans subconsciously assume we know everything based on our own experiences.
Also one of those things is visible and generally comprehensible to others.
Someone getting annoyed because your advice didn't work for them due to their specific mental patterns....is very different from missing a leg.
