I’m a natural at shooting a traditional bow.
I know every edible plant in my area, and some that get you high.
I can find north without a compass, day and night.
I can make a fire from things I can gather in the woods.
I know how to safely fell a tree, split logs and build a shelter with hand tools.
I know how to act around most predators and have experience handling a spear.
I think I’d do reasonably well.
Sometimes I wish I was born in the stone age. My ADHD is completely gone whenever I’m in the wild.

I started reading and was like “okay, sure buddy” then I remembered I have developed a lot of the same skills, including tracking wildlife.
And then I remembered the time I learned to identify clay deposits and to separate out the clay so I could build stuff with it.
So I thought: “wth, this is so weird! Ohh, they have ADHD too… That explains a lot”.
I wasn’t diagnosed at the time, when I was learning to find clay, but that should have been a sign lol
