He wasn’t the worst hero ever, he knew that. He had things he could do. He could let the worries and the dozens of unfinished projects alone, most days. That changed when his team got thrashed.
Oof. Sounds like a motivating force at best, but at worst… let’s just say ADHDers are prone to depression.
Thoughts like that had been plaguing him since the Endbringer event a week ago. He couldn’t shake the notion that he was in the running for the weakest member of the team.
To be fair, there’s not that much competition for that title anymore.
The notion that he was dumb, second-rate. That this loss, here, was his fault, because he had dropped the ball.
Poor Kid.
The people of this city deserve a better hero, a more focused one.
Ouch.
So, uh…
I’m quite convinced Wildbow has AD(H)D now. That, or knows people who do and consulted them thoroughly. Because this is all damn accurate and covers ADHD problems you don’t usually see in fiction. I am very grateful to him for this representation.
