I have ADHD and middle school was a pretty rough couple of years. Kids turn into complete sociopaths for that period myself included. When you already find fitting in and getting along really hard it’s even worse. I was at my absolutely worst behavior and got suspended several times. Tonight I remembered a couple of instances of me repeating a really crude s***** reference to a girl’s face to get a rise out of her, and telling another she had nice t***. It’s been 16 years but I’m afraid someone is going to remember what a little p************ I was at times, specifically these or maybe something else I don’t remember. I’ve spent the intervening time becoming a better person but I’m afraid, probably irrationally, that at any time someone could show up and put me on trial for being a shithead when I was 13.
