Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting

My wife has ADHD and some wicked rejection dysphoria. I feel bad interrupting because sometimes it makes her feel really badly, but I swear she could talk for an hour without pausing for breath.

I definitely do the same thing when I'm talking about something I'm passionate about though, so like... live and let live.

My wife and I both have this due to unmedicated ADHD. It sucks in arguments when nobody gets to finish but it's kind of awesome for regular conversation, I don't think we would have found each other's company this pleasant if we didn't have it tbh
