    This is my reason for my answer to the pro-choice question. It is only a baby once you have decided to carry it to term. Before that decision it isn’t.

    Dual homicide if you kill a pregnant woman who wanted a child. Not a baby when aborting an unwanted pregnancy.

    I’m in the exact same boat, except I only recently started (1 year ago) my journey to diagnosis after learning that I’ve had anxiety and depression for most of my (30 year) life without knowing that the gloom in my life isn’t normal.

    Now I think Adhd might be the reason behind it all, as so much of what I’ve read about Adhd fits with what I struggle with.

    I always just lived my life thinking everyone else’s life was just as shit as mine, because I didn’t lock myself in the bedroom like “real depressed people”.

    Adhd kids get told negative things way more often that other kids, and that is traumatic. Undiagnosed Adhd leads to anxiety and depression because of it, which makes it very similar to ptsd. But since it’s chronic and over a long time period, it is separate from ptsd, as the cause is Adhd, and not the trauma itself.

    Chatgpt answer:

    Yes, “reckful” is a real word, although it is rarely used in modern English. It means being thoughtful, careful, or prudent, essentially the opposite of “reckless.” It comes from the same root as “reck,” which means to care or pay attention to.

    Examples of Usage:

    In older texts, “reckful” might describe someone who is cautious or considerate of consequences: “He was reckful in his approach, weighing every decision carefully.”

    Why It’s Uncommon:

    “Reckless” became the dominant term in English, and “reckful” fell out of common usage. Today, terms like “careful,” “prudent,” or “mindful” are more likely to be used in its place.

    So while “reckful” is technically correct and would make sense in context, it might sound archaic or poetic to most modern English speakers.
