Is there any correlation between having ADHD or autism and not letting things go that other people have done or said wrong towards you? Why does it happen and how can I stop? I’ve never let go of things that happened years ago, even things that happened during childhood. I know it’s doing damage to me, and others have said I am “crazy” and other judgemental terms because of it. I don’t understand why the passage of time makes anything less bad? It bothers me just as much or still a lot whether it happened last week or a year ago.
