Ask HN: What people skills do you wish you learned earlier in your career?
I was homeschooled from grades K-12 (for those outside the U.S. essentially from age 5 to 18) which in and of itself leads to poorly developed social skills.<p>But I also have ADD. One of the symptoms of ADD is poor impulse control and rejection sensitivity which leads to issues with &quot;emotional intelligence.&quot; So I would advise anyone, if you suspect you may have adult ADD, talk to a physciatrist and figure it out. Fixing underlying mental health problems will improve your professional and personal life!
