Kubbra Sait Inspires: I’m ADHD And Fully Functional

MUMBAI- Actor Kubbra Sait has opened up about her journey with Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), saying it is not a limitation but a “super power.”

Kubbra Sait shared a candid video in which she spoke about years of therapy that helped her better understand her mind. She said embracing ADHD has allowed her to tap into her creativity, focus and individuality.

She said, “I just discovered that my ADHD is not a problem. It’s actually a superpower. Yeah, and I’m realizing this just now, and honestly, I think it explains a lot. Yeah, because my brain holds a bunch of contradictions at the same time.”

She added that she feels everything deeply.

“Everything’s big—love, anger, excitement, heartbreak. It’s all there. Maybe that’s why I like doing what I do, right? And I understand that sometimes it can be just too much for certain people. But then I want to ask you this: what if it’s not just “too much”? Maybe it’s just a different operating system.”

She further said, “Because, you know, I’m understanding this—that there is a structure inside all this madness. I mean, it’s messy. It’s like one messy Excel sheet.”

Kubbra Sait said therapy helped her realize that her brain grows through community and that she learns through people.

“And I was raised entirely the opposite—I was raised to be hyper-independent. But my brain thrives in community. It grows in conversations. It thrives in contradictions because, I think, as ADHD people, we don’t ignore inconsistencies. We can see them, and we feel the truth quickly. And that is power.”

The actress said that if someone has an ADHD brain, “maybe it’s not something to fix. Maybe it’s something to unlock.”

She wrote in the caption: “Goood morningggg Hooomans… I am defo a fully functional ADHD brain. This subject took some talking into… but WOAH! just felt like saying that, all these years of therapy have given me clarity, an ability to focus and to see the coolness of my own inner voice.”

She added: “I am more confident and happy to be alive, now more than ever! Maybe I was working against it… and I needed to find method through the madness… so, “let’s talk…” seemed an ok thing to do So take a hear and let’s confirm I am NOT the only one out here in the big world?” (IANS)
