Yeah... I don't know if they'd care. Honestly, giving myself slack and accepting this as part of who I am right now has been such a life changer for me. The sad part, though, is it limits opportunites for which I might otherwise be a good fit.
You see, this is where childhood "trauma" helps, I have a vivid memory of being called out for arriving late to school (when i was 6-7) because I didn't live that far away and so I should easily be able to arrive on time.
So the social anxiety with being judged about being late just overpowers whatever the random shit my brain wants to do in the morning.
That sucks. And that should have been a conversation with your parents.
