I've to be honest haven't heard about demisexuality before, I had a friend who was demisexual and I talked to him about the way I felt and my experiences, he pointed me into this direction and I did further research on this topic and that's ultimately how I got here ^^ What about you?

Well, I was having some issues related to my ADHD while also dealingwith some personal issues.

I'm sorry for you that you had to deal with those difficulties :<

(...) came to the realization that I was demi-grey.

I'm glad that you came to this point! It also took me a while from thinking "I'm awkward, I'm not normal" to "wait, I'm not awkward, I'm just demisexual, this actually makes sense and is normal". Mostly since I haven't researched it since I didn't really think about that I might not be the only feeling the way I do.

It wasn’t easy as I had to unlearn some assumptions about how the world worked.

I think many of us had to do this at some point, I'm glad you achieved it!
