Slow down and be more mindful. Your list sounds like a good plan. If you aren't actively treating the ADHD then do that.

Don't over apologize.

So is OP saying she mixed up the women because they are black?  Educate me, please.[/quote]

Op here. Yes, the concern is that I confused the women because of their race. Whether or not that is why I confused them, that is how it felt / came across to my manager. [/quote]

I don't think you did this based on race but your manager thinks you did.  I think it's BS, but every training will tell you it's about how the other person *feels*, so unfortunately, if you try to defend yourself, they'll just think worse of you (which is wrong and sucks).  Just move on and be more careful.

Frankly, I think this microaggression stuff is BS.  Basically people assuming the worst of other people when often they do not mean what you are getting all offended about.  Half the examples they give in the trainings are not microaggressions, they are straight out aggressions.  It's just muddying the waters.[/quote]
