My Experience with ADD, Depression, and Correspondence Chess in c/chess@lemmy.ml

I LOVE correspondence chess. I used to do it when I was younger. I had a few coworkers that were older than I and we used to play during lunch. Both retired, but we kept the tradition alive with correspondence - mostly email, but we went old school a few times for kicks. Sadly, we’ve sort of grown apart and only meet up about once a year for lunch.
