Occasionally replace the parenthesis with a semicolon – or dashes – and you can get away with it more often.
The thing is - and I say that from experience (being somewhat on the ADHD spectrum myself) - that there are no limits to how many of these you can use; or at least that's how it feels to me (sorry!).
Beautiful sentence using all of them!
I am guilty of overusing em dashes — I just think they're aesthetically pleasing, even if they're often unnecessary.
i do this; i just have so much to say, and there are only so many conjugations and commas you can get away with -- without it becoming a run-on sentence (i may have a run-on mind).
That's called ADHD, but I like the name, so we can use both I guess.
Semicolon ftw
