The tribulations are genuine

This is so immensely relatable and puts perfectly into words a huge chunk of the problems I faced in school with my grades- throughout my entire life - not just college. I never really could figure out how to say this before. The cumulative frustration of repeated failure and hopelessness was absolutely crushing and eventually led me to drop out of my original HS in my 'super senior' year.

I love the universal gaming experience of “oh this game doesn’t have sitting so I’ll stand on this chair and crouch”

honestly minecraft is a good game and i will never forgive the internet for making people feel bad for liking a game about fucking mining and building houses

Ya know what? Good post OP.

Unborn babies are the only people allowed to kick pregnant women.

The simple act of NOT replying to an annoying comment online often takes more mental energy than writing something

adhd is:  choices are so stressful, like the more i have the more likely i am to start panicing and just not make a decision

It feels so good to crawl back into bed after your morning pee

People are more focused on looking rich than being rich, thats why they’re poor. Wasting money on stuff that give the appearance of wealth. (source)

ADHD culture is saying “what?” when you heard the question someone asked you but… It didn’t fucking… Register… In the brain? And then you hear the question before they ask again and interrupt them when they’re talking because now you’re An Asshole™ who understands

This is actually a thing, while visual info takes 0.1 seconds to process, auditory infor can take 3 to 4 seconds to process, which is why you ask, and then actually hear the question because your brains only just processed it

I jokingly suggested something similar to my gf called the “3 second rule”. If i don’t respond in 3s, assume I really didn’t hear you.  Tho Im p good at just masking the processing time with UUhhhhHhHhh

Also pro tip for communicating with ADHD people: say the name of the person you want to talk to before you share your thought and wait for them to acknowledge you. That way if we are distracted or otherwise occupied you know can be sure are listening. We very well may still need to process, but it will greatly cut down on the number of times we genuinely didn’t hear a word you just said.
