just relatable adhd things :-)

not being able to articulate your ideas properly

or not doing so because social interactions in general

time management feat. his best pal forgetfulness

having others rely on you, oh shit

or when it’s a topic which interests you SO YOU WANNA DO ALL THE STUFF YOURSELF. NO, YOU CAN’T DO THIS ‘CAUSE I’M ALREADY DOING THIS… AND THAT… THAT, TOO

and yes, resulting in you ending up with too many tasks, again. stress breakdown, here i come

Things like star wars and star trek, which are often thought of as “nerdy” or “geeky”, were huge with the general population even when they first came out.  Being intelligent and academically successful is a commonly admired and desired trait.  Media makes it seem like so many people were being bullied for liking geeky stuff or being smart, despite the these qualities being common and/or desirable.

But the thing is, people arent bullied for just for liking things or being smart.  Theyre bullied for liking things too much.  For knowing too much.  They fixate on things.  They “dont know when to shut up”. Theyre awkward. They don’t socialize normally. They dont fit in. They become a target and their interests or intelligence or whatever else become weapons that their harassers use against them.

This is the same exact shit that autistic kids, kids with ADHD, and other neurodivergent people are bullied for today.

1. They can’t leave their house 2. Time feels like one, long endless day 3. They can’t move on from a traumatic event 4. They don’t know they’re dead.
