ok not to be adhd on main but if you even JOKINGLY make fun of me for my interests thats it. i wont ever be able to trust you again because im positive youre constantly judging me and making fun of me behind my back. thats just the way it is!!
to all the people vaguing people in the tags: get better friends
it ABSOLUTELY is, adhd and autistic experiences overlap so so much and i have both so this post is solidarity
If I may add, as an ADHD person if you insult (even jokingly) something I enjoy, I will no longer enjoy that thing as much. Every time I watch that show you called cringe I remember that you did that. You said the writing was unfunny, so now I donāt laugh at the jokes as much, even alone, and I feel like I shouldnāt enjoy it anymore if itās bad. (And then I also believe you think Iām unfunny and my sense of humor is just bad) So I have to rationalizeĀ āOk I know this part is awkward but I like it a little sometimesā in my head to justify my enjoyment, and that just makes the whole experience less fun. Iāll never express strong interest in something around you again.Ā
Sharing hyperfixations is a VULNERABLE act of trust, and if it goes badly, we just go right back to being ashamed of being happy.
WAIT SO THIS ISNT NORMAL??????????? I THOUGH EVERYONE HAD THAT.
