the most helpful thing i have ever seen from neurodivergent internet spaces is “THERE ARE OTHER TIMES OF DAY TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH”. this has genuinely saved me from executive dysfunction spirals so many times.

hey can we talk at some point about how having adhd makes you way more likely to be depressed because literally nothing you need to do to be a functioning adult gives you any happiness at all
like this is an actual statistical problem
The adhd urge to use parenthesis in every sentence (because every thought comes with additional bonus content)
Nah man having intense hyperfixations as a neurodivergent person is probably the most isolating feeling in the world
Like all I can think about is this specific thing but I'm not allowed talk about it because it doesn't interest anyone else around me. So instead it just builds up to the point where I feel like I'm going to explode
can we talk about the shame that comes along with having ADHD?
the shame that hits you when you walk around your messy, cluttered room, knowing you don’t yet have the motivation or hyperfocus to clean it, even though you want to.
the shame that hits you when you retell a story for the thousandth time and the person you’re talking to gets bored or annoyed or confused by it, cuz you couldn’t remember you had told it before.
the shame that hits you when you ask someone to repeat what they’re saying multiple times because you keep forgetting or you just can’t hear them.
the shame that hits you when you forget something super important after you leave for a trip, and you ask to go back for it.
the shame that hits you when you know you’re overanalyzing something someone said to you, but it still hurts.
the shame that hits you when you snap at people who are just talking to you while you’re hyperfocused.
the shame that hits you when you realize you don’t remember jackshit about your life, you don’t have any memories, and you wonder what it was all like.
the shame that hits you when someone asks you to just shut up or sit still after you were just expressing your emotions, your happiness even, but were just a little too loud about it.
all the shame. over everything. we should talk about that all more.

DAY 2
18 DAYS TILL MY BIO EXAM :(
Unfortunately, I didn’t accomplish as much as I wanted to today. I went over the drugs used for different endocrine disorders, I was planning to go over the reproductive system, but that didn’t happen…
Regardless of that I still had a good day and felt happy which is always great. Especially because I’m hosting a Mario themed party with my friends tomorrow, I may not post but hopefully I can study for an hour or two tomorrow evening.
Byeeee <3
Some tips and tricks I use to be productive through my ADHD:
The “eh might as well” method. If I’m going to the kitchen to eat might as well bring all the cups from my room too
Make it inconvenient to ignore. If I have clean laundry that needs to be put away, I will put the basket in my doorway. Now it’s inconvenient for me to sidestep it. I also do this with my homework.
Hiding or making it hard to access distractions. I can slip into doom scrolling on TikTok so what I did is add the fingerprint requirement to open and removed it from my homepage. Now I have to go through 3< steps to get into it.
Make things convenient. I can get overwhelmed by my clothes so in my closet I have a shelf dedicated to comfort clothes. Pj pants and hoodies mostly, that I can quickly grab and throw on when I need them.
Use the “don’t see, don’t exist” to your advantage. Most of my crafting supplies sit in the same drawer under my bed. They are (kinda) hidden so I don’t get distracted.
Some other random tips
I sort my shirts by graphic, plain or under shirt and sweaters/blouses.
I have my quick grab n go pants next to my most used jackets
I hope these help
All of you complain about overstimulation and sensory overload
We need to talk about under stimulation. I’m not saying I want to be overloaded with information. No I mean when I get panic attacks because there is not enough self stimulation in a situation. I have to walk out of meetings to pace around and think to calm myself down because my fight or flight response has activated from being not being able to stim.
I get so anxious when I cannot listen to music or have something playing in the background because I need stimulation that I choose to have and which I have control over
It physically hurts my brain.
