Adult ADHD Ramblings

It's true of literally all of her clients. She works with a lot of them to put systems in place so that their crashes are only three days. This includes the high-powered execs who travel regularly for work. It does not matter how successful or high functioning they are - they have ADHD, and crashing is just part of the process of living with it.

I'm sharing this with all you ADHD friends out there, just in case you (like me) start shaming yourself if your crash lasts more than one day. It turns out three days is kind of the best case scenario. Be kind to yourselves!

Like even when you receive extensive medical care and follow all your doctors’ orders, even when you patiently explain and educate the people around you about the fact that certain health conditions do not improve and are in fact likely to worsen over time – some fucker will always mention an internet article she read about a random person who “woke up cured one day!!”

You can link people to all the peer-reviewed research you want about what your various diagnoses entail in real life, but there are always going to be people convinced that you’re only disabled - or as disabled - because you’re not trying hard enough.

Disabled people should be able to share information about our needs without getting fucking shamed for accepting that we are actually disabled.

I’m not “giving up” by accommodating my disabilities and being honest about their impact on my life any more than I’m “giving up” by wearing fucking glasses or sleeping in a bed instead of on the floor. 

Abled people, you need to get over your own discomfort with the existence of disabilities for which there is no “cure”, only symptom management and/or external accommodations. I understand that your immediate, visceral response is to want us to not be disabled, and that often that even comes from a kind place.

But you need to understand that a lot of the suffering that comes with being disabled isn’t even from the way our bodies exist – it’s from how you react to us. When you treat our symptoms or the way we accommodate our disabilities as failures or excuses, you make it harder for us to live our lives.

Stop trying to excise your discomfort and fear by trying to silence the disabled people around you about our experiences. Many disabled people will always be disabled. We need you to respect that that really is our experience and that it’s not your fucking job to pressure us into ignoring our own needs or to try various “cures”.

Me, parenting my tired toddler brain: Take a deep breath, it’s going to be ok. We don’t have to do everything today that’s overwhelming you. Let’s pick the most important thing to work on, ok? What’s the smallest step we can do to work towards that?

My toddler brain, wiping away tears: Um, I think we should…open up the important spreadsheet and look at the first row.

Me, parenting my tired toddler brain: Great! Let’s do that, and then we can have a popsicle, ok?

they:

-do not vet their therapists

-forcefully shut down negative commentary

-lie to therapists

-lie to consumers

-trap therapists in exploitative contracts

-sells users data
