getting a new therapist is so wild there's just so much lore to share

[adhdbean]

why does nobody talk about the adhd symptom where I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all… I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again - I would. Garak was right about one thing: a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant. So I will learn to live with it… Because I can live with it… I can live with it… Computer - erase that entire personal log.

ADHD brain be like:

adhd things:

having no concept of time

having to read using a ruler or something to block the rest of the words. what the heck

being irrationally angry for no reason

self care is boring, don’t wanna do it

eating? too boring. no thanks

those days when nothing is good

everything is too much no thanks

boredom so bad you clip through the floor and end up 3 years in the past and you don’t remember how to divide

homework is. Bad

Executive Dysfunction Tip: Stop in the Middle!

So you just finished a chapter of your work in progress. Congrats! Seems like a good place to stop, right? 

But wait! Before you go take that much-needed break, do this: Write three sentences of the next chapter. That’s it. Three sentences. Now you’re done.

It will be much, much easier for you to come back to it when you feel like you’re already in the middle. You just got rid of the most difficult part of doing anything: Starting.

This also works for:

crafts! go sew a few stitches of that next seam before taking a break.

art! go shade in a bit of that next section before you stop.

homework! go do five minutes of that next subject first.

pretty much everything!

Happy productivity!

overstimulation/sensory overload really is like sorry I can’t hear you over the sound of my shirt tag being itchy and these two strands of hair touching my face and the tv and one of my shoelaces being undone and air touching me and the plane flying overhead and my own thoughts about remembering to buy hummus

Team “I can hear the near silent hum of electrical appliances and the bubbles fizzing in the can of soda on the coffee table, but can’t watch tv without subtitles and processes conversation at ¼ speed”

Now is the time of the semester when all ur neurotypical friends start talking abt popping Adder*ll to finish their final assignments when they’re tired and either say it helped them get it all done in an hour (adder*ll doesn’t make u half-ass things) or they’ll say “but then I hyperfocused on the wrong things :( poor me :(” shut up Grace!! If ur SO tired maybe you should rethink going to four parties the week of finals and get some gd sleep instead
