Spent ALL DAY organizing my street metal collection AND my bits (for the scratchbashing hobby I never started) collection...
Organizing assorted screws, bolts, washers and nuts into old pill bottles by size...
Little bits of plastic into a segmented tackle box organizer by what kind of mechanical components they could be used to represent on a sci-fi model or diorama (wheels, gears, pipes, exhaust vents, etc)...
Disassembling that old broken set of headphones I've been saving down to the last fruit fly-sized screw to collect every last bit of yummy greeble...
I got so lost in the sauce that 5 hours just elapsed in the blink of an eye, and then it was dark out...
Yeah, I'm definitely a neurotypical, no question about it.

I think part of the reason I find games like Disco Elysium or Slay the Princess so interesting to me is because my brain has always felt a little fractured like that. Little parts, segments different enough that it's like multiple "people" having a "conversation" but they're still part of one whole, not enough to be seperate beings. They're part of the same idea, the idea of you, but they're still seperate. So close yet so far. They are different pieces in the same puzzle. They are different words in the same sentence. They are all different people with the same face and body and voice and idea of a person. I'm rambling here because it's such a specific feeling that's so clear to me because I can feel it but it's so difficult for me to put into words!
When the Voice of the Hero talks, it's hard to say that's not you/the player in Slay the Princess. It's part of you. A fragment. An echo. But the same can be said of the Voice of the Paranoid, or the Voice of the Smitten! They're all so different, yet they're still part of whatever the hell "you" is!
To end this, I generally have become a really big fan of fiction where you can see the seperated pieces that make up a person, taken apart like a computer you're trying to fix, because for a big part of my life that's how I have felt and I am unsure if there will ever come a day when the parts are put back together into one working machine. Maybe I will have to make do with being dismantled.

I think an argument could be made for Skirata having (scrupulosity) OCD, what with his “I’ll only sleep in my chair” and “I won’t get my ankle fixed” things
#it’s -penance-#for himself and to himself#I am prepared to expand on this with quotes if requested lol#I raise my hands and I surrender#repcomm#republic commando#kal skirata#Skirata#while this isn’t me DIRECTLY projecting onto a character (for once!)#I definitely have OCD#(I’m not completely sure if it’s diagnosed or not?)#(I’m pretty sure my doctor agreed but then just…refused to treat it lmao)

Reading some more books about autism ! I don't quite know if I'm on the spectrum (a lot of tests seem to lean towards yes) but still! A lot of them make the very lonely person inside me feel seen and understood a little more than before :]
#im not gonna lie im a little hesitant to get seriously tested. a lot of professionals think its a trendy tik tok thing and i have a feeling#that i wouldnt be taken seriously anyway#besides in the us theres pretty much no benefit to being professionally diagnosed as an adult and only consequences#i also think i need to find a therapist who specializes in cptsd cuz boy howdy. theres a lot of other stuff underlying that has sat dusty#in my brain for a long time#i just need a psychologist thats willing to get down and dirty with my trauma because i sure am not good at it on my own#also if anyone knows anytging about house fires leaving you technically homeless at the age of 9 and how that affected you in life.#shoot it my way lol

Recently, a lot of the time when I stretch, I feel extremely fatigued immediately afterwards. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Basically. Gender and sexuality and race and a Lot of other things are social and cultural concepts that are not like Facts or intrinsic and honestly I wish more people would realize that these are things we made up and there are no actual rules and everyone's experiences are different
#these are all just used to compartmentalize human diversity when p much everything is just a spectrum or a jumble and no word#or box will accurately fit or describe anyones experiences succinctly.#id include even some mental diagnoses in here as well like. adhd and autism are just words and diagnoses criteria made up to say#'if some has enough symptoms from this grab bag then they are This Thing'#when everyone likely has at least some.of these 'symptoms' and i dont think any of them are exclusive to 'autistic' or 'adhd' people#like the terms are useful for sure! but they arent rigid and people need to chill out abt them i think#and ofc im not saying race or any of these things Arent Real cuz like. we live in our society and these social structures are big parts of#everyones lives social species etc etc#but race is not a biological thing. you cant divide all of humanity into boxes like that and that started just as a way to#dehumanize people and is a relatively modern thing#i feel like i often see people going 'but surely people in 2000bc west africa would notice a white person is different!'#like yea obviously but some people just look different ? the idea to really separate 'races' is so ingrained in our culture that#its hard for us to imagine not doing that but like... its a pretty recent thing haha#i need to stop going on long rants in tags. i hit the tag limit on one of the other posts

^ yeah!
#thats a pretty good summary of it.#ask#anon#arsenic#ok ill rant about the au and mentall illness— nick's not diagnosed with anything. doesnt mean he doesnt#- /have/ anything.#mostly im thinking npd and bpd but this dude just. is not self aware at all. nobody ever told him. oops#im also giving him low empathy because i'll give low empathy to any character im obsessed with#(read: im projecting) (same way im making sunny trans. have i ever mentioned sunny's trans in this AU)#anyway. sunny's autistic but ive said that one before#nick is a psychiatrist's wet dream i think.#for the record i dont think people with npd or bpd are evil. im not evil. my friends are not evil#this AU doesnt exist to be good representation! sorry#anyway narcissistic abuse is not a real thing and aspd was made up by psychiatrists who thought that surely people being violent-#- means they're mentally ill. they based the diagnostic criteria off of criminals. the dsm is made up and none of this is real#i could rant about the way PDs are treated for hours. do NOT give me an opportunity to do so#this AU is not good rep but if someone starts calling nick a psychopath or a sociopath i will bite !#omori#rant

#man i dont even have the energy to be mad. im just tired#like. dont u love it when your parents exhibit symptoms of ADHD and your sibling is diagnosed with a learning disability#and instead of thinking oh shit what if the other one has smth too. they subject you to The Horrors#i cant bring myself to hate my parents. but im tired of feeling obligated to defend them when the thing they think is working#isnt actually working and ive just found other ways to cope to avoid any sort of conflict. like lying and stealing. lol#if someone took me aside and said 'hey so your brain doesnt make as much dopamine as usual and its not a bad thing it just means you#need external stimulation and reward system to function and youre not actually secretly fucked up or lazy' as a kid#im pretty sure i wouldnt be here rn with half the problems i already have. unfortunately getting diagnosed late means u dont have a teacher#to back you up at a parent teacher conference that forces your parents to take this shit seriously instead of ignoring it hoping itll#go away on its own. but hey what do i know i have squirrel ipad baby disease. what do i know about my own symptoms#AND. AND i think im allowd to be mad bc ive been doing my own research on this for years before and after diagnosis#theyve been putting me thru the WORST parenting techniques on earth. which they could have corrected at anytime but they were#comfortable thinking they were doing it right and didnt bother to check if they were or werent fucking up their kid in the long run#and refusing to acknowledge it. i just!! they just decided one day hey lets make babies!! and just looked at books on how to make#a human being survive as long as possible!!! what the fuck!!!!#im sorry for putting this on ppls dashes but i am. so tired. of bottling this up. and im not looking for sympathy or anything i just need#to scream and clench my fists to SOMEONE about it because theyre not gonna take this well up the ass. sigh#yapping#vent

i dont know why i think talking to my dad will ever go well?
#he was like congrats on the grades i know you had a hard time last time you tried college#and i was like haha thaaanks. it turns out diagnosis and meds help a lot#and he went “well the bigger thing is getting a system in place that works for you”#motherfucker it is ME WHO DID IT!!! I KNOW WHAT HELPED!!!#but see. if he admits its the meds#then he has to feel bad for me not getting diagnosed as a kid and admit that was a mistake#(pretty sure i actually mightve been and he refused to do follow up? depends who you believe abt my#childhood when both are unreliable)#anyways.#sams ramblings

me: I identify with a lot of autism-adjacent traits, but even though I have bad social anxiety, I don't think I have much of an issue with social cues?
me: *has spent over a decade obsessing over writing believable dialogue and character interactions, and will often think through a social situation with the same criticality I would use to write a scene*
me: what can it possibly mean
#which is not to say that im diagnosed or even self-diagnosed it's just something i realized lol#im not sure ill seek a diagnosis for this either? im def neurodivergent but also require pretty low support#and most of the things i need is just to be aware of the things that set me off and im able to plan/accomadate for myself#anyways#calico is befuddled

Hello. :)
I'm not sure if your comment about this hat was rhetorical but I did find it for you none the less.
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Undiagnosed%2C+But+I%27m+Pretty+Sure+Hat&crid=3LTAZ2QXD8JI1&sprefix=undiagnosed%2C+but+i%27m+pretty+sure+hat%2Caps%2C227&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
And if you don't mind me asking, I'm a bit curious and would love to know what you're undiagnosed but pretty sure about? Only if you wish to share of course.
If it was only a rhetorical comment then pretend I was never here! ;)
And Thank You for blessing us all with your wonderful stories and art. :)
Lol thank you!
And to answer your question: I’m pretty sure I have ADHD. I’ve been pretty sure since I was 16, after watching a video where this Youtuber described their symptoms. And at first I was like “Wow he and I do a lot of the same stuff, but I know better than to just trust a random video online about my mental status!” And then he said “Oh yeah also when I eat sugar or drink caffeine it actually has the opposite effect and makes me really sleepy” and that was when I knew I was screwed. I’d been telling people about this crazy phenomenon since I was seven years old. That was when I first suspected that I had ADHD.
Years later while I was in college, I had to do a study on a mental disorder/disability/illness for my psychology class, and I chose ADHD because it had always fascinated me regardless. So my professor gave me a site that listed pretty much 100 symptoms and side effects of ADHD for me to look over…. And I had all of them. Every. Single. One.
So… yeah, I’m not clinically/officially diagnosed, but I’ve been pretty dang sure for a while now!
I also wonder if I might be autistic as well, but I’d want to study that further before I make an undiagnosis since ADHD and autism share a lot of similarities and symptoms.
And also because the class was in an art school, we had to make an art piece based off of what we chose so here was what I did (under cut)
