#ADHD things

[stuffymcstuffsworld]

That or get a call from your mother that she's suddenly coming over last minute and you've got maybe 30mins to hide everything before she arrives.

Why is it the fear of God?

Mothers are way more scary.

I feel like what makes being a secret superhero with a civilian identity so difficult is the fact that this superhero with implausible abilities is trying to pose as a normal human being.

If you’re going to pretend to be a civilian, why go for normal when you can pretend to be just mentally unstable enough to justifiably disappear but not enough to be sent to a mental asylum?

*At the mall and a villain shows up*

Secret super hero: I have to go. Don’t follow me.

Bestie who thinks they’re having a panic attack: Do what you gotta do.

*At the secret superhero hero’s house*

Secret speedster, pacing at the speed of light and fidgeting like crazy: uh, sorry. ADHD is acting up.

Naive bestie: I got you.

My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit

Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before

living with ADHD is being stuck in a Matrix of your own making, and forgetting you made it

"adhd isn't a disability"

breaks down over trying to start tasks until he deadline is stupidly close

unable to do basic chores unless it's like 4am and then the whole damn house gets cleaned

speaks too fast

tangent and tangent and tangent. makes social situations hard

literally unable to stop themselves from interrupting people mid sentence (and the constant "*interrupts*- sorry, please continue")

knows what they want to say, cannot find the words, even if it's something basic

auditory processing disorder (pretty common with adhd), like how do you explain that you can hear but your brain has minecraft server lag and the chat will appear soon

hyperfixations, and people thinking they are special interests when they are not (they are short term, literally stops you from basic care like eating and drinking when in) edit: it was brought to my attention this comes across like special interests are easier to live with which is not the case, please do not take that away from this post!!!

impulse purchases making bank accounts cry

all or nothing. not hungry to pain. don't need to pee until pain. you get the picture

cannot sit still, like actually can't, constant moving and shuffling which people think would be cute but actually just pisses people off

doesn't have a fidget toy, not bc they are popular but bc they would have to put it away bc dylan over there got a fidget spinner and has been loudly playing with it (dylan is neurotypical)

cannot do anything if there is something else to do that day, must wait

just stfu it is a disability

The adhd urge to use parenthesis in every sentence (because every thought comes with additional bonus content)

[neurodivergent-brain]

It shocks me how many people don’t realise that the autism spectrum isn’t this:

That is in fact a very outdated and in many ways insulting…

THIS IS WHAT THE SPECTRUM IS:

And it is actually incorrect to say “well everyone is somewhere on the spectrum”

Someone may show traits that are associated with autism but that doesn’t mean they are on the spectrum but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they are autistic,

Just like someone who is autistic may show traits of people who are neurotypical.

When I am speaking to friends who may use incorrect language or may have outdated information of what the spectrum is, I explain to them why it is important to change how we view and talk about being neurotypical. None of them are intentionally being offensive and are often happy to get a better understanding. It’s always important to be open to changing how we view something so that everyone is able to feel accepted and understood; therefore if there is any information or something I’ve said that is offensive, incorrect or even if you have a different perspective than me, please let me know as I only want to be respectful of others and am always willing to see other people reasons for their views.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!

No no no no no, you don't understand. I can't keep going on like this. It's draining me and I can't take it anymore. No more, please.
