#I am just. tired

[scatterbrainedart]

The biggest struggle with ADHD for me is how much time everything takes. A good example of that is schoolwork and writing. I'm a writer, a write a lot. I like it, I'm good at it. Yet, my 500 words long text took me a full weekend to write which included me staying up late pretty much every day to write. I've also been writing the same book for four years now (albeit I did start over after 50000 or so words).

Last book I read was Frankenstein. Loved it, but it took me over a year to finish. Today, my only goal was to finish writing my notes for this one assigment. I wrote four sentences in about 6 hours (after another 4 hours of procastinating). Drawing also takes me a very long time compared to others. And is very much not supported by my short attention span and lackluster motivation.

The fact that it hasn't always been this bad is the worst part, I think. I like school and studying, I like learning things, but things are always too slow or too fast for me. I'm glad I'm a fast learner and can compensate for my attention span and godawful working memory with those streghts I have. But it is not efficiant and it will not work forever, and I'm like 99% certain it's the reason I get so quickly overworked and burnt out.

The second worst part is when people overlook this and think I should be able to handle it just because I'm "old enough to take responsibility" of these sort of things now. Which, yeah, I guess. But I'm also a full-time student who is doing her darndest to balance school, friends, student associations, hobbies and every other responsibility, obligation and commitment that may be thrown her way. Which, realistically, I would be able to handle on their own. Seperatly. Aaaghh. Anyway.

It shouldn't be unreasonable to ask for a bit more time to manage it all. Dropping the ball doesn't mean I'm not trying hard enough. If I could choose between it being easy and it being hard, wouldn't I choose for it to be easy?? Like,, cmon

My identity has always been wrapped up in writing. And I've been doing it a lot less and now I don't know who exactly I'm supposed to be

I just want to remind people that it’s 2024 and we didn’t “go thru a pandemic” we are “going thru a pandemic” present tense. It is still happening. People are still get sick, still becoming disabled, and still dying. Covid hasn’t gone away and I beg people to not normalize getting sick with it.

just the fact that i’m gonna go to work for 7 hours while it’s raining outside makes me wants to die

some of the people i follow on my twitter (thankfully not mutuals) make me ashamed of being a bisexual nonbinary person who's partially a woman in addition to being partially a man and also both and also neither blah blah because i constantly fear my attraction to men is "straight aligned" when i desire fat men of any presentation which primarily gay men tend to desire

[notgreengardens]

I kinda hate how the main take away in general seems to be "hahaha I love being a hater, kendrick is the king of being a hater hahaha" or "drake has a secret daughter" and not "there are misogynist sex pests and pedophiles in the hip hop industry and kendrick used his clout to very publically call out one" like can we please not drop the pedophilia out of this conversation YET AGAIN like the jokes are funny and I also make some but I feel like this should be front and center of the conversation and men in positions of power always get away with this shit

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side
