#and YOU that said I was lazy and a slob for having difficulty keeping things organized

someone pointed out something I did the other day that I didn’t really notice I do and then I was like….. yeah why do I do that and turns out it’s stimming. And apparently I do it. A lot.
#discovering behaviors that you’ve been doing your whole life that people found weird and annoying is stimming is fun!
#… haha. ha.
#person at work last night: is your shoulder feeling ok? I saw you kind of holding it
#me who is constantly putting my left hand on my right shoulder: uhhhhhh…. no. I don’t know why I do that
#me googling it about 30 mins laters: 🧍♀️
#I mean on the one hand it’s nice that they’re adhd behaviors rather than like…. moral deficiencies I guess
#but now I can’t unsee it
#it’s an innocuous behavior that is going to make me super self conscious now
#I’ve seen… very few (I can think of 2 on the top of my head) docs that I know or work with
#that I’ve seen do stuff like this. but they’re both men and they’re both clearly hyperactive adhd
#maybe other people are medicated or just better at masking
#it’s nice to have a nice to a lot of the struggles of my entire life honestly
#but it’s not like it makes it not a struggle or makes people mroe sympathetic
#like my husband has the classic hyperactive adhd
#and my forgetfulness and messiness drives him absolutely crazy
#but his hyperactivity and emotional volatility drives ME crazy
#and telling my mother about the diagnosis and what it means and she’s like
#’oh I totally have that too!’ yeah maybe you do
#but see it was YOU that told me I was a bad person for forgetting things
#and YOU that said I was lazy and a slob for having difficulty keeping things organized
#and YOU that would smack my hands when I’d pick at my nails and tell me it’s a disgusting hav
#and YOU that STILL tells people that your physician daughter ‘gives up on everything!’
#…….. do I have some bitterness to work out maybe
#🤔
#what was this about?
#oh yeah anyway. I hope people don’t notice I do this shit
#and if they do they don’t know what it means
#….uh.
#personal?
