so much respect for the adhd people who don't take medication because they feel like it makes them not feel like them or dulls their sparkle or w/e but i can't relate at AAAALLLL. i can't do anything without my meds, i struggle so much with motivation and for me the best thing the meds do is just getting me started doing what i need to do. they streamline my thoughts it's like my brain is the ocean in finding nemo and there's clownfish and jellyfish and dory and schools of salmon and sharks and boats and they're all talking over each other all at the same time and not getting anywhere and then the meds are the east australian current that puts them on a simple path to where they need to go. it's so good.

#again no disrespect to people who hate them i just. almost feel like im weird for being helped by them?#people are so anti medication and their experiences are so incredibly different to mine idk #maybe it's the meds themselves bc i think the ones i take are relatively weak in comparison to others and it's a smaller dose. idk.#people are so weird about neurodiversity in general like yeah be proud accept and love yourself but what if we. hm. what if we acknowledge #that these are disorders and disabilities. can we say that? can i say that my disability disables me or is that ableist?#can i say that medication and surgery and doctors and god forbid psychiatrists and psychologists can be helpful?#i know so many people have had terrible experiences and that's awful but sometimes. medicine can help people. let's not discourage people #from seeking help and accommodations idk.
