First day of taking my ADHD meds twice a day instead of once (by splitting the dose in two) - surprise surprise, I am actually capable of doing things (and focusing on them) past four in the afternoon! Now let's see if I will still be able to fall asleep when I need to.
#i swear to god every time i think of myself as a lazy piece of shit#for not being able to do something#it turns out to be executive dysfunction#every. single. time#and somehow i am still not capable of accepting that and being compassionate to myself......#random#personal

What people think ADHD is:
So I went to my room to grab sticky notes to leave my roommate a reminder on the dryer but then I saw my week old mug on my nightstand so I went to put it away and then when I was in the kitchen I realized there's no room for it in the cabinet and now I'm measuring the wall for shelving units.
Which, yeah, it is that. It's definitely that. But it's also this series of texts I sent to my friend this morning:
#adhd#executive dysfunction#i ran out of my meds before my next psych appointment and it turns out they were working better than i thought they were#so i took an old one i never got rid of that i stopped taking because of the side effects. i was so desperate#i wanted to run and move at lightspeed but i cant and it was infuriating#i was stimming on the drive to work with the cheesestick that i forgotten I'd put in my pocket ten minutes earlier#the other meds are working now and i feel a lot better but i forgot to take them with food and now I'm nauseous#and they really named it can't Sit Still And Gets Distracted Disorder#oy#don't mind me#skywalker42 rambles#i might still be in bed if the cat hadn't gently chewed on my hand#i also sucked in a hard candy while getting ready to add some other sensory info and i think it helped so there's a hot tip#i want to sleep for a week and also start training for the circus

Was not expecting to cry over Dang Litefoot absolutely thriving in his James Bond persona because people around him for once actually trust him and don't automatically treat him like a shithead
#was expecting to cry over usha and liv and maybe russell#turns out i relate most to the slightly mentally unstable stoner with dyed hair and executive dysfunction who coulda fuckin guessed#nsbu

by far the most vexing part of regular exercise is the need to shower regularly. my standard of personal hygiene is such that i shower when it becomes too uncomfortable to sleep, which i'm sure everyone thinks is gross but like. i do what i gotta do. during my worst autoimmune flares i could go like ten days between showers bc i couldn't stop sleeping & absolutely could not spend energy on Cleaning My Body. nowadays if i exclusively lay in bed, i can go 2-3 days between showers (when it isn't hot) before i feel Yucky. but if i exercise?? fuck me. ya bitch has to get in the wet box every goddamn day. i go out and shamble my crippled ass over a few miles, wandering wherever my ADHD whims take me, and then i have to save enough energy for showering because there's this WHOLE OTHER TASK that i have to do now before i can sleep. otherwise i will be uncomfortably aware of The Sludge and The Slime and The Skin and lay awake for hours. i am TIRED of washing my hair and scrubbing off grime. Let Me Exercise Without Getting Gross!!!
#this could be solved if i swam instead of walking but currently#my swim habits are impeded by executive dysfunction and spotty car access#with walking i can just put on my shoes and leave. dangerous kid impulses turned adult self-care#now i'm sure in a month i'll be back to sedentary flopping because i lack the attention span for long-term habits#but i'm letting the walking bug bite me for as long as it's willing.#just got out of the wet box. which i surrendered to after 3 hours of trying to sleep.#autoimmune tag

Why yes I would love to help out with this awesome project, as long as I am not a crucial component on whom everyone else relies and if I slip up everyone else will be massively impacted. Also I require external pressure and deadlines to function. Oh no.

When me being horney for a sec for orc smut and orc boyfriends leads me to a the coolest art and artist i have ever seen and then that leads me to a lovely story that i binge read the whole thing and got super attached to the characters in less than 15 mins .... Legendary stuff ur doing here honestly!❤️❤️ Also you captured anxiety so well i have never seen anything so accurate to it in my life but i relate to abby so hard even thou im nearing my 30's (which in turn also makes relate to olli too) but listen if anything happened to abby im Gonna kill everyone in this room then myself itsg i will be a puddle on the floor 😭 (/j ofc)
GOOHH THANK YOUUUU!!!!
glad u resonate with the whole anxiety part its comforting tbh lmfao it means im doin somethin right and dont worry Abby may have yet to go through Horrible experiences (well *more horrible) BUT HE DOESNT DIE just gets character development HA
#i just reached down into my overall repressed freshman experience memories and tried to vomit it in comic form best i could#and i still felt like it turned out corny pffft sO ITS GOOD TO HEAR#this is late as hell but im beating back the executive dysfunction demon with a glock rn bear with me lmfao

Shiny buttered gold. Secret Santa giftieeeeee. I had to speed run the digital part of this one a little bit, and it still ended up taking me an hour for that.
#equine art#horse art#secret santa art#kifuart#quarter horse#he's a palomino dun brindle??? with like splash and tobiano AND overo (I don't see the overo but not my horse)#anyway he was fun#even though he's supposed to be a yearling whoops#proportions on his hind end and I got into arguments#I'm almost surprised it turned out as well as it did considering#i also had like way too much to do this week and executive dysfunction hit me HARD#though i did read quite a lot while doing nothing i guess#but once i did get my markers out he chugged along quite swimmingly#really enjoyed myself once it came down to it#i love the dramatic lighting of the reference picture though#and we all know how much i love shineh horses

ATTEMPTING TO GET BACK IN THE PATTERN OF WRITING POETRY.
ENJOY...
[ REGARDS, HABIT ]
HUNGER // SIN
THERE IS NOTHING LESS THAN NEED,
OF FLESH UPON THE TEETH.
I WATCHED HER BLEED,
TORE HER THROUGH, AND SAW BONE UNDERNEATH.
ISN'T SHE BEAUTIFUL?
WASN'T SHE GRAND?
HE CALLED IT UNSUITABLE,
HE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND.
IT MADE HIM SICK.
BUT IN TRUTH,
IT MADE ME TICK;
HOW BLOOD RAN DOWN, LIKE SMOOTH VERMOUTH
AS HE THINKS OF HER,
HUNGER RISES AGAIN.
AND THERE LIES NO WAY TO DETER,
FROM THE TRUE FOLLIES OF MEN.
LEFT DRUNK ON THE HIGH,
WITH THE FADED MEMORY OF TASTE.
AS IT LEAVES WITH A DESPERATE CRY,
I AM YET DRAWN TO YOUR DISGRACE.
INVITE ME IN,
PRAY I AM NOT STARVED.
MY TONGUE IS SWEET AS BITTER SIN,
AND ALL OF HUMANITY HAS MY REGARDS.
#HABIT speaks 🐇 ☠️#habit emh ask blog#habit rp blog#not asks#HABIT's poetry#( ooc > )#cw caps#trying to do poetry... so... um... yeah#cw cannibalism#cw gore mention#cw implied death#cw blood#cw alcohol mention#god... i haven't written poetry in forever.#this was nice though.#cathartic. i guess.#it turned out good#mostly... i guess.#i apologize if i missed any CW tags.#freestyle poem#poetry#poems on tumblr#this is about Stephanie... by the way. in case you can't tell.#HABIT kin#emh kin#but jesus fuck it's been way too long since I've tried anything like poetry.#ugh im so rusty...#>:[ but fuck you i had motivation and was actually able to words.#hahahahaha!!! take that executive dysfunction!!!

if i could just push a button to magically be clean that would be nice
#nadia rambles#something something girl help my executives are dysfunctioning#oh well it turns out i can't take a shower today anyway because the tub has just been recaulked which I didn't consider#anyway i got that adhd fatigue and/or possibly pms lowered efficacy of my extremely low dose stimulants#i would say i wish i could take more but tbh i felt way better when i went back down#then again the fact that the reason i went down was my heartrate might be why i felt better#so i guess if i could take more without a baseline of 100 bpm i probably would not feel so bad on...#*checks notes* the average starting dose for most people#👍i'm normal

I forgot to hit "confirm" when I made my grocery pickup order and now it's not going to be ready for another 4 hours and y'all know I am FIGHTING the urge to just scroll through Tumblr for that whole time because picking up groceries was item #3 on my list of things to do for the day and skipping items is ILLEGAL.
#facebook thinks I have ADHD#and sometimes I wonder#like i cycle through hobbies#and struggle with what sounds to me like executive dysfunction#and I used to LIVE in my head when I worked retail#but also#i can get by?#so maybe I'm just lazy?#and lack discipline?#i'm terrible with follow-through#and habits don't stick#i killed my fish because their tank light went out and I kept forgetting to change it#like i had a routine down#wake up get dressed turn on the tank light & feed fish#with the kight out i kept forgetting to feed them#i would walk by and see the light off and think to myself#i gotta buy a new bulb#five minutes later the thought was gone#i don't remember things unless i write them down#i tried sticky notes but they just become a colorful part of the wall#anyway that's enough of my bitching#let's see if I'm productive!
