Im so fucking tired of adhd ruining things in my life. Im so tired of executive dysfunction and not getting things done. Im so fucking tired of time blindness and always being late to everything and always being a burden. And im tired of constantly blaming myself when i know i don't have the resources to make things better. I cant even afford an assesment.

And most of all, im so fucking tired that at the end of the day, bo matter how much i research abt myself, when i fuck up because of my disorder, all i can do is look at the floor and stfu because nobody would fucking take "sorry my brain lacks the complete fucking concept of time. Also the ability to Do." for an answer.

How the fuck am i supposed to fix all of this bullshit that comes with adhd?? I'm tired i'm tired i'm tired and i don't want to keep fucking thinking that i'm doomed to be a failure my entire life in these things.

I've been debating if I'm going to call out sick to choir because it's an awful pain day and I just want to go to bed. And I was leaning towards 'I can suck it up' - except I've been sitting in my car outside my apartment for 23 minutes because the idea of walking up the stairs sounds nightmarish. Which is probably a sign that today would be an understandable day to skip.....

I’m so proud of people living with chronic health conditions. That shit is HARD. Idk who needs to hear this, but if no one else has said it: I’m proud of you. You’re sticking it out through so much pain and grief. That’s no small feat.

Every small thing you do for yourself health adds up. The grief is heavy and it comes from a place of love. The grief knows the pain is wronging you.

I’m proud of you. I hope on the good days you can be proud of yourself.

Keep going.

common myths about migraines (AKA if you get headaches regularly, please seek treatment for migraines)

"i don't have migraines because while i get them several times a week, it's only when i am hungry or dehydrated."

those are probably migraines. thirst, hunger, sleep disturbances, or any disruption to routine are common migraine triggers.

"my headaches are specifically barometric related, i get them when the weather/altitude changes."

those are probably migraines. barometric pressure is a common migraine trigger.

"i get headaches all the time but ibuprofen gets rid of them so they can't be migraines."

that's not true. ibuprofen works great at relieving migraine pain for many people.

"my consistent headaches are tension headaches. i feel them originate in my neck/shoulders."

those are probably migraines. muscle tension is a common migraine trigger.

if you are regularly getting headaches (once a week or more), you are likely getting migraines. in fact, a good rule of thumb if you're consistently getting headaches is to treat them as migraines until you can rule out migraines. that's how common "chronic headache = migraine" actually is.

migraines are a neurological disorder wherein pain is one symptom. pain is often the MAIN symptom, and the most noticeable symptom, which can make diagnosis tricky. other symptoms of migraine include:

fatigue

nausea/vomiting

digestive issues

visual disturbances (auras)

sensitivity to light and/or sound

mood changes

brain fog/cognitive changes

ringing in the ears

dizziness/vertigo

numbness/weakness on one side of the body

this list is NOT complete, but is a starting point. i really like the comparison to a hangover. if you generally feel hungover when you get a headache (without having consumed alcohol), that's a classic migraine presentation.

so many people suffer from migraine and don't even know it, so they aren't able to advocate for themselves to get treatment. there are great new migraine treatments on the market! if you're able, please seek treatment for your migraines. a better quality of life is possible.
