#taking all my adhd things and stuffing them into a little fictional character. cheaper than therapy

[yeeiguess]

Hi I’m writing an ADHD Zuko fic so here are my notes for adhd stuff Zuko does. I’ll try to include most of that in the fic

- volume control is hard !!! he yells a lot

- Trouble understanding verbal explanations + super stubborn when it doesn’t fit his logic, follows rules to the letter

- sensitivity (too warm n stuff because of fire bending, noise because metal ship, clothes and armour being constricting)

- Zoning out in important convos

- Fidgeting : rubbing armour, swinging his head so the ponytail follows, tap his foot, bite the inside of his lips, finger rubs, rocking a tiny bit when there’s no one around, rubbing his scar

- Forgetful = notebook

- Hyperfocus on theater + avatar stuff

- Hyperactive thoughts

- RSD

- Talks before thinking

- But masking that shit +++ because you know ! Does the fire Lord look like someone who vibes with nd people
