oh you’re neurodivergent? reblog with the song stuck in your head and the task you’re currently procrastinating on
Just finished a conversation with a scammer who actually knows when to stop trying. I’ve seen a lot of things on the internet but this is a first. I’m impressed
So at this point everyone in my family knows that I’m (probably) autistic, AND YET when I asked my sister to stop tapping her nails on my desk she just laughed and continued to do it. Now that she’s left the room I’m shaking and I feel like I’m gonna throw up because of that one little thing. Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE my family? They’re So Nice. Please kill me, I hate it here.
That awkward moment when a 4 year old is more respectful than a 40 year old
Nothing like having a panic attack because your sister won’t stop yelling at her kids and your the only other adult (barely) in the house 👍👌✌️
On another note, my head hurts and I don’t know if it’s from crying silently in my room or from the weird way I was curled up in bed before I sat up to make this post, so that’s nice I guess
ok not to be adhd on main but if you even JOKINGLY make fun of me for my interests thats it. i wont ever be able to trust you again because im positive youre constantly judging me and making fun of me behind my back. thats just the way it is!!
to all the people vaguing people in the tags: get better friends
it ABSOLUTELY is, adhd and autistic experiences overlap so so much and i have both so this post is solidarity
If I may add, as an ADHD person if you insult (even jokingly) something I enjoy, I will no longer enjoy that thing as much. Every time I watch that show you called cringe I remember that you did that. You said the writing was unfunny, so now I don’t laugh at the jokes as much, even alone, and I feel like I shouldn’t enjoy it anymore if it’s bad. (And then I also believe you think I’m unfunny and my sense of humor is just bad) So I have to rationalize “Ok I know this part is awkward but I like it a little sometimes” in my head to justify my enjoyment, and that just makes the whole experience less fun. I’ll never express strong interest in something around you again.
Sharing hyperfixations is a VULNERABLE act of trust, and if it goes badly, we just go right back to being ashamed of being happy.
Why are mental illnesses like:
Buy one get seven free! But wait, if you call now you can get the first one free too! Oh you don’t want mental illness? That’s fine! Here you go anyway! Now you have eleven mental illnesses! But wait, there’s more! If you don’t get healthy coping mechanisms right away, you’ll get three more mental illnesses absolutely free!
Like one of those ads on TV at 3am that just never ends and by the time it’s finally over suddenly you’re convinced that if you don’t buy the product you will die. Like what the fuck I didn’t ask for this
When you paint your nails one day because you feel like it but the next day you have to peel it all off because now it feels icky for no reason
