The boyfriend last night was surprised I didn’t watch the debate.
“They’ve both been president. I was paying attention. I know what their presidencies will be like. Why listen to them talk about it?”
I bet he’d hate bears, if he were to switch fields.
As someone else said upthread (and I’ve told a lot of people myself) if you’re depressed but know you can focus and accomplish things, the first thing you accomplish might be suicide.
This is one of the few places where I agree with standard practice. Depression first, then ADHD.
This right here is why so many people with ADHD end up changing jobs so frequently.
I remember that, and I have to say that this attitude contributed to me not thinking there was any point in pursuing help for my MDD.
Don’t let the world being shit demoralize you into not trying to improve your lot, ladies, gentlemen and citizens.
I play this on my android phone. It’s free, ad-free, and you can pay to support.
The updates have been awesome. It’s extremely difficult, and it’s not unusual to die a buncha times before your first success.
Tell your kitty I love him.
Yeah. The lockpicking tools I use and want to use and can’t use is just nOrMaL bEhAvIoR u guiyzz!!
We have ADHD. One of the hallmarks is hyperfocus. We will, several times a year, sometimes a month, hyperfocus on a “hobby” and do it every moment we’re awake and not at work or school (to the neglect of eating or bathing or sleep) and then, at random, be unable to do it anymore to the point where we can’t, even if we want to.
This is an ADHD community. When you see us complaining about “normal” things, we simply aren’t putting in the thirty caveats that explain why this thing we’re complaining about isn’t “normal,” because we don’t have to explain ourselves to other people with our conditon.
And there is nothing more annoying than hanging out in a safe space for your condition and having people constantly show up to try to explain that this is “normal.” It’s not. We know it’s not. There’s books about it. Studies about it. We just shouldn’t have to explain the background details of what makes this abnormal every goddamn time!
I had to explain to my boyfriend that my cat absolutely has a “name” for him. My cat has specific meows for all his favorite humans.
And it doesn’t matter where it’s located.
You’ll just wind up in the queue regardless.
This is absolutely wild! I’m so glad I saw this today.
Cows make best friends. You probably saw a cow who just daw her beat friend die.
It’s their suddenness that freaks me out. I had been sitting on my couch for two hours the other night when one scuttled out from beneath my feet!
Truly the voice of several generations.
Dammit.
Back to contacts I guess.
This is wild to me as an English speaker.
Get checked for diabetes.
I’m so sympathetic to this ogre.
