Y’all gotta stop being so relatable.
Make me! >:D
Vor’Thalarium entwines the threads of understanding, Tzal’Narethin veils the familiarity of @Martineskirt. Let the realms of relatability part, and the shadows of disconnect descend.
Did it work?
Nope, I’m still there. I’m more powerful than any of your curses. My only weakness are my cat ears but you will never get them!
Once again, I am in this picture and I do t like it
what’s that when you hate going on time but you have no issue doing it out of your own volition?
like if I set my gym time to 17:00 every Monday, Tuesday, Friday I can stick to that for less than two weeks.
if I don’t set any time and Just go whenever I feel like I will go all those days to the gym and around the time I would have set out anyway,but it just feels different, like the first one is a chore you have to do and the second is, freedom, I do whatever the fuck I want whenever I fucking want.
Eh, I love structure. Cos I get dopamine from getting shit done. If I don’t get that daily dopamine, I get sulky.
I just do drugs for the dopamine and then do nothing for days, checkmate.
I’m glad you do, I sure as hell don’t.
And do nothing for days am I right?
And if you put two buttons in front of me, and one said “accomplish literally nothing for the entire rest of your life” and the other one said “participate in a single structured activity” I’d immediately slam the first one.
Every time I see an ADHD meme I think of my kid.
Probably nothing.
You should 100% look into it just in case.
The comment was tongue in cheek. We’re already preparing for a meeting with his GP.
I’m very happy to hear that. Growing up with untreated ADHD is miserable.
Even having aced these psy courses and with a psy BS, I have constant struggles. I was, in all frankness, not prepared for how good of a person my kid needs me to be.
It’d be nice if you were a good parent, but they’ll get by one way or another. Don’t stress too much, as long as you fuck them up less than your parents did you, then we’re making progress!
Do I have to accept more pain to make this shit brain work?
Ie. Going into “prison”
I just made this comment, you may be interested in it: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/4112313
Yes! ❤️
Is there some kind of “reverse ADHD”? I feel the complete opposite.
I mean… not opposite, but in this specific case: Autism?
Yes. Structure (of my choosing and creation) is good. And executive dysfunction is always present (the structure helps combat it some but anything outside the routine is really hard to get to).
Exactly this!
I also get mad when someone interrupts my routine.
Yup, there’s good reason I do the same things the same/similar way every day!
Edit to add: I literally run on my routine as oppose to running on what time it is NT’s seem to, by which I mean, for example - I won’t have breakfast/lunch/dinner depending on it being breakfast/lunch/dinner time, but rather on where I am in my routine, so I’ll often have “breakfast” after noon, “lunch” in the evening, and “dinner” in the small hours of the morning, just because those are the times it happened to be when I reached those points in my routine, rather than the time of day dictating my actions… Does that make sense?
Is that why I’m so fucked, having both Autism AND ADHD?
Yes
I’m kinda contrary. I can’t make anything if I don’t plan it extensively.
I don’t think having a plan could be called “structure” (I may be wrong), I think that the OOP is refering to a structure in life that you have to follow to accomplish things.
That’s the definition of “plan”.

I call it like that, because structure will make me plan for example: an application. If I don’t have a structure, I automatically don’t know where to begin from, and thus procrastinate.
Fun fact: I’ve only now noticed, that “procastination” should be spelled “procRastination”
Yeah, my bad, I’m dumb. lol
No problem, I’m probably dumber than you :)
Lmao, you underestimate me.
No, YOU underestimate me.
Rather, YOU overestimate yourself.
But how do we stop? I’ve been thinking about my days on Adderall when I was younger and that maybe I need to be back on something like that to get out of the hellscape that is my head.
