Facts. Why would I want to do things today, when they're already planned for tomorrow?

That's asking for 2 bad days instead of 1...😬

I need noise to drown out my brain....#ADHD and sleep aren't really good friends, unfortunately.😬

If you are well organized, it is a healthy trait. no one would say you are "on the OCD spectrum".. but when that trait gets out of hand we would say you have OCD, and likely would be diagnosed as such.

I see (autism) ASD and ADHD as much the same way. Most people diagnosed with it who are high functioning dont really have it at all. It is just a personality trait and all in all a positive one. high-functioning ASD are just people without social hangups, good. And people with ADHD who are high-functioning are largely just amazing multi-taskers.

The harm in putting people on a spectrum is they see themselves asa diseased, broken, something that needs "consideration.. they arent, in most cases in the right proportions these "diseases" are in fact just super powers, things more people should wisht hey have really.

Speaking of tedium. Me and a friend know a guy with #ASD and who was absolutely mental at tedious tasks. "Do this until we tell you to stop." and he'd just keep going. One of his favourite games was WoW because of all the grinding. He was also a great metal guitar player for the same reason. Relentless monotonous practice until perfection was accomplished.

Unthinkable for me. I have #ADHD, so I'm pretty much the exact opposite. I virtually never rehearse anything. I play the keyboard but I can't even play through a single song. There's just no patience. Certain keyboard techniques are inaccessible to me for that reason. They're just too tedious to learn.

I knew for years that both my daughter and I had #ADHD before we ever got diagnosed. I won't question someone else's self-diagnosis. We know our bodies best. 🤘🖖

I'm so sorry, people don't understand

unmedicated #adhd is like... every moment takes forever in the moment, but then seems fleeting in retrospect

it's like constantly being overstimulated and understimulated at the same time

I'm so sorry

Yes, there is still a shortage of ADHD medications and it is global.

What's funny about the above diagram is that if you combine both of those circles, you have me on a good day and me on a bad day. Me simply functioning like a normal person? Almost doesn't happen. #depression #bipolar #ADHD


There's so much overlap between the two that it's questionable to me if they're even separate at all. Both affect the prefrontal cortex and the dopamine reward circuits in similar ways. And the same drugs are often used for both. And #depression or #bipolar is a common side effect of #ADHD.

Blir så glad för all respons på texten om #neurodiversitet!
Bland annat har jag idag lärt mig ett nytt begrepp: "kinetisk kognitiv stil" (#KCS) – en alternativ, icke-patologiserande benämning på #ADHD.

Somehow I missed this, but a study of over 2.4 million Swedes found no link between using acetaminophen (key ingredient in Tylenol) during pregnancy and risk of autism, ADHD, or other intellectual disabilities.

Bullet point 1 is the funniest thing I’ve ever read about #ADHD. Also true.

"What frequently underpins the external and internal chaos, according to experts and many ADHDers alike, is a pervasive sense of deep shame and the quiet realisation that their potential in life is not being met."

Well excuse me.

I see quite a few folks with #ADHD here & their struggles to keep up with tasks. I'm #ActuallyAutistic & can find it hard to not feel overwhelmed by what "must" be done resulting in more chaos/dirt/stuff to get #meltdowns about. Sigh…

Using this opportunity to get that off my chest & maybe offer some sort of solution for people like us.

I have always avoided them in case they contain something that might trigger my #adhd in a way that food dyes can. The idea it might be in my skin in much higher quantities is a nightmare.. I'm surprised, given the tattooed vegan hipster stereotype, that there has never been a visible market for alternatives.
