Adhd

adhd

It comes on suddenly and hits your whole body like truck. Your whole nervous system just goes offline. And rest, the typical cure for burnout, only makes the guilt and shame spiraling worse as you become more and more restless. The worst part is it happens over the smallest things making this cycle a common and frequent one. 

Remember to drink water today.

ADHD Burnout is the Worst

The struggle

I doubt anyone will be as proud of myself as I am, but I successfully was able to realize when I was emotionally dysregulated at work and got myself back to regulation using my coping mechanisms. This is the first time it actually felt like a success. Progress was made today. 😌

Emotional Regulation Success

Trying to date and meet new people is so hard with rejection sensitivity. Where's my I-ruined-everything-by-thinking-I-ruined-everything gang? Please tell me I'm not the only one.

Rejection Sensitivity

It's a curse

🧠🤯

Me in a nutshell

I can distract myself from anything. Even nothing.

Constant distraction

Award show

Living life as a late diagnosed AuDHD woman

Inner strength

This is one of the reasons we have short life spans... Yes, that is 14 PSI in my 32 PSI tire 🤦

Okay Who Let Me Be an Adult?

Hey everyone 🌸😊

I was looking for the game of thrones dvds I have and found the 1st and 3rd seasons on dvd but I couldent find the 2nd season. I spent some time looking and couldn't find it and I almost gave up and was going to buy another copy on eBay but then I found it. This time I got lucky but I often will lose stuff and buy replacements and then I find the thing I lost later...😞

The ADHD tax almost struck again

I would chug coffee and energy drinks to wake up/stay awake only to think that I just had a high tolerance and needed at least 800mg of caffeine to feel something.

Took decades to realize it was ADHD.

How do you deal with extreme executive dysfunction and imposter syndrome?

How do you deal?

I lost my phone for like the third time today and had to call it the second time 😭

I lose my phone to much

Ops!

Some of the downsides. This is an honest take from someone who is diagnosed.

Downsides of Adhd love

Adhd and money

Why I cannot tidy my desk, even though I want to tidy my desk very much and I'm 100% ready to tidy up my desk

Quite a problematic situation 🥲

🧠⁉️

Yup checks out lol

🤙

Anyone ralate?

Oh no! Always at the same path?

Is it just me or am I the only one feeling paralyzed with no motivation? I don’t have a sense of direction with my career or anything. I don’t need advice. I just want to know if anyone else is feeling the same.

Feeling Stuck

It’s not easy being a scatterbrained mom trying to help her equally scatterbrained son study for a history test… 
I know it’s hard for him to focus and remember things that don’t really interest him.

I’ve turned our kitchen into a visual learning lab and I’m this close to losing it.. 🤏 Chaos. We laugh. It’s a coping mechanism. Ready to act some cavemen scenes. The test is tomorrow. Pray for us. 🙏🤣

🥲🆘️

As someone who is currently undiagnosed, but 99% sure that I have ADHD, how do I go about getting a definitive answer?

How do you get diagnosed?

Explaining your hyperfixation to the target of that behavior what was going on in your mind vs reality. Anyone else had to do that recently? How did it go? The response I got was "Okay, I'm sorry".

Please and thank you. 🫠🤷🏻‍♀️🥴

Forgot the measurements

So uh, how do normal people start conversations after you match? 😅

Unmed adhd be like

Me: I’ll just put this thing here so I don’t forget it.
Also me 5 minutes later: Where the hell did I put that thing??

ADHD Starter Pack

I keep forgetting my meds until I'm rudely reminded by my pain increasing that i havent. Issue is i have tried alarms, ive tried daily to do lists, having a meds box, organisers ect but nothing works, i have the same issue with coping strategies and doing a pain diary, unless they're taped to my body imma lose them and forget they exist, I barely even remember to eat and drink so I feel like im fighting a losing battle, im still stuck on the referral list for assessment/diagnosis but I've ran tests with therapists that agree Its highly likely I have adhd and autism they just don't have the power to diagnose me. So I don't even have the meds that could help with focus and memory, just a bunch for my other physical disabilities which I really should take multiple times a day

To be clear im after unhinged methods you've personally used for your adhd, all basic answers i have tried, multiple times in multiple different ways, im after something like you had them from the ceiling to hit you in the head when you wake up level unhinged

How do you remember everything
