I only got diagnosed because I was at the hospital for something else, and the local specialist noticed something was off with my behaviour. (I was there for a little while, to be fair.)
As an adult, navigating anything administrative is a nightmare.
I’d be pissed that i have to keep changing banks, because they go bankrupt too often… Like, can’t one use the same financial institution for 1000 years without worrying about it?
Being a hunter also means you want the animals that you eat to live a free natural life, rather than being raised in a prison (farm).
Except that “forgetting things” is the most salient symptom of ADHD, while “being an asshole” is nowhere near the autism spectrum.
Hahaha, oups, I didn’t notice the community… My bad!
NASA before: 50% of my budget is dedicated to science ed and public outreach. Also, by law of the USA, everything I do is instantly public domain.
ESA before: i keep all my data private forever, unless NASA forces me to publish it.
NASA now: shadow of private space corps.
ESA now: hey, look, I’m not SpaceX!
Edit: I want to know more about esa before i jump in the hype train.
So this post is an ad?
Edit: I didn’t notice the community 😅
When disassembling something, always tape the loose screws onto it using marking tape or transparent packing tape (whichever doesn’t break the item’s surface.)
This way I never misplaced screws.
Hanging out with friends that are just as “non-punctual” as myself.
Accepting and embracing the fact that I’m very spontaneous in decision making.
Accepting that I am how I am and that my friends accept and like me that way.
Also, realising that this question was not about adhd in general and more about anxiety, but it’s too late to rewrite everything. Sorry! I’m one of the lucky one who doesn’t have anxiety on the bingo card…
Having taken high-dose medication, I understand that anxiety sucks, but I don’t really have tricks to share against it…
Being this passionate about cola is just the marketing that has been internalised as part of one’s identity.
Is Pepsi ok? No I’d rather have a real drink please.
To me, the last panel is when backpack traveling and sleeping in a hostel in Europe.
I love this version: https://youtu.be/5szuJsQzScA
😢 Soul-having (what’s the opposite of soulless?) people will just be forced to work in the corporate world without making more money…
Don’t worry, men will go in the corporate world and make more money than women professors.
I strongly feel like I’m O+, and there should not be any A or Bs in my public bathrooms!
I put them on my 2L water bottle
Just like my farts!
I don’t like the wording “developmental disorder of the brain” when talking about brain functions… Because to me if somebody is shorter than somebody else, we don’t call it “developmental disorder of the bones”
What is the prevalence of ADHD compared to “physical” developmental disorders?
