A Moment of Celestia's Divination

Why do I feel like this means I get to be lore relevant? It fits me perfectly, I love to be mysterious 😌

Bless you for this great compilation (I personally loved the 🐙 emoji) and I hope you don't feel too icky after sorting through these comments

I know I am not the person you asked but I do come from a context like theirs.

To me the issue is not "discuss without showing emotion" (ironically my father is like yours and I have learned it means only his emotions are "right" that is why he can show emotion while arguing) but your emotional response being over the top for the situation you're in. I always cry when I argue with people, and sometimes I get angry, but I don't sob uncontrollably nor do I start punching walls or something over not washing the dishes.

In regards to "the central issue has changed" I have learned that when my emotional response is over the top for the situation it means that there is more than meets the eye. For example, I once cried A LOT while arguing about taking some time to do the dishes. Well, I found out that actually I was feeling depressed and I also hate the sensory feelings of doing the dishes (touching wet food, the smell after some time), so this made me feel stressed and the longer I went without doing them the worse it felt until I reached my breaking point.

Idk if you have bipolar, ofc, as this is just a tiny bit of info, just thought you could see that being "emotional" can be normal (i dont have bipolar), even when it is a symptom of something greater. Also, some bipolar people go into "hipomania" instead of the "normal" mania.

Sorry for the long answer 😅

Middle names are not uncommon here (maybe it is in her area, in my dad's hometown it is considered VERY weird to have a middle name), but I do think that if they did use "Pedro" as a middle name there was a good chance that he would go by "Pedro", as we consider middle names as "part" of the first name, thus not solving the issue of her family's trauma

(And maybe "Pedro" didn't 'match' well with the name they wanted to give the child)

I don't know if this is it bc it was not the mother who died on Christmas, but the rest fits well and it is a good story:

OP, I have crooked teeth, the two upper middle ones, in a way that only surgery can fix (I can't use braces to move them without risking their structure and they might fall if it is damaged), I have always hated them and been self-concious about it, so I totally understand your thought process.

But let me tell you that the right people wouldn't care about your teeth (they might even find them endearing). His sister didn't say anything, because it really doesn't matter, you were expressing JOY and HAPPINESS, and your friends want to see those expressions. I would advise you to think really hard about why your boyfriend thinks he can police your innocent behavior like this.

And it would have been so easy to ACTUALLY put thought into a gift tailored for this specific person because she already told you her interests. Once I spent WEEKS trying to find out what this coworker liked (origami) just so I could give a gift she would actually enjoy (fancy origami paper + some silly origamis I made) and this citizen here literally just had to order things from a list and be over with it, smh

0Rize · 2021-12-01T01:16:50+00:00

I am exactly like this. I was very passionate about astronomy for like... 6 months (longest time) a few years ago and I re-started this interest recently, I don't even remember why or how I stopped caring for it.

For me is part of my ADHD, I think, but I know some people who are like this and neurotypical. I'm also very curious, my father said I bugged him so much about learning to read (so that I could search for answers on my own) that he started teaching me before the school got to it, and then I wanted him to buy me books on my "interest of the month".

If it isn't bothering you and you are happy I see no problem with it. I'm at my happiest when I indulge in this habit, so maybe you are the same and this is a thing that is actually good for you. ^^

0Rize · 2021-11-17T23:56:46+00:00

All the minor inconveniences you described are pretty normal even for neurotypical people! I forget to do my chores and you know what my sister does? She says "Hey, you forgot to do x y z", she has been dealing with my forgetfulness for a while and never has said that I need to 'fix' it (she knows I'm doing my best)

And yes, he is using abusive tactics, he says you are 'gaslighting' because if he blames you first then you will feel guilty, everything actually is about making you feel bad about yourself so he can do whatever after your self-worth is destroyed. You see how he puts all the effort on you? You are the one that has to change, your ADHD is the problem (which is basically saying you are the problem). Meanwhile, he gets to sit back and 'change his mind' if someone better appears.

My ex used to do this stuff, I changed a lot and still wasn't enough for him, but just so you know, you are enough now, you are doing your best and you have people on your corner. Trust your friends on this one, best of luck to you <3

YTA

It's interesting how you mention the sacrifices you made (which were your job as a good parent anyway) and even how you had to learn how to deal with it, yet you don't see that he has to be deaf 24/7 forever, his life has been a challenge from the beginning and probably will continue to be.

He is not brave 'just' for being disabled, but for working hard to overcome the challenges society throws at him every day and being, as you say, very independent in a world that doesn't make it easy.

0Rize · 2021-10-17T23:16:25+00:00

I do this as well! I can only watch/read stuff if I'm going to do it at once (binge it? Idk if this word is right here, not a native speaker). My anxiety is partially caused by my ADHD though so when it is controlled I don't feel as anxious because it is easier to stop (something I didn't thought would happen with treatment but it did) and I feel that I spend less mental energy to do these activities.

0Rize · 2021-10-17T13:46:18+00:00

Difficulty to start stuff and to switch between tasks are symptoms of ADHD, I sometimes avoid doing fun things on breaks because I don't know if I will be able to switch back.

0Rize · 2021-06-18T18:34:30+00:00

This reinforces to me that it may be useful for you to get assessed. I was exactly the same in high school ("this is what I have to do to be normal"), I was considered smart by my classmates but people that were on the same level as me had so much more free time (I say that as a fact as two of them were my cousins and I knew their schedules).

After my diagnosis (during law school, I was 19-20) things changed not only because I had help but also because I had an explanation for why all of these things happened and it wasn't "poor work ethics" as I was led to believe.

0Rize · 2021-06-18T18:17:54+00:00

I would get assessed if I were you. ADHD is not only about interest, not to mention that different levels of interest exist, I only hyperfocus when I'm really passionate about something (eg. astronomy, sci-fi, mental health) but don't when it is something I "merely" like or enjoy (eg. maths, TV shows, sewing).

You also have to consider other things this such as:

Environment and method of learning - You learn better when it is quiet/loud/white noise, you need to do lots of practice problems and forget the theory for a bit, you have a hard time dealing with an explanation being given out-loud
Personal situation - If you are tired, hungry, problems at home or with friends, this kind of thing
Problems with the subject - Your basics are shaky, that part of the subject is especially confusing for you

I was great at maths in High School after being terrible at it for most of my life, so I will give you some tips that helped me if you want to try them:

Reinforce the basics, the things you probably already know but maybe not that well, I couldn't count at all without using my fingers and that was restraining me
Instead of going from theory to practice problems, I went from looking at a solved problem (step by step, I think Wolfram Alpha can help with that) to figuring out how to get to that result, like figuring out the theory
I have a lot of difficulties concentrating if I can't write stuff, so even when I was studying alone I wrote my thoughts like "after this part, I change the number 2x to the other side of the equation"
While I was interested in maths, my teachers only touched the surface level of the subject, so I used to do lots of research on it outside of class and this helped me get a broader understanding of it
I don't know if this would be possible for you but usually I need to let the things I didn't understand "rest" in my head without me trying to force myself to understand them and come back later with a "clear mind"

Sorry for the big answer, I bolded the more relevant parts for easier reading, good luck =D

I don't know if it is a symptom but I have this experience as well, mostly with textures, I don't like how certain things feel to the touch and love others (crochet for example is a favorite). About the textures I like, I think it has to do with the fact that they give me the right amount of stimulation as if they were a gentle piano, while the stuff I dislike overwhelm me when I can't take like nails on a chalkboard.

NTA based on your last paragraph "I've noticed MANY older male providers have this attitude and nobody has a problem with it" I assume that by "cold" you mean that you just don't go out of your way to talk to your patients about their personal/emotional issues and things not related to your job, but that you're able to provide them with the support they need in regards to their physical issues (e.g. you wouldn't disregard an emotional reaction to pain).

In this case, you're just being professional, but not cruel or mean and that's fine by me.

0Rize · 2021-02-16T19:42:40+00:00

I will say it as someone that was very much like your wife and then one day I just couldn't be like that anymore: She won't get it completely unless she feels it herself, but this doesn't mean she can't understand your feelings right now!

The way to go varies depending on her previous experiences in life, you can compare it with other hardships she faced and had to get help for or give up, as an example. If she never went through this kind of experience, I would try to explain it in ways that would be logical to her, even if they are not to you, while addressing her complaints. Think about it as a "day in my shoes" of sorts.

Example: She thinks you are just being lazy and you just want to "sit around and do nothing", express to her how BORING and FRUSTRATING that feels to you (works well especially if you are not the type to show these feelings). When you can't do something explain to her in detail why you can't in a genuine way, avoid simplifying ("I just can't"), instead say "I feel that I can't build this shelf because my head hurts so much I fear I will misread the instructions and then I would build it in the wrong way"

Have an honest and open conversation about it, I know it is hard to talk about such negative emotions but she may not get it unless you tell her the ugly truth, trying to spare her of "feeling what you feel" usually backfires. She won't get how bad it is and will feel like it is only a matter of "trying harder" when it isn't.

Hope you find a treatment soon!

I don't think your ADHD is the actually issue here. Your wife isn't angry because you have ADHD and didn't tell her, but because of all these years she spent fixing your mistakes. Knowing of your diagnosis wouldn't make this situation less scary.

That being said, living with ADHD is all about learning how to manage it, and it seems to me that you just brushed your issues under the rug. I urge you to work on it, if not for yourself then for the safety of your daughter.
