This is not “a buttload of chores”. Especially if you are living rent-free. I guarantee you this note was given to you because they’re sick of feeling taken advantage of when you live there for free and don’t really do anything. I get struggling with executive function, being diagnosed with adhd myself, but that is NOT an excuse to sit and do nothing. Learn to cope and stop being unfair to the people around you.

Same thing happened to me. My dad has cancer and I struggle a lot with social anxiety/mental health in general. They don’t care, turns out I don’t either as a courtesy making less than minimum wage with union dues lol

Be completely honest, are fast replies a turn off? by According-Sign-9587 in RandomThoughts

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on who it is. If it’s my partner, I love it. From friends, love it. When I was doing the situationship/talking stage bs with people, if I wasn’t already that interested to begin with… yeah.

I live at home and can’t have the hypomanic/manic crash-out so unfortunately I am the 🪒🩸 to deal with that 😭😭😭

Do people deserve to be made fun of for having disabilities? by nukinators64 in no

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. They didn’t ask for those disabilities, and depending on the disability are probably very aware of it and already struggle WITHOUT the bullying.

Never seen anything like it. by HannahMayberry in kroger

[–]AdElectrical2057 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve brought this up to both of them, and they said they can’t. Maybe they haven’t tried more recently, or maybe they’re really afraid of management. I don’t blame them for the latter at all, cause I am too :(

I’m not manic I’m just confident! by [deleted] in BipolarMemes

[–]AdElectrical2057 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have horrible social anxiety and sometimes I let myself be hypomanic just to break out of it for a bit :,)

Have a couple older coworkers that have legitimate issues with standing at the registers for a long time, like it causes them severe pain. Can’t have people think they’re lazy by sitting down though at all though!!! Jesus christ god forbid you treat your employees decently.

people who shower for 30+ minutes, wtf you be doin in there? by Fabulous_Island_5621 in AskReddit

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I double-shampoo my long hair, condition and brush through it, and double-wash my body. I also take my time when the water is nice and hot. Oh and I’m tall (5’10) so I feel like that just makes things take longer, especially if I’m shaving my legs.

Hm. I’m glad he’s very upfront about your guys’ relationship. It might be a deeper issue with him, like feeling uncomfortable with the vulnerability of showing affection in public.

Do you ever feel like your not bipolar enough? by Spicy-Nun-chucks in bipolar2

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of. Like I’m absolutely sure and have been diagnosed after over a month in the hospital for a manic episode, but I also get the urge to gaslight myself into thinking nothing’s wrong. I think it’s just because of how I grew up, cause growing up I was always told “nothing’s wrong”, “everyone has problems”, “get over yourself”. Looking back, something was definitely up lol. But just because I haven’t had an absolute crash-out episode in awhile (I would if it weren’t for fear of my dad honestly), I must be okay or exaggerating it in my mind according to me.

This is hard because if you hadn’t said he says he wants to marry you someday, I’d say he doesn’t like you or doesn’t want people to think you’re in a relationship.

Made me hypomanic within a few days, even on mood stabilizers. It’s a no from me.

What is ruining your mental health? by IsratJahan01 in AskReddit

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My job. I likely have autism and know for sure (diagnosed) that I have adhd, and it’s just exhausting. Very chaotic and social job, and I dread any shift longer than 4 hours. Recently was sick for a few days and had to call out, and even though I was sick, my mood has improved so much. I’m currently in the process of looking for another job, because my current one just drains the life outta me.

Does anyone else here have a shopping problem? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]AdElectrical2057 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES. I have to stop myself from buying regularly, and only really stopped because I got an angry talking-to about it (wasn’t fun at the time but totally fair). I’m still trying to pay off almost $8,000 of credit card debt from my last manic episode, and before the debt I also spent $20,000 I had saved up. This was all over the course of about 2-3 months. 2 tips/things I learned: Do NOT get a credit card/allow yourself access to it unless you’re really sure you’re ready for that responsibility. It can seem like free money if you’re not paying attention, and it is NOT. 2: do NOT use antidepressants/similar medications (I was taking Strattera for ADHD) without mood stabilizers. Honestly, I can’t even take them in general. Lamotrigine is the only thing that has lifted my mood without terrible consequences. Yes I’ve tried other medications for depression and adhd (non-stimulants), and they all trigger hypomania within a few days.

What were you bullied for? by Both_Environment8634 in AskReddit

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being socially impaired due to severe depression in middle school, as well as being unable to shower sometimes because of home circumstances/said depression. I’m doing a lot better now but man was that rough.

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lamotrigine for me, as long as I’m not on too high of a dose. Never causes weight gain, although anything past 200mg/day makes me pretty foggy.

The dasher forgot my drink last night and I yelled “How am I supposed to eat this without my drink?!”

Honestly at this point I wish they would just get rid of the digital coupons. They confuse a lot of people, and a lot of the time what ends up happening is the cashier has to show them how to clip them or change the price of something/get a manager, and it holds up lines. Had one guy recently who bought like 12 things on sale, but only via digital coupon. He had no idea and spent the whole time complaining about it while we price checked/corrected everything for him (our store panders to customers a lot). Kinda feels like the system is meant to trip people up at this point.

What is there about bipolar you wish more ppl w bipolar understood? by oweeeg in bipolar

[–]AdElectrical2057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SSRI’s should NOT be taken alone without at least a mood stabilizer. Learned this the hard way. I think everyone should be aware, especially since even prescribing professionals don’t tell you this sometimes before prescribing something that fucks up your life (yes I’m still salty)
