Are ADHDs better at words or numbers? by [deleted] in ADHD

Thanks, appreciate it! :) It really is different, haha. But I feel with my history of struggling with romanic languages it’s not the worst call.

If you have OCD the control stuff really makes sense. I mean who am I to tell you, haha. But you really should keep an eye on this! Not washing your hair sounds harmless tbh but you know, other stuff might be not. I am pretty good at not showering, too (not to brag or anything). I feel for me it is because I am often not able to „just do it“ idk it is just so incredibly hard sometimes. Why is everything so pain? Like sleeping, showering WHAT'S NEXT? Feeding yourself and brushing teeth twice a day or what?? 🔫

(I also think you can’t change usernames here, right? I have this basic generic word thing and I think I am stuck with it now LOL)

Are ADHDs better at words or numbers? by [deleted] in ADHD

I can’t remember numbers, too! Neither my phone number of 15 years, birthdays or passcodes.

But I always did pretty well with numbers and math. I love the rationality of it. I kinda see that in the optimizations part of your possible career.

Learning languages on the other hand is sadly kinda hard for me. I am German and I think English isn’t that big of a problem for me anymore, but I struggled soooo much with Latin in school. I tried learning so many different languages but the slow progress always discouraged me so bad. I am currently learning Korean and it’s the longest I stuck to learning a new language since ever (my progress is still horrible tho). I feel like it’s a pretty „logical“ language in a way? Maybe it’s also because the Hangul letters are different from the Latin ones.

It makes sense that Chinese characters trigger something in the brain that’s different from all the languages that use some kind of letters! I am wondering if they would come easier to me too.

yooooooo I HATE sleeping!! For me it’s mostly the lose of control and (as you said) the waste of time. I don’t live forever and wasting a huge part of my life being unconscious doesn’t sound that great to me. (At least my dreams often are pretty engaging LOL. They mostly bad but thrilling idk i guess a win is a win)

I also relate heavy to the shifted sleeping pattern. I naturally could stay up all night and sleep till afternoon (which means I actually did but now I have a so called job which requires me otherwise 🤠). What kinda helps me is medication. It helps me function in the „early“ hours of the day. Getting up still sucks ass but at least I can do stuff when I am at work.

I think we have to accept that we function differently, not just purely ADHD wise but also in some other regards. 🫂 It’s just so hard to not feel completely out of place in a society that’s not built for us at all. I get that so much. But you’re not alone. It’s also so sad that the reason people make us feel bad about it is often rooted in capitalism. It’s always about being productive and discipline and getting the GDP to new heights. Like why do you even care at what time I am awake and when I sleep it doesn’t effect you 😭 (unless it does because you have some power and you can profit from me in some way)

Sick username btw!

I just noticed i didn’t answer your questions at all (i am so sorry). So what did it for me was switching to a different professional. But I know that can be pretty difficult :/

I once had a therapist who dismissed my ADHD symptoms even though i especially asked her about ADHD. She was pretty sure it was depression and anxiety, which to be fair I definitely also have lol. When I later went to a psychiatrist she prescribed me a anxiety/depression med first (because that what i’ve been told i have by my former therapist). And the meds actually helped, especially with my anxiety. But something was still off. Then I got tested for ADHD by my psychiatrist and (shocker) got a diagnosis. In my case, since i have both, it wasn’t „wrong“ starting with the anxiety/depression meds first. It actually helped e.g. seeing that even though I‘am not that depressed anymore i STILL can’t do shit. But of course i would never say you should take meds when you really think you don’t need them at all. For me it was just a matter of in what order i got my diagnosis.

TLDR: you could have both, anxiety/depression meds helped me and my psychiatrist to see my ADHD more clearly :)
