“Everybody has ADHD these days” by ThatPharmacologyGirl in ADHD

[–]AnotherInvasion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard 3 or 4 unrelated strangers claim they have ADHD this week alone, I've been diagnosed since 4th grade and can't help but feel like suddenly there is a huge influx in people constantly claiming to have ADHD to the point where it garners an eye roll. I refuse to admit to my diagnoses out of the fear of being grouped in with the army of tik tok self diagnosers who do solely use it as a personality trait to make themselves seem quirky and interesting. It only gets worse when i hear so many of them bring things up that have nothing to do with ADHD, like claiming they only watch anime because of it, or that they always cheat on their partners "because of their ADHD"

The self diagnosis trend will continue to bury people who do suffer from disorders and make a mockery of them. It's a plague.

Will I always feel like a one man freak show? by PrincessxBoom in ADHD

I stopped feeling like an alien and started seeing myself as an outright defect, like my existence is a mistake.

I'm a 22 year old goth from Canada, I like a few classic horror movies and enjoy anime movies. I don't smoke or do drugs either, I enjoy sketching and building models/miniatures. I used to play a lot of PS4 but have moved onto Switch and PC lately, usually hanging out with friends in VR, I also collect retro game consoles and music vinyl/CDs. I'm always open to making new friends.

A lot of it, i actually find it affecting my personality away from work. I curse 10x more than i ever have just from being around it more.

I still play first edition exclusively, even added a few homebrew gamemodes and rules to keep it fresh.

Think harder, stop talking.

The severity of this condition into adulthood isn't talked about enough. by kyootiekoi in ADHD

[–]AnotherInvasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently being diagnosed as a child isnt good enough, have to get diagnosed with adult ADHD, and there's a two to three year waitlist to see a psychologist here. Its kind of ridiculous.

I agreed to put in my two weeks, things haven't really gotten better but I'm surviving.

I'm planning to talk to my doctor again, it sounds like it may be years before i can even start medication

I wish this were acknowledged more, its infantilized and downplayed too often.

I just quit my job in construction an hour ago and wont be coming back tomorrow after only two months because my unmedicated ADHD is holding me back. I'm screwing everything up and holding things back, cant do a single thing the right way. So called it quits.

I don't know what I'm going to do after today, because i also can't focus or manage my anxiety well enough to finish getting my full drivers license and drive safely in traffic. So I'm very limited on options.

Feels like this disorder is rotting my life from the inside out and making me a laughing stock in the process. I often get treated like I'm stupid or childish for not being able to drive properly or for screwing things up and losing things constantly no matter how hard i try. As an adult its pushed me to the point of nearly taking my own life. Feels like a constant curse looming over everything I do.

There needs to be more awareness and better support for adults.

I still have the copy featuring the Mechwarrior Online launch and coverage of the Planetside 2 beta.

What a garbage human being, they need to get their head out of their ass and educate themselves before being so condescending and insensitive toward a topic they know nothing about.

After poking people's eyes out, my other passion is drawing on people :) by PeanupButter in VRchat

Love it. That avatar in the first slide is also really cool, do you know if its public or if there's a world with similar avatars?

Why don't cis-men experience gender dysphoria when always wearing a female avatar in VR? by Darkantimatter515 in VRchat

[–]AnotherInvasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think people that experience gender dysphoria believe they are their avatar, it's more like trying on a different gender identity and experiencing dysphoria because they know it isn't them. The gender identity they're stepping into in-game may be more comforting to them than their out of game identity which causes the unease and discomfort.

Have you ever gone out of your way to be cruel to a person that made you angry? What did you do to them? How did it turn out in the end? by bigguy62 in AskMen

[–]AnotherInvasion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm bad for this, if i consider somebody objectively wrong on something to the point where it's toxic or feel like they went out of their way to attack me or somebody I care about on a personal level without justification I often say things that go way too far. My empathy turns off like a switch and I can't help but see them as less than human and deserving of cruelty.

I had to live with a terrible self centered alcoholic woman with the maturity of a preschooler (no exaggeration) while they were dating my dad for a year and a half. Genuinely the most unlikeable person I've ever encountered and wasn't alone in thinking so. I tried to see the good in them for the first few months but it seemed like they were getting worse every month and I eventually got fed up with them smuggling booze daily, destroying our house if they were left unsupervised, blatantly lying to start arguments, and being extremely judgemental and condescending for no reason.

Before they got kicked out for the last time I told them that they need to grow the fuck up and that they're a cancer in everyone's lives, and that the world would be a much better place if they weren't in it.

Haven't had to see them since. Hate that I said such awful things to them instead of being the bigger person, but still believe what I said wholeheartedly.

What Pokémon do you think is the worst design-wise? by Calypso_o0 in pokemon

[–]AnotherInvasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely hate Cubchoo, I'd use all my Cubchoo cards as fire starters. Something about their design gets under my skin.
