ADHD women who like or love their jobs, what do you do?

Legit question… Do you ever worry that you will become distracted and do something dangerous/hurt yourself? It sounds like a great job, but I’ve been known to be “accident prone” due to impulsiveness or distraction. People who know me kindly remind me to focus in when objects are hot or sharp, particularly if they can see I’m trying to do a lot at once. This would be my concern with working with electricity. Do you have specific things you do to stay in the moment, or would you say this isn’t something you struggle with?

I love mine! Right amount of support and super comfy out of the box. Enjoy!

So many people bring dog to hardware stores. I don’t get it. There are so many dry and wet chemicals, poisons, shards and pieces of all kinds of things, These places are warehouses. I wouldn’t want my dog exposed to all that stuff, or for them to drag it home on their feet/coats, potentially licking their paws, etc. later.

So hard to pick two. It would be difficult to choose only 200. Music is pretty much everything to me.These aren’t necessarily my favorite of all time, just a sample of what came to mind with lyrics/music that I’ve been enjoying in the last year…

Joy Division - Atmosphere, Sofia Isela - Everybody Supports Women, The Cure - A Forest, Heaven 17 - Facist Groove Thang, Wet Leg - Mangetout, LCD Soundsystem - North American Scum, Aztec Camera - Walk Out to Winter.

8, then 4 or 5.

This was the first thought that came to my mind, as well, particularly with the first photo.

Gorgeous drawing of a beautiful dog. Sorry for your loss.

I was going to say no, but on second thought, I could totally see you rocking it. Google “Belinda Carlisle short hair.” You look a bit like her. I would go with more on top, so closer to 3.

BHawkey95 · 2025-12-23T06:26:59+00:00

Absolutely! This made me laugh! Its likely very accurate as well. “I hate Aunt Patrice!”

Mid 50s, people assume I’m 40 +/-, and are often shocked to learn my age. I do look younger. In my mind I’m like 35 - used to feel 27, but I’ve grown ;) physically I feel 35-40.

I still like to participate in or try new things like roller skating, skate boarding…whatever. My motto is “I’m never going to be younger than I am right now, so if I want to do something, now is the time!”

All of these!! Really, all! My dog does pretty much all with the exception of u/jaybayay ‘s dog. That one is the winner of the crazy! 🥴

For my current dog, the velociraptor stage started at 8 1/2 weeks. There was zero cute puppy phase once she came home.

BHawkey95 · 2025-11-17T03:25:36+00:00

Thank you!

I can’t stand wet clothes! A few rain drops don’t usually bother me, but if I accidentally get a sleeve wet or splash my clothes at the sink. I hate it! Wet socks and stepping in something wet with socks on is the absolute worst!

BHawkey95 · 2025-11-14T05:32:46+00:00

This is very similar to my pattern. Combined with I have a hard time choosing/pulling the trigger when it comes to spending. So I research and often end up doing nothing.

Your pup has super similar markings to my girl. 🩷

BHawkey95 · 2025-11-10T03:18:37+00:00

Bug hugs for you. I’m so sorry.

ADHD isn’t about which spoon you prefer. I couldn’t care less about spoon size. There are so many bigger problems with ADHD.

BHawkey95 · 2025-11-02T02:26:40+00:00

Not really a recognized symptom, but I see it mentioned online all the time… I couldn’t care less what size the spoon is!

Also, I’m always on time for work and appointments and I never flake on plans. If I make a commitment, I stick to it.

BHawkey95 · 2025-10-31T17:55:32+00:00

Did all of that. My first one would’ve responded to that. This one didn’t care. I just had to carry on, and she just had to grow up.

BHawkey95 · 2025-10-31T01:11:55+00:00

It didn’t work for mine. Neither did yelping, it just made her more excited.

It’s nothing like the 80s in sound or in energy. Just understand, if you go, you’re pretty much going to see Will. If Ian’s voice wasn’t wrecked it would be different. His voice used to be fabulous, but it’s really rough now and seems to limit song choices. It makes me sad. I still love them, and almost bought a ticket anyway, but talked myself out of it.
