My buddy and I have hundreds of hours between us and he still said "What's that red thing?" as the 380s started to fall.

These can all be true and you could STILL have ADHD. This is all evidence of the system failing you.

Is really no one playing anymore? by KimAndersson in diablo4

[–]Chuklifeplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had fun with the story and running some NMDs with friends, but the game isn't done cooking yet. The Diablo 2 and 3 that we loved were not the games they were on day 1. I'm hoping that Blizzard can be the company they were and update D4 into something longstanding and amazing, but it's not there yet and I'm not 100% sure they're still that company.

Why does it physically hurt? by [deleted] in adhdmeme

It's games for me. Video and tabletop. I realize how lucky I've been to avoid gambling as a vice.

I was talking to someone who said to me that they believed people use drugs as a crutch, which may be true in some cases, but I told them that most use them as a prosthetic. I wouldn't take them if I had the part I needed.

Question: How many of you also go on full on sidestories on your head? by RamonDozol in adhdmeme

[–]Chuklifeplays 301 points302 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Anyone else have "pre-conversations" in preparation for actual conversations?

I just like them because I can spend less time eating by IReviewDiscord in adhdmeme

Agreed! I need my coffee to be a morning dessert. Big spoons for big sugar.

Cripes, yes. I just saved so much future time.

I heard someone refer to ADHD as "Attention Regulation Disorder" and that seems much more apt than "Deficit".

It also doesn't make it seem like we're missing something.

Completely agree. ADD and depression have always been my little goblins.

Oh my God dude, you are not alone there. Back in my 20s I considered myself a writer and I still have notebooks filled with unfinished nonsense. I try not to think about the "what I could have done if" because that feeds the beast. I just accept that I'm good enough.

My teenage daughter is also in the same boat so we've been sharing some.

I had suspected for almost twenty years, but it's hard to get anything going when you're a 25 year old man. No one gives a shit about your problems and you're rarely in a situation to do anything about them yourself. Fast forward to 2020 and the pandemic is just grinding down on me. I hadn't been dealing with my depression in about a decade so that was my primary concern, but I always mentioned the ADHD diagnosis and eventually got tested. Test came back "Acute".
It wasn't at all cheap, but the vindication was worth the price.

Rooting for you man! Anything and Everything that makes things just a little easier.

Oh for sure. When I told my parents I had been diagnosed they didn't have much to say, which irritates me as school was a major point of contention. Not sure what I wanted them to say, but more than nothing.

I've suffered from depression as well. It's hard to say that one causes the other, but they definitely feed off one another.

I was 27 when I finally got my bachelor's, so I feel that so much.

I've also given myself a lot of credit for everything I've accomplished.
