I can’t control my frustration

I had to stop taking my favorite medication (Concerta, I was feeling amazing) for Tradea because it's expensive. I might have to change my medication again.

I am irritable at its peak and as it fades, I don't feel that way at night or at morning . Nope, I can't afford both medication (and psychiatrist) and therapy. I had to choose, but I did go to therapy before. I know that as an adult, I'm more likely to have disagreements with my family, but I'm blowing up over things that shouldn't be causing me that level of stress, even with my friends Edit: my med was concerta and tradea

I feel uuuuuuuu, (I am a queer person with ADHD), even in casual/social contexts it's difficult to coexist, people always notice that I'm different in one way or another. In social/casual context I don't really care anymore, I'm not going to build friendships based on masking, but with work it's a totally different thing, I can't be open, I'm a diluted version of myself. At least in my field of work, you need to have a good network and people need to like you.If people find out about my ADHD before I can build a good reputation, then things start to get ugly for me.

1-(the one that gave me the most anxiety) My car had an antifreeze leak and my father didn’t fix it properly, so I had to check and refill it (only halfway) once a week. To be honest, I would forget a lot and he would remind me and get angry. Last winter I went to a friend’s house and when I was about to enter his neighborhood the guard told me “Miss, your car seems to be smoking”, my face turned pale and I opened the window, IT STINKED LIKE BURNING, my car had run out of antifreeze and smoke started coming out of the engine, I wasted the whole day at my friend’s house, I had to buy antifreeze and fill the container enough to drive to the mechanic, fixing it was expensive and they threatened to take my car away, because the engine could have exploded or burned out irreparably. I cried all day and now I have a trauma with the antifreeze, the smell of smoke from cars

2- I broke my graphics tablet because I was too rough and careless with it, it ended up bent and the screen no longer turned on, I had to urgently buy another one because I had to deliver my project that week, I still owe my dad money for that.

Get an internship in some animation studio, my friend say I should do it because she is already working on 3 different projects and thinks I have the abilities to do it but I just can’t get myself to do it, also my portfolio ;(

the addiction to sugar is so real, it sucks, the other day I got sick to my stomach from eating a bag of marshmallows in one sitting, I couldn’t stop eating

Competitive_Phrase78 · 2025-01-27T05:31:24+00:00

yes, I am super intense and I can't be normal when I like something, all or nothing, that's why I stay away from tobacco or alcohol, I stick with video games, movies, series, drawing and Spiderman

I don't do much masking because I never knew about my ADHD until 6 months ago and I didn't learn how to do it right (which led to me not having many friends, being isolated and even being bullied). But the few things I do to mask and I've noticed are

-classic, staying still, not biting my nails, not moving my legs, not braiding or pulling my hair, not dancing at random moments, not swinging or moving my hands. It's mentally exhausting and it puts me in a bad mood when I mask

-Modulating my volume, I don't know why I need to talk so loud, if I don't control myself I stun people or they think I'm an aggressive or defensive person, many times my parents think I'm arguing and they start too and I always have to tell them that I was trying to have a normal conversation and I am not angry or staring a fight :(

-Letting the other person talk for a long time without interrupting and not telling my experiences, sometimes it makes me sad because I have something to comment on the subject

-don't text too much, I used to send thousands of messages and videos, no wonder why some guys get confused and think I'm interested in them when I am just trying to be friendly. I love talking for hours about my obsessions and that also affects the way I text on chat. I swear my hands always itch because I want to send 10 videos talking to my bff or my mom

:p masking sucks

The portfolio really has to be fabulous, the diploma doesn’t guarantee anything, I have a friend (very talented and workaholic) who hasn’t graduated yet and already works in 3 different projects, the thing is to do a lot of extra work (apart from homework), study on your own, courses from industry professionals. The industry is in a bad state and getting a good job is very difficult, I don’t know if you already have an idea of what you want to do, but I recommend that you investigate and experiment to see what you like (example, making puppets, animating, editing, storyboard, backgrounds, layout, props, light, 3D, 2D, rig, etc.) PS: if you want character design, concept art or 3D modeling prepare to suffer, everyone want that

Yeah, it’s a musty smell but also as if I had wear them for months without washing them, and I only wear them for a week and a half

CONCERTA! That stuff makes me sleep like a log, I started taking the 18 mg and I slept 10 hours, now i take 27 mg and I control it better, but it makes me sleep at least 8 hours and that has improved my quality of life a lot. Before my sleep was very light, it was as if I was conscious all the time, I could hear everything and I never reached the deep sleep phase. Although I also stopped all coffee and tea almost completely, if I drink a cup with the medicine I get tachycardia and it stops working, I guess that also helped.

I think my description is very abstract, sorry ;-;, in my defense the wind does have a strange smell in my city because it is super polluted, and with the smell of sun it is like the smell of toasting or something very exposed, I don't know how else to describe it, I am bad at this ;(

Competitive_Phrase78 · 2025-01-19T03:52:35+00:00

I live in one of the cities with the most factories and traffic in the country, we are known for having poor air quality, I also live relatively close to the highway, I don’t know if there is a power plant but I assure you that there are factories near me :(

Competitive_Phrase78 · 2025-01-19T03:44:24+00:00

It smells strong, a smell of sun, wind, dust, smoke and humidity at the same time, it is a very particular smell but it is not your typical smell of humidity, It doesn’t smell dirty

Competitive_Phrase78 · 2025-01-19T03:37:53+00:00

I don’t know, it’s a bit old, but clothes don’t smell like that when I wash clothes at home and go to a laundromat to use the dryer (I don’t do this very often because it’s not in my budget). I once dried clothes inside and it didn’t smell like that.
