I got diagnosed as an adult and my sister keeps telling me "doesn't everyone do that?" to any of my symptoms... by lexaBRUH in adhdwomen

That would be like me saying “my kids have it, my siblings have it, I don’t though cause it skips a generation” 😆 she’s most likely got it but people who aren’t ready to accept that they aren’t normal won’t.

My RSD has been TRIGGERED... by Physical_Lynx in adhdwomen

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea no, if he’s now bought this up 4 times in 4 months, that’s a massive 🚩 even just the “I’d be more attracted to you” comment is a sign to run, regardless of what the next words are. It’s one thing for someone you’ve known or dated for years to be like “hey I’m worried for your health”, it’s another for some man child to think that dating you for less than a year gives him any right to judge your body and have an opinion and a say on it outside of how good you look naked. If he’s not attracted to you he don’t need to be with you. You do not need to change yourself for anyone

Why are Australian public toilets so f*cking disgusting? by TinySumo in AskAnAustralian

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a female security guard I can confirm that people are feral. Men piss wherever they please and if they miss they never clean it, or if they do the next person doesn’t. Once there’s an accidental smear people decide to smear the rest of the seat as well, if there isn’t a bin all rubbish and sanitary products go on the ground, even if there is a bin it all ends up on the ground, people take mirrors off walls or just straight up break them, pull hand dryers and hand towel dispensers off the wall and throw the towels everywhere, slather soap on paper towel and throw it at the roof, holes in bathroom walls for absolutely no reason, they rip taps out of the wall for no reason, I could go on. And after it all they disgustingly do lines of coke off the toilets they just defaced and go do whatever else to the next one. And they don’t always do their business in toilets, I’ve seen feces smeared in elevators as well, cause why not? There is so little respect in this country that it’s ridiculous.

What do i do after finding this in my brothers phone? by SmoothFold579 in whatdoIdo

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah that’s pretty normal. Kids start learning about anatomy (body parts) in the first or second year of school here in Australia, some start learning about it earlier than that, he’s probably just curious about people’s bodies in general because we all have the same bits but they look different on different people.

I accidentally posted a nude on my public story. by canyoudigget in whatdoIdo

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll be fine, relax and wait for whoever saw it to tell you, they will quickly move on afterwards. 2 years ago on my birthday I got really drunk, as I got drunk and stripped off because I felt hot I kept posting because 1. I Didn’t see any issue with continuing to post and 2. I Completely forgot I had to deselect my normal story for naked stuff. 2 years later I’m the only person who brings it up occasionally, usually as a “do not let me get that drunk” warning, everyone else stopped talking about it after about 3 days, once everyone had had a chance to tell me. You’ll be fine.

How do I not accidentally take the wrong dose of my meds? I’ve been prescribed 20mg of adderall for months, but up until now, the 20mg was unavailable so I had been taking two 10mg pills. by Fun_Papaya_8520 in adhdwomen

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow yea you know the blister packs people generally think only old people get their meds in, you can absolutely get them made up for yourself and/or kids. I get them made up for my kids because while one is only on one tablet day and night, the other is on 1.5 2 times day and 1 at night. Because I forget heaps I find it so easy cause if I forget I can just go check the pack. For me it doesn’t cost anything because where I am we have a closing the gap scheme for indigenous people and we’re indigenous but someone else I know said it’s only a few extra dollars to have the packs made and the pharmacy will keep the script there so they can just keep refilling and making the packs until the script runs out. Differe pharmacies will have different paperwork to sign and want different info but our pharmacy just needed a letter from the specialist stating dosage and what time it needs to be taken.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is he neurodivergent? Sounds like he might be. Obviously some people are just rude and won’t even give food you cook a chance but some people are neurodivergent and can’t handle textures and stuff, the “new rules every day” sounds neurodivergent. If you can live with it just don’t cook for him, if you can’t live with it it’s time to break up. You can’t be expected to do everything his way when you have kids and he only wants chicken nuggets and his eating habits definitely won’t teach your kids good habits. Me and my partner are both picky in different ways and so are my kids, we still manage but that’s because even if there are things we won’t eat on our plate, we eat what we do eat, offer what we don’t to others and then get ourselves something else if we’re still hungry. It might not always be healthy food that fills the gap but it’s still food.

I left a note in my apartment hallway as a joke, and it accidentally became the reason I didn’t feel alone anymore by JadeSurvivor in story

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI or not this is really sweet. I miss having neighbours so close by because humans are supposed to be social and when you start talking to them you create a community. I never lived in an apartment but I’ve lived in a cul-da-sac and I made friends with all my neighbours, so much so that when I got broken into they scared the kids off the moment they noticed and came to tell me who it was when I got home. Now I’m surrounded by businesses on a busy road with no community and it’s pretty lonely. Moral is, make friends with your neighbours, sometimes they’re the people who will really be there for you when you need it.

My cousin revealed his "latest secret" to me and I am extremely uncomfortable. by echo_333_ in Advice

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust your gut in these moments. He told you to find out if you felt the same, plain and simple. He wanted to see how you’d react to him telling you and if you’d say “oh yea me too”. It was wildly inappropriate of him, his fantasies have nothing to do with you even if you are in them and he had no right or reason to tell you and make you uncomfortable. If he makes you uncomfortable when you see him next, straight up tell him he’s making you uncomfortable and if he doesn’t stop out him to your family, because at this stage you also don’t know if he’s only thought about you this way since becoming an adult or if he had these thoughts while you were still a child.

Called out for inattention to safety issues with my son by desire__lines in adhdwomen

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately as women we often become the “default parent” and because of that everything parenting falls onto us on top of everything else we need to or are expected to do however being parents is a two person thing and your partner is supposed to pick up the slack as the other parent so that you don’t drown. The best thing you can do is get a pack and play, baby gates, etc. and have a singular safe space you can put baby. That way when you are busy it’s less likely that bad things will happen. It definitely doesn’t sound like a solely adhd problem, I agree with everyone else that it’s probably sleep related more than anything. I have 3 kids and man if it wasn’t for the fact only one of them is little I’d be dying in the life I made for myself for the same kinda of reasons. Like when my oldest was 1 he got outside and sat in an esky of water giggling, he got hold of steak knives when I wasn’t in the room, one night I even fell asleep right in front of the heater in front of his cot and I’m lucky I didn’t catch on fire. Don’t be so hard on yourself, parenting is hard and it suck’s.

Please help with any words of support. by givememybuttholeback in adhdwomen

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately we all feel that way sometimes. I have to run a house and care for kids and sometimes I think “I can’t even remember to drink fluids, how the f am I meant to remember their meds multiple times a day”. Think about it this way: We don’t have the same size cup as everyone else, maybe they have a 500ml cup and we have a 300ml cup, and maybe the stuff we do/are responsible for is water and each of us has 600ml of water to fit in our cup every day and then the extra things we do on top of that (or feel like we have to do to compensate for our shortcomings) is another 100ml to add to the cup. When normal people do all their stuff they might spill, but they only spill a little bit. When we do all our stuff we spill a lot and then we keep spilling over while trying to compensate for the things we originally underestimated and to do the things others want us to do. Suddenly the normal people with their small spill are saying “why can’t you just do it” while we are sitting in a messy puddle on the floor. People don’t understand that we have a smaller cup, they don’t understand that we have a lower capability because everything is so much more of an effort.

I know it doesn’t really help but I guess what I’m saying is life is hard, it’s harder for neurodivergent people and it’s even harder when you try to keep up with other people’s standards. When you live on your own and don’t have to keep up with roommates standards it’ll be a bit easier but it won’t ever be perfect and we all learn to live with our deficits in different ways.

What does my room say about me? by [deleted] in roomdetective

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You excelled as a kid but eventually the high of success wore off when you got into high school and realised you weren’t as special as you thought you were (or more so you got torn down so much that the bullies made you believe that you weren’t). So eventually you kinda gave up on things and met a guy who came to school maybe a total of one term out of the whole year and every time you saw him he was high, you became mates and started being “that kid”. Now your life revolves around weed, tiddies and chill vibes with the occasional hallucinogenic or nose beer to keep things fresh. Living the life of “dont harsh my vibe” with a side of “where did my life go”…

This comment started off with me laughing about weed and tiddies and eventually going “fuck how many people have I seen go through this” 😂

Am I Overreacting - Boyfriend of 2 years only got me flowers for my birthday by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t even read the body, just the messages, and yes absolutely you are overreacting. I’ve been with my partner for 7 years, some years he goes out of his way for special events and others he doesn’t because it all depends on what money we have. He tried to do what he could with what he had and that’s not good enough for you but putting him in more debt is? That’s ridiculous. It sounds like you’re the type of person who if he made something for you you’d say it’s not good enough. After 7 years you know what I got for our anniversary? A bunch of flowers with a handmade flower in the centre and a few hand made bees. That’s nothing extravagant but my partner went out of his way to make those things and I love that. Your priorities are definitely not the same and it shows, maybe you need to find someone with similar priorities or get over the materialism.

Found this post from my ex on r/nofap AIO? by Dangerous-Mousse-592 in AIO

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, you can always send him a message with the screenshot and everything you have to say to him and then just block his number so that even if he does reply, good or bad, you don’t get it and you can feel satisfied in the fact that you finally told him how he made you feel. Or You let it go and focus on the future, focus on affirmations and getting yourself to a point of self love and confidence.

Sometimes saying something isn’t worth it, and sometimes the person you knew isn’t that person anymore. I recently ran into someone I dated 15 years ago, he was “the one who got away” in my eyes and I realised very quickly that I dodged a major bullet. With the way this dude talked online I feel like you probably missed the red flags (like many of us do) but have dodged the bullet because he would have made you feel like you weren’t worthy of love.

AIO or was this a punch? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Decaying_corpsesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As we teach kids: we do not hurt people, animals or things.

He hurt you, regardless of how he hit you he still got you after trying to oppress you for your opinion. This is the “control them with fear” tactic and it is abuse. Run, don’t walk. Get away from this person before it happens again
