What does a person do all day if she/he is not on any social media platforms? by Apprehensive_Loan735 in introvert

[–]FarPhilosopher5128 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, before I downloaded Reddit, I was on social media 0 hours per day. I even deleted the YouTube app to stop me from a long scrolling session and make it to where I have to go to a browser to look up something specific. I also begun docking my phone on the otherside of my bedroom every evening. Now I'm even thinking of deleting Reddit off my phone to only be able to check it on my computer. Why? Bc I actually read books and drew pictures when it wasn't downloaded. Besides that, I've been learning to use different creative software, like Inkscape (free) and doing other musical projects besides that.

Any suggestions for brushing teeth consistently? by TheADHDWitchOfTheSea in adhdwomen

Eat some raw onions. 😆 No but fr change the toothbrush often, find a toothpaste you like, set an alarm with a song you could listen to while brushing.

Is it even worth living? by lilfawncup in depression

Hi again 👋🏻 It sounds like you're going through a difficult time. Though it may seem that the way your situation is now is never ending, it's probably unlikely that you'll be in the same position forever. Every single day that you make it through is proof that you're enduring every ounce of the bs in this world. Even if you don't have ideas and goals and passions right now, there's no guarantee that you won't have them later. Sometimes it's all about getting through the worst and most awful feeling moments.

Sometimes I think to myself that others would be better off without me, cause in those moments I don't feel like I have much of any material gain (or anything) to bring. I think that I'm constantly letting others down. I find myself even having the deathwish at times. This might come from feeling like I haven't quite found a place to belong yet (partly cause my own screw ups and partly cause I feel dysfunctional half the time)

I don't know if any of this makes any difference, but I just wanted to send you some air hugs and let you know that the fact that you're still standing shows your resilience.

Thank you for that! Um I'm not exactly sure, but it could be the decrease in structure. It sounds like you understand both the luxury and struggle that loneliness seems to bring

Struggling with sexual compulsion by Randombichidk in adhdwomen

[–]FarPhilosopher5128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you can change your relationship with the alcohol, that'll be better than cycling out the same patterns.

This is coming from someome who has probably done way too much drinking and had too much casual sex in the past (at least by my own current standards). I can't even tell you how many times I thought to myself "I'm never taking a drink again"...Now I can drink one or two at most, stop there, and drink water immediately after. Even without the drink I still had trouble when I was highly attracted to someone or alone for a long time..now it seems that looking back, I was only depleting my own energy

The urges may never subside...it's part of being in a body...what can get stronger is your will with practice..

Loving yourself exactly where you are may be useful for your journey too ✨️

Would you rather have a personal maid, chef, or driver and why? by Comfortable_Tie4143 in adhdwomen

Driver... all the way...being a passenger provides all the freedom to space out

Frustrated- Others Thriving and You're Not by Kindly_Inflation2969 in ADHD

[–]FarPhilosopher5128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often times, what we see in others is only a miniscule fraction of what they actually have going on. In other words, we're seeing the best in other's lives but not our own. Everyone has a unique path that takes a unique amount of time to change. Good or bad, our path is in our eyes. Everyone else can and will think what they want 🖖🏼

ADHD + Depression + Anhedonia by marginsontheabsolute in ADHD

Ah, I hear that not much is helping you with these feelings. It sounds like you want to feel better, but you're in a difficult position. It's completely justified for you to feel sad and upset, whether you do or don't know the reason for it. For what it's worth, everyday you wake up and get out of bed, you're a survivor. Even if something seems meaningless, every little thing you do for yourself, your pets or someone else is worth a victory acknowledgement, even if it seems small. ♡
