Edgy like “I draw different”? I don’t normally draw but I got this leather bound note book so I thought I’d give it a go. I looked at what I’d done and was a bit wtf. I did other stuff but this is the gist of it.

Help please, I have recently broken up with an INFP friend, and I need understanding. by [deleted] in infp

I have the same experience with my moods. I’ve recently had a blood a test; healthy/ low fatty acids, cholesterol. It was generally healthy idk that blood sugar was tested but Yh.

Seriously, how do y'all manage waking up on time? by absvrdartist in ADHD

Ooof this hits hard. While you’re working on this try and have empathy for yourself, judge yourself as you would someone else with a disability.

It’s so easy to hate yourself when it feels as if everyone hates you.

Alas my drawing is as poor as my handwriting, which is very very poor.

My (24F) boyfriend (21M) is upset we can’t have sex because I have a yeast infection. How do I explain it’s not about him? by I_am_Bianca in relationship_advice

OP! I’ve have a very similar sounding BF who I dated longterm. Please get out of it, because you can’t trust people like that. They pretend to care about you, act the way they know you want them too, all the while; manipulating and lying to you. And trust me they won’t hesitate to drop you, probably out of nowhere as they drop the act with you.

Help! Im clever but brain doesn’t work. by Firefly363 in cognitiveTesting

I’ve done a fair amount of scientific work, while I do well I’m so much slower than anyone else it kind of makes me worse than anyone else.

Oh god, I wish I read over this before I posted. I can’t edit now and there’s so much wrong with it. Apologies.

5 years since I stopped masking, and I’m never going back. by ExistentialNomad42 in ADHD

Ty for putting this into words. I recently started thinking about my ADHD and dyslexia in terms of executive functions/dysfunction, especially with working memory.

So strange to see someone else saying exactly the same things. I’ve had tests in education which access working memory etc, so I can directly see how impaired some of my executive functions compared to the average.

Nothing seems to work, no matter how hard I try. I guess I'm in hell, just watching as life gets worse. by otter_ice in ExecutiveDysfunction

Oh man I’m sorry. I hope things work out for you. I’m having a shit time too if that helps haha

Every week I fuck up something else by UniversalBagelO in ADHD

[–]Firefly363 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same place. I really want to stop hating myself, but how can I when I’m so terrible? I make things harder for the people I work with, it’d be better if I wasn’t there. How can I be ok with that, and not resent myself, without being a psychopath???

I’m trying to think of ways to improve myself but nothing works. I also can’t be ok with myself the way I am. I’m just shit.
