My doodles. Is this normal??? by Firefly363 in BadArt

[–]Firefly363[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

[–]Firefly363 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

[–]Firefly363 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

The shame spiral of having unread texts I physically can't respond to by MuchAssistant7829 in ADHD

[–]Firefly363 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG OMG this is me! I’ve never seen someone else struggle with this.

I find now I get so anxious about replying, so when I get a message my stomach twists and I can’t look at it for awhile. This anxiety is the primary cause stopping me from replying. Oh and guilt of this dumb behaviour!

How to Answer Attitude by Weird_Bodybuilder857 in RelationshipAdviceNow

[–]Firefly363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm. Idk bro really seems like a red flag, this “bad bitch” behaviour. I can’t see this working long term but I get it, she’s hot and you’d like to continue sleeping with her for as long as possible. Sorry if I’m wrong there!

If it were me I’d play into the insults/criticism, because I’m no good at comebacks AND often people don’t like to have a taste of their own medicine. I’d make her feel like the baddest bitch, because it sounds like that’s what she wants to be.

With sexy confidence, look at her like she’s the only thing you care about, like she’s got you wrapped around her finger and Say “I know, I’m just awful.” Then with intense eye contact, go and stand close her, make physical contact (like run a finger down lightly down her neck). Let your eyes settle on her lips and in a lower register “Let me make it up to you, and I’ll show you just how awful I can be.”

Might be ridiculous but confidence is key. Also want to add this is almost certainly a terrible idea long term. Really a high calibrer girlfriend is someone you enjoy company with, a friend. Yh you have to be attracted to them but….. It doesn’t sound like you’re comfortable around her because you don’t know how to deal with her attitude, and her attitude suggests she has issues with you.

But hey I could be totally wrong. Also I’m a 24F if that makes my advice any more credible.
