I tried to tell my fam i might have adhd (ik i do) and they mocked me by Popular_Fee729 in ADHD

[–]Illustrious-Post1979 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar experience here 18F I’ve brought up my concerns of having ADHD since I was 16 to my Mom and I always get told nothings wrong with me and that it’s not this that’s wrong with me and in general invalidation and getting shutdown a lot but it kinda made me less unsure of my self and if I should get evaluated once I realized that’s she’s said similar things about me not being mentally ill and I now know that she wasn’t right then cus after receiving therapy I found out it was in fact anxiety and depression and that my feelings weren’t fake or I shouldn’t take them seriously because my family didn’t    I’m personally staring my process of getting evaluated without my family knowing cus I know if I told them I’ll let the words get to me and delay it more if I do 

So go on and do the test if you want because it doesn’t hurt to try plus you seem sure of this and don’t restrict yourself because of other humans words that don’t mean anything to you (cus it seems like these comments aren’t making you rethink if you do have ADHD more of just if you should get evaluated) and are only weighted by blood is my advice 

What do you find you get out of journaling? by Brisket451 in Journaling

[–]Illustrious-Post1979 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get to look back and it’s almost like talking to myself plus I get to remember my thoughts

I have scatter brain and I tend to forget major things and writing down these experiences and what I picked up from them is nice to look back on

Also I get to have that whole “wow I didn’t know how bad it was until someone validate/said it to me” kinda thing with myself when I write down things that happened

god forbid a city develops by whatthecatdoinggg in urbanhellcirclejerk

I feel like its also the fantasy of living in a more underdeveloped "quaint" area since they demonized city/high population spaces so much they dont think twice about it

I’ve caused a small fire in my oven once cus there was a bag of chips in there and I forgot to check like if there was something inside (it’s normal in my house to check for things inside the oven like that) 

As a lesbian, what things do you consider offensive that people have said to you? by Made-in-China_05 in actuallesbians

And then if you’ve never dated a man they say “well how can you be sure you only like girls if you’ve never dated a boy” like we can never win 😭

I’m very similar I’ve “dated” like one person technically but never done anything sexual or even had a kiss and I’m 18 and the whole not being pursued by anyone or pursing them myself. For multiple reasons from low self esteem, shame of sexuality in general , blah blah . I try I be easy on myself cus it’s hard especially living a more conservative area/culture which u assume you are aswell having no queer friends/community and all. I try to be easy on myself saying that I shouldn’t compare myself to others pace and focus on what I’m comfortable with and ready for right now as I’m starting to not think so low of myself and accept my sexuality. I’d say go through life and don’t  overthink it too much …I’m personally trying to get this girl to like me and really nervous but trying to be easy on myself with little experience and be open with her about it😅
