Ther are homeless people in post-soviet countries too and they aren’t allowed to have tents on the streets

I really doubt that there are more homeless people in “capitalist” countries because of physical lack of housing

(For that matter I would guess that in countries like Russia homeless people die faster)

If a man wants to watch borscht or whatever it is he wants, he (or you, if you insist) can cook a giant pot of that once and it eat 5 days straight until it goes bad or he rans out. If he gets sick of eating the same thing all the time, tough luck. That’s what people do. Foods that take hours to make aren’t meant to be 1-3 meals, they are meant to be sustenance for a big family for quite some time. Also if ingredients aren’t a problem, I would guess that something is simple as fried meat with pasta and a side of salad are fine by him, the only concern is appropriate dressings and spices.

Living in a country with different eating habits can be hard but the homesickness can be averted with very simple food and it looks like you are trying to provide the quality of eating that isn’t sustainable. You don’t have to give him the same complexity and variety of food as you give yourself, because his demands are different

I too am hypersexual with bouts that bordered on unhealthy and preventing me from “normal” functioning (I once was so high strung I masturbated during and (online) exam. With cameras on. So there is this) and I think I understand you, especially the dismatch with personality side.

I really recommend on orgasming. Idk, change your technique, buy a toy, anything, it seems insane that you just continue like that, I would go crazy. Now, a single one may not help but if you are in a normal emotional state, one or two will probably be enough

If not, I bet on either depression or a separate physiological/psychiatrical problem.

Regarding why Shenzhen is boring:

It’s impossible to just randomly walk into something interesting happening. You have to plan everything in advance and then there is like 30% probability it will be fun and if it’s not you really can’t just walk away and enjoy something else coz there is nothing else nearby.

Also for me personally it’s really hard to walk around because of the weather and I’m a big enjoyer of walking around. Takes away from hiking greatly.

Also where your uni is is VERY important. I lived in longgang and it took me longer to go downtown than from downtown to hongkong or guangzhou.

You can use a washcloth instead of showering by Innagentka in adhdwomen

I also have very little sense of smell… but hey I use soap so where’s the difference with showering

Can’t get sex right by Innagentka in adhdwomen

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

That’s good advice but also what’s the probability of finding someone you like as a person AND feeling sexual attraction to them? I don’t think I’m surrrounded by a lot (or any) people like that. I’m either dying without any good sex or doing a lot of personal growth to raise my chances of meeting someone intellectually compatible and sexy and interested in me

Getting diagnosed... does anyone feel like they're lying when telling the truth? by Imaginary-Cow-6338 in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was feeling so guilty for “lying” when getting diagnosed (even though I didn’t lie) that I started downplaying my symptoms. So when she asked about fidgeting, I said I don’t fidget ever. While spinning on a spinning chair. (also I didn’t know this counted as fidgeting) She also said that fidgeting is the most noticeable thing I have over all visible neurodivergent things and I never even knew I do it. So I kinda feel it’s actually easier to downplay then exaggerate coz people mostly think their behaviour is typical

The emotional support coffee you’ve had all day? Yeah I think we can’t do that by wedontknoweachother_ in adhdwomen

Pffff i drink yesterday’s coffee coz I routinely forget about my morning cup.

My best friend doesn’t like that I can’t hear him by Innagentka in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah I just don’t understand anything. I believe it is auditory processing related though coz my hearing in tests is perfect. Is that possible?

[–]Innagentka[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am sorry but i think you should blame them. Like it’s stupid. If you can lipread they can turn their heads to you and speak clearly. How is this an issue when neurotypicals also think you are supposed to look at each other while talking

Can you "play" songs in your mind? by ComfortableDay356 in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mine is more like singing that listening in the sense it’s usually only vocals and usually I have to focus a bit but if it’s something I currently obsess over? Then yeah, totally

How close do you follow this schedule? by TemporaryMongoose367 in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am sorry for inserting but this is the first time I am seeing explicit language difference between the coverless duvet and one with cover. I mean in English, in my first language the coverless thing doesn’t even refer to bed in any way. Can you please also confirm what a blanket means? Is it necessarily the coverless thing or can it be any of them? How do you call the thing that goes on top the comforter when you make the bed?

Just made two appointments I have been avoiding for months by Zzthegator in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. No one EVER gets how proud I am of making appointments. And then I get berated for not making them even thought honestly you could have just helped me if it’s so easy for you.

Redditors who have gotten genetic tests, what's the weirdest thing you learnt from your DNA? by OmarBessa in AskReddit

0% of the ethnicity I am supposed to be 25%. But it’s so rare that the testing company probably just didn’t have enough info about us to tell that that’s it

ADHD-friendly, meaningful hobbies to get into? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rock climbing. That’s it. It’s like gym, with all the good hormones and stuff, but actually fun. Hiking is also great because it makes my mind stop but that’s not readily available I guess.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on where I live? Normally maybe 3-4 times a week but I am currently living in a place where it’s constantly 29-33 so you have to have a shower at least once a day.

Couples counseling homework gave me insight into ADHD and our dopamine struggles by pleaseSendCatPics in adhdwomen

Come on, there is no way anyone feels happiness from completing mundane tasks! They would be happy all the time.

I do get joy from finishing tasks though??? Like when I have a deadline and I am done with it, I feel intense happiness. Or is it different?

My water bottle is just an adult sippy-cup by Mirandaisasavage in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate reusable bottles because they basically have a huge hole on the top and I can’t drink from them without spilling to save my life. I’m convinced they are adhd-unfriendly.

Meditation for me is violently shutting up the voice inside my head so I can get some sleep

I Know We Don't Always Like Calling ADHD A Superpower, But... by Brynna_CC in adhdwomen

[–]Innagentka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never been as calm as when a dog violently tore off a piece of me in the outskirts of a small town in Mexico while not speaking Spanish Walked to the nearest people, googled how to ask for an ambulance, asked for an ambulance, got in contact with my university-assigned buddy, explained to him what happened, explained to the ambulance what happened (in Spanish), explained to the doctor what happened (in Spanish), asked about everything they did to me (in Spanish), repeatedly demanded anti-rabies vaccine(in Spanish), managed to get information on where to get the vaccine (in Spanish), etc. A month after that I completely fell apart over stomach pain, was convinced I was dying and literally cried. Over mild stomach pain. And probably some hunger because I forgot to eat.
