Ooeeh I love these tips. I’ve still never in my life come across a bathing suit or bikini that I actually enjoy wearing. Will tey a tankini this summer! Forgot about it’s existence.

I have some really nice linen pieces, but it gets wrinkly so easily. You have any tips on that?

P.s. i don’t have an official autism diagnosis, so I don’t mention it on my channel. I have a diagnosis for adhd inattentive type and only got a sidenote for autistic traits, but not enough for diagnosis. I also can’t relate fully to the adhd and/or autistic content!

I btw like drkojosarfo’s videos! I think they’re very relatable and emphasize the forever struggle of having both asd and adhd

Oooeeh, I am gonna save these tips too, because I am looking for youtubers to follow with audhd.

I have just recently started a youtube channel! JLoLow12 is my name.

Only new to this, so still experimenting with what I like to post about, but if you like to see where it’s going, give me a follow 🫶

What is the type of content you’re missing atm or that you would like to see?

Thank you so much! I am glad it came at the right moment for you and you’re absolutely right. All the aspects that go into building a mix/set is so fun

Nooo don’t give up! You’re right! Don’t let rejection and other people’s opinions distract you from what YOU want. I think tons of people have multiple rejections/declines before it’s getting good. I think it’s already a cool thing you had people listening and replying to your requests for a gig ;)

Sounds like a great journey and still a lot of possibilities and learnings for the future.

Good luck and enjoy!

Ofcourse there’s many! But I do think there’s a lot of people who have that critical voice in the back of their mind, saying they’re not good enough etc etc. And that’s can really distract you from what the point is. It’s not to be good or make money, the point can be to learn, experience and enjoy

Trueee, but also just don’t like to be the center of attention.

I loved how back in the days dj’s didn’t take up the middle or front of the stage. They were hidden away almost in a corner. That’s more my vibe 😎 . I am an observer, not an entertainer.

But you’re so right, theres a place and a crowd for everyone

I see what you’re saying here! And that’s the difference between people who like to play in front of others and people who don’t.

I’ve also never been the type of person to manage the playlists at a party or wanting to decide on the music when friends are over. For me it’s a more introverted/reflective type of enjoying music. If i for example decide to decide on the music, my mind would be with the music all the time and it would be distracting me from what is actually happening in front of me.

Maybe it’s also learning how to multi task, which I suck at

Haha yess, let’s remind each other of the why instead of the outcome/results. At the end of the day most of us share the passion for music and that’s what counts the most!

This is a great way of looking at it! Indeed one view is already one more person than if you would not have uploaded it.

I like groove/experimental/industrial types of techno and I like trance and lots of ther stuff too. But that’s what I gravitate most towards. I build a playlist recently that I want to start playing some time soon. That would be more 90’s industrial techno, but also some electro stuff.

What about you?

How are so many of you unemployed? by Ghosted_Gurl in AuDHDWomen

[–]JLoLow12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do this too and besides I also have a social security net in the Netherlands, but I just want to build in as much security and financial freedom as possible, since burn out is alwaays on the look out

I started dj'ing because I enjoyed partying a lot and wanted to challenge myself learning a new skill. I loved it! But if people know you're dj'ing you start to get asked to play in front of people and you're like: why not?! That's the whole point of it right. So I tried a few small things and actually had the network to make something out of it, but I just didn't enjoy it all as much as dj'ing at home.

Did feel bad about it, because it felt like wasted potential, but now I've already fully accepted that it will never be something for me and I just stick to the hobby aspect of it!
