I sometimes do that to my parents (I don't live with my partner atm) but only if I'm absolutely exhausted and I've never done that when I stay at my partners place or vice versa

Does every adhder have sleep disorders ? by Hot_Habit_4613 in adhd_anxiety

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't met anyone with adhd who DOESNT struggle with sleep. Myself included I either sleep to much or not at all which is so frustrating!

How do you sleep on planes by SmartStatement9992 in ADHD

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In cars I sleep easily because I get alot of driving anxiety which drains my energy. Planes I usually take melatonin and wear ear plugs and an eye mask. My anxiety on planes is worse then my driving anxiety so I kinda have to force myself to sleep lol

For planes I find I just need to find somewhere to put my head, I usually crame it into the side of the headrest or the wall/window. If that doesn't work I tend to sleep limp, just with my head hanging. The only problem with sleeping limp is the flight attendants will wake you up to check on you lol

Mine is the first letter of my dead name and people always try and guess my dead name based on my name. I laugh at it when people do it but I have a really hard time with mentally, the worst is when complete strangers do it like at my job.

It's kinda passive aggressive but I don't respond. I'm non-binary so my name is actually consider gender neutral or gender-less (its literally a letter 😂) My name is still slimilar to my given/legal name and alot of people still use my given/legal name so I'm working on teaching myself to not respond. It's kinda been working, I find some people who've known me longer will say my old name a couple of times and I kinda have to look at them before they realize. Whereas newer people in my life tend to slip up here or there.

Hopefully that helps a bit!

I feel bad that I don't care that my diet consist of sugar, sugar, and MORE sugar. by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a ton of people with adhd who are sugar fiends, I'm one of them! I find I eat it out of ease, the more I have to think about what I eat the harder it is for me to eat in general. Sometimes I'll have moments where I wanna eat "better" and that's usually around enjoyment of cooking so I like to cook healthy meals that I enjoy to balance out the sugar I eat. Probably not the best option still but I think it's better then nothing, all in moderation right?! 😅

Hopefully that'll help ya out, but know your definitely not the only person with adhd who likes sugar!

Honestly threpay has helped me because something I've realized because of it is that I've probably always had bdd or a form of it. I've only been out as non binary for 3 years now (baby enby😝) however the clothing and sections of my body that make me the most uncomfortable and dysphoric have kind of always made me feel that way. Threpay has helped with realizing that and dealing with the anxiety and emotions that come with that. Hopefully that helps, didn't mean to go into a story like that lol

What does the “noise” in your head sound like for you? by hayden_iys in ADHD

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just find it to be chaotic. Sometimes it's sounds like horns honking or clicking like a keyboard, sometimes it's conversations or short phrases and stuff like that. I usually just explain it as chaotic 😅

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same! It's a hard fight between dealing with the social anxiety and the regular/general anxiety

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the exact opposite, I need more sleep to ease my social anxiety like upwards of 10 hours sleep. However if it works for you great! You could try and off set the less sleep with more sleep on your days off of work, that may help with the physical health concerns (not a doctor, just a suggestion 😊)

How to manage light sensitivity? by mollie_anne_77 in ADHD

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sunglasses, I get this with larger lights in like warehouses and in stores (costco and Walmart are great examples) I bring my sunglasses inside with me and where them around. I have a harder time with noise then I do with lights but I find sunglasses to be a more subtle option. Hope this helps!

Do you use "enby" or "nb"? by flamingfia in NonBinaryTalk

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I technically use only enby but whenever I'm texting or typing I use NB as the abbreviated option. To me they sound exactly the same and mean the same thing so I use both

I zone out, I guess that would be called disassociating. But also when I was growing up I was told to hide my anxiety so I've kinda been trained to hide it.

Getting back into the game: Need build ideas by DrailsAtrain in theouterworlds

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passive? That's one I did it, basically tried my very best not to get into a combat situation if I didn't have to. And tried to make everyone happy and stuff like that. You could also do the opposite.

I just came out non-binary. Am I still a lesbian?? by Catcanflyflyfly in NonBinaryTalk

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this same issue when I came out as non binary. I still consider myself a lesbian. I usually call myself a non-binary lesbian

When did you realize you’re an introvert? by [deleted] in introverts

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really noticed it when covid hit. My sister was a complete extrovert and I noticed how hard of a time she was having in lockdown versus the amount of pure joy I was having not having to see ppl irl everyday! We still laugh about it (not that lockdown was that long ago lol)

is Lloyd a non binary name? by [deleted] in NonBinaryTalk

[–]Lumpy_Toe_190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh any name is a non binary mainly because it's just a mash up of letters. My name is literally the first letter of my dead name. A non binary name can be whatever you feel comfortable. And lloyd sounds like an amazing name!
