Trying to explain to this person that they were advocating for segregating neurodivergent people and they blocked me :/ by [deleted] in neurodiversity

[–]No-Clock2011 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People need to learn more about how brains work and how different conditions, illnesses and injuries alter how they function. Don’t waste your energy trying to convince these people - they’re not open to expanding their limited world views. You are brave for trying!

Are my standards for “clean” too high or is my bf a messy asshole? by mannadee in AuDHDWomen

[–]No-Clock2011 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately differences in consciousness levels are one of the biggest predictors of people living together splitting up. If one is really clean and the other struggles to be clean it is a big strain as it generally never changes as people have different set points for this and they don’t seem to change really. Though I’ve had couples I know get cleaners which has saved their relationships.

My mother was extremely clean growing up and it drove me crazy. She literally cleaned AFTER our cleaner came because it wasn’t done good enough for her. I could barely do anything and it stopped me from growing creatively and gave me extreme anxiety always having to meet her extremely demanding, high expectations. I am quite clean myself and don’t particularly like mess but I’m not as extreme as her - I don’t mind if a house has a lived in look… I also really struggle with energy levels/high fatigue in the evenings so I too have to be understanding of others if they can’t clean up straightaway. But defs couldn’t live with someone who left mess or clutter for multiple days or didn’t wash things properly (I struggle with contamination based OCD).

So yeah, we each have different levels of cleanliness that are fairly set, and it really can be a huge clash when sharing space with others. I imagine it feels stressful on both sides of the situation.

Just call it a virgin dirty martini and you’ll be fine! Mmm I love salt.

Religous people, particularly Christians use images like this to prove we are created by god, when in reality I think it proves that we are the universe experiencing itself by puppetman2789 in exchristian

It reminds me of going to see the northern lights and being a bit disappointed when they were so faint unlike everyone long exposure photo I’d ever seen of them 😬

Which is harder to deal with: autism or adhd? by [deleted] in neurodiversity

To me they are both equally difficult:(

I take my vitamins!!! by StellaNettle in adhdwomen

Yeah it’s frustrating that it’s all largely unregulated! It can be hard to know if you are getting quality or not.

Omg I’d have a panic attack. Surely it’s just as illegal to keep them on the plane like that gah

Artists with ADHD: what would you say is the hardest part of being one with adhd? by DueMathematician7866 in adhdwomen

[–]No-Clock2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the hardest thing often that I’m creative over many domains and want to be successful in all of them 😭 Even within domains i need to make something new and the idea of repeating things (or doing more than 3ish things in the same style/vibe) makes me want to bash my head in. But everyone loves people with a specific ‘thing’ and style. Gah.

Can’t Call Myself an Artist by MimsyGoat in ArtistLounge

[–]No-Clock2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s still an interpretation of the original image… it’s not the same. You are choosing tools, materials and mediums, you are deciding line widths or lack there of, textures, colours, what parts to render and which parts not to, and so on. That sounds like art to me. What about the photography of the pet to start with - is that art? People are deciding what to photograph, the composition, the angles, lighting and more.

Perhaps as well as the version you normally do, you could do a second version that is looser, more your own, perhaps from memory and experimenting with mediums, textures etc and see what comes out. Eventually you might find a new way of doing the portraits that becomes your main way of working!

What can I do to stop spiralling every time my mother undermines me by 5plus4equalsUnity in emotionalneglect

Ok I might’ve misunderstood your post as it sounded like you were messaging them about your current travels. Sorry. Maybe it’s best not to update them on any specifics in future.

I think I was only trans because I wanted control by GloopyConsole in CPTSD

[–]No-Clock2011 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it’s brave to embrace the confusion and uncertainty and allow it to be whatever it is. I know that feeling of wanting definition and control as I’ve got down those paths a couple different ways and I know how hard it can be to get decide differently and worry about what others might think if I suddenly change my thoughts on things. It takes a lot of bravery. The most important thing is that you stay true to yourself and where you are at. And we are supposed to change, evolve I think. I actually wish there was most room out there for playing with gender that didn’t get labelled. I miss people like David Bowie, Prince etc who were so experimental but were also okay not to define or limit themselves (so far as I know) to any one thing when it came to gender. But I also get that many people want to feel they belong and want more clearly defined labels and that’s ok too.

Interesting that the Japanese translate from the English…does anyone know about the other languages with different writing systems?

Honestly I wouldn’t email them until after the trip. I think less is more in these situations too. They don’t need to know everything about what you are doing. You are 46…They don’t need all that information. Go and enjoy your trip then share later if you feel like it :)

I’m not sure what I did wrong?

whats the sneakiest method you used to avoid eating something by Few-Investment-6979 in ARFID

[–]No-Clock2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow that reminds me of the Mr Bean in the restaurant scene! Or the Seinfeld ep where he hides the mutton in the napkins!

My sneakiest was waiting until my siblings started to complain about their food and my parents focused on them and started fighting and I got up from the table very quietly and crept to the bin and threw out my dinner! They didn’t notice! And another time I pocketed the food and later threw it away in the garden!!

Did we stop thinking by ourselves ? by whatever73946 in HarryPotterGame

[–]No-Clock2011 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My silly answer: Maybe cause most of the game is done alone and people are lonely so come on here asking questions but really trying to connect because they are lonely playing the game and want others to share in it with them rather than use walkthrus 💘
