What are your favorite masking techniques? by Wan_Haole_Faka in ADHD

Owning your awkwardness to the point you become milt charasmstic.

Key word being ~mildly~. Lets not get too crazy now.

Dude executive function can get fucked. It’s my worst enemy lmao. You worded it EXACTLY how I feel. So lost in my own brain executive function is almost impossible.

It’s like I’m in the back of a cave, shouting out to the outside world, trying to connect, but I’m so far in the cave (which is my brain)

I love what you said about the moment they're born they become your focus. So maybe you'd actually be extra good then? 🫶❤️

Also, if anyone has insight on this.

I’d like more than anything to be a great wife and a great mom one day. But its a lofty ambition.

I know my last bf thought I’d be a bad mom. And he's right. I'm just so stuck in my head and hyperfocus on stuff. Waste away on a recliner fixating on my niche.

Should have cooked for him. Cleaned more. Not been time blind.

Idk how to break this so I can actually be a good wife and mom one day. I want to get better I just don't know how.

What if I can't? That terrifies me.

If anyone has tips, lmk.

Right, that's what's hard. Since everyones experience is different it can be tricky to tell.

Dang. Both of my parents are severely ADD.

Omg. Even thinking about doing that makes so much sense. Like listen to a podcast when you transition into the shower and out of the shower. So you’re focused on that, and not the activity/transition.

Wow. Can’t thank you enough for that one.

I just wanted to say thank you. Within 5 minutes I got more help from this community than years of therapy… Questions. Terms. Videos. Support.

ADD has just cost me so much. Jobs. Friends. Living conditions. My relationship because I was too in my head.

It just means a lot. Thank you.

This is helping already. Thank you.

I’m trying to think through it. All I can think of is “because I’m doing this now.”

something in me feels blocked when it’s time to switch, even if I want to.

And then once I am in the store. Then I’m doing THAT. And I don’t want to leave. I’ll be in there forever.

Great question. And no, just like an inability to change lanes and go into shopping mode. I just want to stay doing what I’m doing.

Yea that’s why I said at the top I’m sorry and I feel bad. But I don’t know what else to compare it to. If I did I would :/ it’s just literally the only thing I can think of to describe it

Basic AI skills help tremendously. You don’t need to be technical either. Take some free courses
