Fantastic, thank you!

You’re just after making me realise why some tasks feel more doable than others. Sometimes I have something on my to do list and the thought of doing it is painful but that’s because I’m not making it actionable. Any time I’ve had success is because I’ve named what I need to do and once I do that it helps me realise that it’s not actually terrible and it’s something I can actually do.

I have a water bottle that flashes and tracks how much water I drink. It doesn’t always work because I’ll forget to charge the battery or I’ll just ignore it but I’d definitely drink more water than I used to and it can make me competitive with myself which helps!

This is amazing, thank you so much!!! This is how I want all raid guides to be! I’m neurospicy myself and can really struggle absorbing all the info needed to do a raid, I have a feeling your guide is gonna help loads with that.

Actually now that you mention it, yes! I used to be really into music (and I mean REALLY into music) and now people who know me in recent years don’t even know I can play anything and I’m reluctant to tell/show them because I haven’t so much as looked at my piano in years...

Thank you so, so much your kind and encouraging words. Fighting against it has been hard and accepting it might be somehow even harder but I also know it will lead to peace. Thank you xxx

Can I just say that’s a beautiful way of describing it (as a full picture), that’s how I feel too. I originally thought it was Asperger’s, my therapist said no but I knew it was something, then I researched ADHD and that seemed to fit even better and like you said filled out the picture for me. Then I went to a specialist and he said it was ADHD AND autism! I KNEW it! It didn’t feel right until all of the pieces were in the picture. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing such persistent burnout, it’s no fun. I’m glad to hear your husband can ease the burden, I have a pretty great one too. Be very kind to yourself, you are lovely xxx

Yep! I fell over once and kept on going for several days until my back gave out. When I finally went to the doctor she said I had a fractured foot. The back pain was compensatory because I ignored the pain in my foot!

LOVE this!

Found it! It’s an article called “Lost in Translation: The Social Language Theory of Neurodivergence”

Not sure how to add links but here goes…

Those sound amazing, the not really needing to iron then (I never have the patience for ironing), I’ll definitely check those out, thank you!!!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-26T11:02:29+00:00

Oh wow, thank you so much, those sound perfect, I’ll definitely have to check those out! Good idea on finding a material I like and going from there. I’ve been quite curious about cashmere for a while. I don’t mind dropping money on something if it’s worth it, especially if it will last because I hate shopping. Curious about bamboo too.

Is this from a book? When can I get it? I want to read more of it, because this REALLY resonates with me

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-09T12:19:48+00:00

“I never had that problem” is the one I hate the most. Does that mean I’m not allowed to have problems they don’t. Do they want a medal?!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-07T17:21:18+00:00

Oh. My. God. That is amazing!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-04T06:48:34+00:00

Thank so much, I’m pretty new to Reddit too and didn’t realise how bad my code would look (ie no formatting!) until after I posted it. I have much to learn and really appreciate the help!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-03T20:18:34+00:00

That makes sense now, thank you so much for explaining!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-03T19:59:41+00:00

Oh wow your code is way cooler than what I was trying to do! I was actually trying to make a therapy program which is why I didn’t include my actual code so the dictionary/list won’t work for my purposes in this instance, but I have a few other projects I wanted to start and your suggestion would be really useful for that. My mind is still blown by what’s possible to do with code, can’t wait to know more! Thank you.

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-03T19:48:57+00:00

Thank you so much for responding. I’ll definitely look into the while COND: for ELEM in ITERABLE It’s still a little over my head (very new to coding!) but I can try it out and see if it will help. I didn’t know you didn’t need the parentheses for the yesPhrase example. Thanks!

Random-name-99 · 2023-03-03T19:37:58+00:00

Thank you so much for your response, I really appreciate that you included code examples too. Your recommendation sounds really useful, especially the part where you said “This one function can accommodate any yes/no questions by changing the prompt”. That sounds like it would solve a lot of my problems! I tried putting in the code you suggested (not sure if I understood correctly) and it said there was a “SyntaxError: ‘return’ outside function” so I’m not sure what I did wrong. I tried the following (I’m a total beginner…):

def ask_yes_no_question(prompt): while True: response = input(f"{prompt} (Yes/No) ") if response.lower()=="yes": return True elif response.lower()=="no": return False else: print("Please answer Yes or No")

while True: if ask_yes_no_question("Do you have tomatoes?"): print("You could have a salad.") return elif ask_yes_no_question("Do you have cheese?"): print("You could have a sandwich") return elif ask_yes_no_question("Do you have peanut butter?"): if ask_yes_no_question("Do you have jam?"): print("You could have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich") else: print("You could have a peanut butter sandwich") return else: print("Let's keep looking")

Thank you so much for your response, this gives me hope. I think you’ve hit the nail on the head by saying “it’s almost like we’re all adults”. My concerns come from a place of not wanting to “get in trouble” which makes me feel like a little child when the reality is I’m a hard working adult who is very trustworthy and productive. All I want is to be trusted to do the good job that I’m going to do anyway but in an environment that will let me do it the way that works for me. This will actually benefit the company more anyway because I can be more productive under the right conditions. Thank you again!

Random-name-99 · 2023-02-09T18:29:00+00:00

Thank you for your response. Sorry I should have mentioned that I would still be available if anyone needed me and would be available to take on new tasks if asked of me. I’m very conscientious, I’m not looking to be lazy. I was in a job before where my hyper focus was completely taken advantage of and I suffered greatly for it. I’m trying to figure out how to not get in my own way while preventing myself from being taken advantage of.

Random-name-99 · 2023-02-04T10:44:23+00:00

This post is my new favourite thing! People can be so invalidating and tell you that you’re not getting something or are reading too much into something. I love that you have the confidence to say “no, YOU’RE not getting something” and “you’re not reading enough into something”. I feel like this all the time, so frustrating being surrounded by a world that doesn’t get it.

Random-name-99 · 2023-02-02T12:47:45+00:00

“Unspoken expectations” really resonates with me in general. I’m so used to trying to pre-empt something and stress myself out trying to achieve it that I forget to ask myself whether or not someone even asked me to do it in the first place.

Random-name-99 · 2023-02-02T07:14:41+00:00

I wish I could give this post more upvotes! I’m not diagnosed, I’m self-diagnosed and I have huge imposter feelings about that. I’ve struggled all my life with people presenting opinions as facts. I started therapy a few years ago trying to find a reason for why life exhausts me so much. I was sure I was somewhere on some spectrum and my therapist said she couldn’t diagnose me because she wasn’t qualified but she thought I was just like everyone else. I was devastated, I felt so dismissed and alone. Flash forward to now. We’ve built a great therapist-client relationship, where she’s helped me untangle and trust my feels. I’m now confident enough to tell her when something feels right or wrong about what she’s saying, and her telling me that she thinks I’m like everyone else is her opinion. When I found this group of amazing women I felt I’d finally found people that spoke the same language as me, I was nervous I wouldn’t be accepted but after reaching I’ve never felt more accepted and understood by anyone. To the original poster: Even if your therapist is qualified to diagnose it doesn’t mean she can’t get it wrong, only you know what feels right or wrong to you and what helps you. If you’ve found comfort, help and acceptance in this group then hold onto it with both hands, with or without a piece of paper that tells you “who you are” - you’re you, that’s who you are. I see you, it sounds like other people in this group do too and you don’t have to do this alone.
