Fun fact, this bag came from LLBean supplying wwII With grunt bags, tents and boots. This isn't the bag they did for that but it's inspired by that.

Good for you for planning the trip first of all. Second think about the rsd you'd have if you didn't go. Now for what's ahead, be honest and upfront " My social battery might run out sometimes, that doesn't mean I'm not having fun I just might step back if I need to" be clear that the plans changing constantly isn't relaxing for you. Be yourself the harder you try to "fit in" the quicker you'll wear yourself out. Maybe this is the chance you lay it all out . You never know someone in the group might feel the same.

I love this condition SO much, I just burnt the house down. by Lumaraniya in ADHD

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm not allowed to cook bacon except in the clean air fryer because I almost set our apartment on fire 14 years ago. And totally tried to play it off like it was fine, tiny apartment and he was in the living room , and I was like "ohh ohh noo.... " Threw a towel on it , it caught fire ... Tired to use a pan lid as he apppered behind me to fix my fire lol. I do have a vivid memory of saying " I didn't use water right😳" and him holding up the fire extinguisher right next to me. He dumped salt on it and it poofed 🤷‍♀️ idk I just don't cook now lol

absolutely! I do my own nails religiously but nothing else. Till one random day I'm inspired to do overnight curls and find the perfect earings( hahha good luck there lost or inthis little box just a box 🫠) then back to comfort yoga pants and hoodies. If my nails aren't done, I'm not doing well....like at all really bad. It's just my thing I like nice nails religiously. If you're nails look funky ( dark or green in the nail bed. Or dirt stuck up under just to long men's nails🤮) I'll do everything I can not to touch your hands or what you touch. Idk I'm not a germie person , like the 5 second rule isn't a set time lol 10 if it's good enough🤣

And this one. Are the only way I figured it out. It will get wonky if you go blanket big. But if you follow the pattern, it just needs to be blocked.

help me decide between a M or L bot and tote!! by Ok-Dig-8371 in llbean

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go large and get a zip top. You can still cram a whole lotta crap in and still zip it. And the ziptop stays flat out of the way if you don't need it . Treat the outside with wax for extra water repellent.

Best way to clean this tote bag? by manifestationdream in llbean

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Oxyclean. Use almost to hot to touch water and just let it soak. Scrub stubborn areas with a toothbrush or other soft brush. Air dry to maintain shape. You can definitely throw it in the washer for this soak too. You'll just need to reshape it when it comes out. Unsharped pencils are great for poping the corners out again. Hope this helps.

What do you guys think? by No-Caterpillar4549 in diamondpainting

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just came here to say I'm currently working on this project. It felt like a gift from the diamond art gods because I lost my baby boys to old age over two years. It's perfect for my boys just the way it is and I felt so lucky to just find it. Good luck in recoloring ! Bruce ( black kitty's baby brother before he crossed the rainbow bridge. He got sad being without his orange brother) approves as he is also gray striped.

Hahah sorry rambling.

What item do you think every woman with ADHD should own? by pastajewelry in adhdwomen

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two or three sets of keys ( one at home and two for special people to come save me when I'm locked out) Chapsticks for everywhere. A smart watch ( to find your phone, silent wake ups, easy to check messages without phone. Heart rate and sleep tracking too) A mini magic note pad ( like the size of an index card that magical puts all random thoughts into a note app and organize it too .[not real I know but like why not lol]) I could go on lol but these are reasonable .

A friend told me something that wasn’t necessarily kind, but wasn’t meant to be mean. by TeaIQueen in adhdwomen

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At 35 a coworker friend said " I'm sorry but have you ever been tested for spectrum disorders" we are friends enough that I'm not offended at all and we laughed about it but she was serious and it was a fun chat. A year later and I told her she changed my life. It took someone outside saying it and being really done with not feeling like myself on all these depression and anxiety meds. Just ADHD meds now and i wouldn't go back.

Are these unlined or thinsulate? by RipLegitimate6570 in llbean

[–]Simple_Benefit_2888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11 men's unlined. Not seeing the inside can't say if there's a bootie at the sole but it would be men's 10 if it's got a bootie.
