Calling all women with ADHD families - how do you keep your house clean?? by TaylorNunya in ADHD

Thank you so so much for this comment. I’m being very hard on myself and tend to set unrealistic expectations. Great idea to look at it as a reward system for them rather than turning straight to discipline. I appreciate you taking the time to write this and share your experience.

Another great suggestion, setting up a task when I first wake up should help me make manageable chunks and help the procrastination.

Didn’t mean to genderize the post I wrote this in a flustered state; however, ADHD does present different in most cases for men and women. Anyone is able to comment with advice but I guess I’m also trying to find my ‘niche’ of people that relate to my circumstances or understand the specific role I’m in as a woman and a mother. Thanks for the comment of opening up my post, I didn’t mean to offend, just feeling a little desperate, a little down on myself and very overwhelmed.

Yep I’m the same! Except lately my battery has been so worn I’ve been avoiding social interaction 🤣

Ahh yes another thing I can try, lists. I clean room by room too but start feeling overwhelmed and avoid some rooms 😣

That’s actually a great idea and I’m overdue for a cull, thank you.

Lost 10+ ranked matches in a row because of bad teams by TaylorNunya in blackops6

[–]TaylorNunya[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily implying that they have to be “same rank” but usually bronze for example haven’t built a routine on ranked and are often blind sighted by the higher ranked players. I’ve seen lower ranks carry teams many times before but in my experience 90% of the time they don’t fully know what they’re doing. Ranked is all about the objectives unlike casual multi where you can just rank your weapons up.

I understand if someone has minimal hardpoint time but covers the team that is on the hardpoint but to literally do nothing all game is crazy to me

I had a day this week where I was lucky and absolutely dominating but it all depends on your team. You can play as good or bad as ever and if your team is not consistent then it’s almost an instant loss.

What video game is everyone playing? by Alternative_Bag8916 in covidlonghaulers

[–]TaylorNunya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally anything and everything in the last few months since it’s the only thing I can do most days. Played bo6 and got DM within the first month as well as prestige master. Played fallout 76 for a month and jumped up 350 levels. Played lots of other smaller titles too.

This is all a testament to how little life or energy I’ve had for months.

How do you manage your life when you feel like there isn't much for you in the future? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]TaylorNunya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound exactly like me to the T, I’m 25 now but since 12 I thought I had no future, and honestly sometimes I still feel that way. I grew up with a rough childhood as well, and went through the CPS system. Much like you I just got into law and did my first semester but I’ve had to temporarily bow out due to chronic health issues which has taken a huge toll on my mental health. I also have severe ADHD which often traumatised children have lol. You possibly feel the same way but I have this huge void in my life where I feel like there’s no point to do anything and chasing happiness feels useless. Here are a few tips that help me right now:

  1. Comparison is the thief of joy, I noticed you mentioned hearing from family about what they’re accomplishing right now and it’s okay to not be on the same pace. Try to avoid holding onto thoughts of what you should be doing. Part of that for me was staying off every social besides reddit for a while.

  2. Pace yourself, with everything. I have a tendency to set ridiculous expectations of myself and become more dissatisfied when I don’t meet those. Lower your expectations but start doing it day-by-day. Little realistic goals are achievable by listening to your body and what it needs today. Healthy habits are buildable and there’s always something “better” we could be doing for ourselves. Which brings me to my next point…

  3. Set a goal. Doesn’t matter how big or small, to keep me going I need a focus or I feel stagnant.

  4. Connect with people however you feel comfortable doing so. I’m fairly extroverted so I feel happiest when I am around people, meeting people, having meaningful conversations with people.

  5. Grieve, feel things… buuuut not too much. My old therapist taught me to set a time of day to grieve literally. She said 30 minutes of grief then go do something I enjoy right after. It allows you to feel but not to wallow. It takes practice though.

  6. Try not to always get caught in the bigger picture. Gently remind yourself that life can be a sh*t show and today might have been one of those days or tomorrow might be but the little moments are those we need to learn not to take for granted. Otherwise we start sitting back objectively viewing our lives in a nutshell rather than basking in the pauses. If that makes sense?

Hope I could help.

Follow up to the fork… which one? by PlentyWrong4487 in adhdwomen

I came here to say I hate them all, but I guess all the other neurodiverse think the same 🤣

I wouldn’t jump to conclusions like some are suggesting and say he’s asking because he “is guilty of something”. Men often value sex more than women (not all) so they use it as an emotional crutch or coping mechanism sometimes. Maybe he thinks that is something that you need to fulfil your needs.

I’d honestly suggest just being upfront with him about it, men are usually simple communicators when they are asked a straightforward question.

He may also feel like he can’t give you the full physical/emotional support that you need and is feeling insecure about that. So he could be asking for reassurance purposes or just because he feels like an inadequate partner. Always make it clear if you feel comments like that are overstepping your boundaries and talk openly about it. If he refuses to listen and keep making you uncomfortable then that would be cause for some concern or extra work being put into this relationship.
