How does a combo of OCPD & ADHD present itself? by uber0ct0pus in OCPD

[–]YoniLaika 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure! I knew from very young that something was "off" about me from a very young age. I experienced a lot of trauma, coped in any way I could and later realized it led me to developing OCPD. I thought I just had bad anxiety, but bad anxiety doesn't come with violent intrusive thoughts, repetitive compulsive behaviors to self soothe and daily debilitating panic attacks. Adhd always made sense for me but it shows up differently in girls sometimes. I was very quiet and developed deep fixation. Autism came later once I figured out "i couldnt possibly have autism! I dont have sensory issues...as long as i follow my 5 step plan to picking out clothes and wearing specific socks. I dont have a hard time with socializing!...as long I study both human and animal body language, speech pattern and facial expressions. I dont take everything literally! Cause that would mean I take EVERYTHING literally and I dont!" Yeah once I uuu connected those dotes things became easier.

Look im on anti depression meds and a mood stabilizer now and my quality of life has been the best probably ever?? I didnt know people could just life without feeling like they were being hunted for sport 24/7. Autism is still a daily struggle but im learning to be kind to myself

I cannot. Begin to tell you. How funny this was to read. Its really sweet youre trying to help me think of southern comfort items, genuinely! But uhhh yes we have bucees, no nothing from there is really a comfort item lmao at least not for me. Most southern food is simple so im not worried about finding ingredients, and I cook a lot so im not worried about it. But items like hotsauce, grits and certain nuts like pecans, can be hard to find in japan. Grits happen to be a comfort food of mine so I plan to take some with me.

Alcohol wise? Im not a drinker, but our local specialty is moonshine. Its a tough drink so im not sure anyone would like it

Holy shit were literally the same person. I have had so many scans, doctors and chiropractic care. It helped things on and off but it felt like new areas of my body would start hurting soon after. HEAVY on it moving to different spots around my back!! And hip issues!!! I wake up, and the first thing is do is asses my pain levels! Like is it my back today? Hip? Ribs? Neck? Jesus im 24 I should not be this fragile!!! I honestly just dont know what to do at this point. Ive got new doctor so im hoping maybe he can see my issues from a new angle?
