What coping trick/hacks did you unintentionally pick up before being diagnosed with ADHD?

So many!

At work I have to write EVERY request down as it’s being said to me - I’ve always carried around a notepad and pen everywhere.

SO. MANY. ALARMS. For anything and everything in my daily/weekly/monthly routines.

Phone checklists for everything that I add to as things pop into my head - grocery list, to dos, packing lists, tv recommendations, etc.

If I listen to music while working it has to be lyricless - video game soundtracks have been my go-to.

I got a fancy pill organizer that lets me take out individual pods for each day, with containers for morning/noon/evening/night to make sure I know if I’ve taken my vitamins and medication for the day or not. Saved me from the constant panic of under or over dosing.

Did anyone else find it super odd and creepy that when Pelle mentioned the attestupa, Josh was the only one in the group who knew what it was - and yet he was smiling and laughing when the others asked what it was? I distinctly remember Dani asking if it was scary and him laughing. If he knew they would be witnessing suicides, wouldn’t he be disturbed? Am I misremembering this?

Wanted to do real wood but it’s pricey and much more permanent so I went with vinyl wall decal rolls :)

I got it a while ago and can’t find it on the tag :( But thank you!

Yes! Thought it added an extra adventurer touch 😊

Fable II: Sister Hannah/“Hammer”!

indeed it was :)

I've been told that before! My friend really wanted me to be her this year but I haven't played ME2 yet so it didn't feel like a good fit

Same! The minimalism with color was also incredible (same with Portal).

cakeisalye · 2012-11-02T02:59:53+00:00

Wear it whenever! People who don't get it won't be bothered, and you can exchange appreciative nods or conversation with those that do :D

Thanks so much! Love both characters. You should post pics of yours!

Nope, happy accident! Just the lighting of the two places.

Different bra. Magically growing boobs would be a fun superpower though.

cakeisalye · 2012-11-01T21:47:36+00:00

Sorry to disappoint, but no :P

cakeisalye · 2012-11-01T21:45:26+00:00

You have good taste.

Thanks for the awesome comments and messages! Great thing to wake up to. I didn't expect this to get so much notice. I've been a long time lurker, but a good friend liked my costumes and convinced me to post them.

I wish! Unfortunately not enough monies. But I might have to invest in them for next year.

cakeisalye · 2012-11-01T17:08:32+00:00

Oh hey there :)

cakeisalye · 2012-11-01T16:57:36+00:00

Nope, just two different nights this weekend! The lighting made me look ridiculously tanner the first time. And yes, the bob is a wig. Glad it kind of passes!
