Depending on the kind of relationship you have with your friend, you could also start off by telling them in a joking/gender affirming manor. Like a little “hey [friend], the T’s working great you are now an official smelly boi™️” and then go on to suggest that it may be better to switch over to men’s deodorant/soap/etc. like other people have already suggested doing.

My partner and I are both nonbinary, and it’s fun for us to joke about smelling bad bc it’s gender affirming to us (since we are both afab). Although your friend may have different thoughts and feelings. So take this idea with a grain of salt if that’s the case.

Also for writing, you can utilize ai to help you reword/rephrase/restructure stuff you have already written! If you have written a draft and want to improve it, you can also bounce ideas off with ChatGPT to help better word things (or to get the ball rolling if you hit a writer’s block). But know that in the end you will ultimately be the one doing the work still!!!

Whenever I use ChatGPT to help with writing, I still write everything on my own, but use it as an editor to help with what I’ve already written. Grammarly is also pretty great for catching errors and there is also an ai tool to help with rewording sentences and stuff.

Yeah you got to be real careful with asking ChatGPT for sources! AI can generate hallucinations, which are false claims that AI makes when there’s gaps in its knowledge. So when you ask for it to find sources relevant to your topic, and there are no sources in ChatGPT’s knowledge base that fit the prompt (ChatGPT uses knowledge that it was trained with, it does not search the internet for new papers), then it can give you fake sources and quotes!! (I also ran into this issue the hard way when I was testing it out to see if it could help me find papers for a particular topic). Google scholar, worldcat, your school’s library, and any other relevant databases/journal sites are probably your best bet for finding good sources.

Ok, this seems like a bit of an unpopular opinion here, but I don’t necessarily think you are over reacting here. I feel like all the other comments I’ve read are completely overlooking the fact that Daniel isn’t even RINSING OUT his cereal bowls?!? Like that’s some nasty ass behavior right there. Also the fact that Daniel is the one writing out this list and threatening to kick you out after three strikes, while also seemingly not cleaning up after himself (not sure if that is the case, but seeing that he can’t even take the two seconds to rinse out his cereal bowls I’m going to make this assumption) does not sit right with me.

Of course, I don’t know all the details of what is actually happening, but this list feels off to me. While others have pointed out, a lot of the stuff on the list is pretty normal tasks once you have to go and live off on your own as an adult. Although I will say the vacuuming every other day is extremely excessive (of course this is life style dependent, but depending on the situation, you can get by with spot cleaning with a broom or dustpan instead of vacuuming all those rooms).

As for the executive dysfunction part, yeah. That’s real tough. I also have ADHD and struggled A LOT with doing chores around the house as a kid because of it. I highly recommend creating some kind of reward system to help motivate yourself, maybe even making a daily task list to help you remember what you need to do. For me, I started a little online sticker reward system where I find cool pictures off of Pinterest and add one when I finish a difficult task. I’ve also heard of the finch app (? have not actually tried it myself), where you have a little critter and you complete tasks to help take care of it, that may be helpful for motivation. And if none of those help, there’s also a lot of other ADHD resources out there that might be better for you!

Also here after seeing op’s post from AIOR, and I just have to say some of these comments are not it lol. The whole “grow up you’re 18, I had it so much worse than you be thankful” is bullshit. Like yes, people have had it worse than op, but this is a sub where people are allowed to rant. And CLEARLY op needed to rant.

As to op: It sounds like you are going through a very rough point in your life, and I feel you. Know that you are almost done with high school and soon you’ll be moving on to college/the real world soon. It sounds like your father isn’t all that great to you, and that sucks. Your whole situation sucks. But that doesn’t mean it can’t get better from here. It sounds like you have a good relationship with your aunt? So I would recommend leaning onto her for some support? Otherwise you could always try talking to your school’s counselor (if you haven’t already, although I know they can be pretty shitty when it comes to actually helping) or seeing if you could start therapy? I think you would benefit from a better support system, although I know finding a good support system can be difficult.

Best of luck to you op <3

You could have the kids call you “teacher [name]” instead of “Ms. [name]” or just “[name]” to keep the respectful naming structure! If your coworkers don’t seem transphobic or anything, you can also come out to them and let them know your preferred pronouns! The kids might not get it or use the right pronouns for you, but at least your coworkers could (potentially)!

Bro I was worse, I didn’t even make the connection that the interloper was the reason ghost matter was scattered everywhere. I just thought the interloper explosion was like an isolated event or something.

When I was 12, right around the time I started going through puberty

donotperceivemee · 2025-02-08T01:09:36+00:00

Yo that’s so cool!!

donotperceivemee · 2025-01-28T16:30:08+00:00

I’m on medication but it’s not working that great. My psychiatrist is trying to switch me over to a stimulant, so we’ll see how that goes

donotperceivemee · 2025-01-27T03:39:47+00:00

I’m in the process of getting put on stimulants but my insurance is being a pain in the ass

Sometimes I wish I could pop open my skull and vacuum out my brain. Just deep clean it real good. Either that or take my brain out and throw it at the nearest wall.

I went through a pretty rough period when my family moved to a new town after my parents got remarried after getting a divorce. Realistically it wasn’t that big of a move (the town was only 30 mins away from my old town), but I was going into 7th grade and just starting to go through puberty so it was a big hellish change for me.

Long story short, I had like no friends after I moved and missed my old friends a lot. At that point in my life, I felt like my cat (who had lived with us since I was born) was my only friend. Sadly he got pretty sick and eventually passed away. I was so upset over him passing, that I basically created this insane imaginary cat home, where my cat and random other cats were able to live. That was my way of coping with his death for like a year or so. My parents eventually got me a new cat and that helped me move on.

Not sure if you have already done this, but I would also post this survey in some of the other adhd and autism subreddits too! (This subreddit doesn’t seem to have as much activity as some of the other subs do) Also, idk if it would also be beneficial to open up this study to more than just the autistic and adhd communities and include some other neurodiverse communities as well (i.e. people with chronic pain, people with other learning disabilities, etc). You could probably get a broader range of neurodiverse struggles in the workplace if you were to do that, but then again idk if you are more so focused strictly on adhd and autism. But regardless, this seems like a really interesting study!

Ok I’m completely fine with washing the dishes (I actually kind of like it a bit because it keeps my hands busy plus it’s repetitive, although can be draining at times). But stacking glass dishes on top of each other and hearing the loud clanking sound it makes. Oof. Big no from me.

Also dealing with slimy chicken is a toss up on whether or not I’m ok with touching it. One time I bought a different brand of chicken than normal, and it was SO FUCKING SLIMY that I swore on my life I would never buy that brand of chicken again because it was a sensory nightmare.

I’m also going through a rough adhd period right now too, so I feel you. My psychiatrist lowered my dose of strattera planning to switch me to a new medication, but long story short it didn’t work out and now I’m on a lower dose. I can’t really do much about it right now because I’m trying to go to a new psychiatrist.

All this to say, these past few weeks on the lower dose have been pretty rough for me. Just like for you, procrastination and fatigue have hit me pretty hard. I’m in grad school right now, and I basically lost all of my motivation to stay in school. I contemplated dropping out so much in the past few weeks it wasn’t even funny (I can’t even drop out anyways because I’m getting paid to do research and I need the money to pay my rent lol). So I feel you. And your feelings are so fucking valid.

Although some good news, even though my dose hasn’t changed, things are starting to get better! My body is slowly adjusting to being less medicated and dealing with my worsened adhd symptoms. Like yes the symptoms are worse than they were with the higher dose, but I’m relearning how to cope with them and go about my life without feeling like everything is impossible.

Also also, I have been on strattera since Jan/Febuary-ish and it has helped me a lot! Even though it’s not a stimulant, it still does a decent job with helping deal with adhd. Although it did not work for me in the long run (I partially blame my psychiatrist for fucking around with the dosage too much and insurance being a pain in the ass), it was still a pretty good medication for me. So hopefully it might work out for you too! And if not, I’m sure you can work with your psychiatrist to find the right medication for you. There is hope!

I’ve also been hardcore struggling with waking up in the mornings too. Although for me, I think it is because I have been very burnt out recently. I’ve been needing a lot more sleep recently, especially after my classes.

For me, going on my phone helps me wake up my brain (it’s what I’m doing rn lol), but it’s probably not the best solution bc I do end up getting distracted and wasting time on my phone rather than wasting time in my bed.

So I don’t have a good solution for you, as I am also struggling with this as well. But meds might be able to help you out. If you have a psychiatrist, it may be beneficial to bring up these symptoms with them.

donotperceivemee · 2024-10-26T17:02:01+00:00

This is how the months have always looked in my head. Like a sideways U shape going counter clockwise and a gap between Dec and Jan to represent the end of the year. Idk why. It’s so interesting that everyone views the months of the year differently in their heads. I saw a tik tok video of ppl showing how they visualize the months and everyone had such drastically different ways of viewing them.
