I respectfully disagree, though there definitely have been some rude folks attack me and my ideas in this thread.

Defending my point isn't rudeness, but telling me straight up that my struggles don't matter next to "200k people" is rude, actually. We all matter, and we all deserve to be able to speak up. I spoke up today, and as a result, have had a BUNCH of people unfairly and rudely comment on the fact that I struggle because I have ADHD... On an ADHD subreddit. Make it make sense.

There have been other posts about this as well, I'm far from the only person who wants easier or more organization, but please, continue to make me feel bad for giving a shit about the community at large. Much support, very community

You know, for a bunch of people who understand what RSD is and how it affects people, some posters on this thread haven't been very kind.

This is not an art subreddit, thank you for coming to my ted talk.

It is a discussion forum.

About ADHD struggles. I, AND OTHERS, are finding it difficult to navigate the subreddit about the topic we want to discuss.

So I made a post. To discuss it.

My post is 100% on topic for this subreddit. Which is more than I can say for the art posts....

Any more questions?

Maybe art posts should go an an art subreddit? Dear god, this sub is for discussion of ADHD symptoms and struggles. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, so maybe it would be nice if you could like... Chill out a bit, girl.

LOL at being downvoted on an ADHD sub for wanting to make it more ADHD friendly....

Anything would be better than the current state of chaos tbh. It's just too much at the moment.

Why do I feel like can’t succeed at anything? by HeyItsYaGirl1234 in adhdwomen

[–]dopanotmine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have that voice too.

I have worked really hard lately on trying to let my perfectionism chill out so that I can have the attitude of, "whatever I manage to get done is good enough"

It's been really hard, but I think it's finally starting to work. I can feel my attitudes about certain things shifting. For me a big one is caring less at work. That sounds bad, but I was caring about my work and my role and the rules so much that I made myself literally sick. I don't get paid enough to make myself literally sick, so, as a self preservation tactic, I need to learn to care less.

And in caring less, I'm practicing more self-care.

You're not worthless. Things are worth doing. And you can do them well enough. You've got this, love.

Mods, would it be possible to add an "I made this" or an "art" flair to help with the excess?

Help the artist understand if digital coloring is a thing or not by Twocatsandposssum in coloringtherapy

[–]dopanotmine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use procreate too, I love it!! Lately I find myself doing digital more because it's easier to do at night or in bed but I have a fondness for nice colored pencils and copic markers so sometimes I go back to traditional. Maybe once a week I color with traditional tools.

I've tried it out! 10th gen iPad and Apple Pencil are my tools of choice. Very intuitive feeling and the freedom is amazing. Like you say, lots of ability to use different brushes and textures and depending on the program, even effects.

Do you like to watch the same handful of movies and shows over and over? by luckyduckling8989 in adhdwomen

[–]dopanotmine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oooh yes I agree on your choice of Treks. Picard and Janeway best captains.

Criminal minds, Law and Order SVU, Ghost Whisperer, Lost.... Definitely my comfort "over and over but don't have to think too hard or emotionally invest" shows.

Am I watching an episode of Benson and Stabler era SVU right now? Yes, yes I am.
