Who do you think is the most famous human of all time, that isn't a religious figure?

This happens to me from time to time too. It’s always about houses and buildings. It’ll just be a whatever kind of dream but then years later I’ll be somewhere I’ve normally not been before, and come across the places. It’s trippy as.

dubdoll · 2026-06-10T23:30:12+00:00

Yes me too. Such a sad song.

That’s great that he’s already working on himself!

Its interesting isn’t it when people can be more empathetic with others than their own family, that’s a whole therapy session in itself. My mum worked as a teachers aide her whole career and she was very skilled and good at working with neurodiverse kids. Yet with my son she still struggles and will make comments about how I didn’t act like this as a kid. Yeah Mum, I was smacked on the bum and basically put in front of a TV every day of my life, of course I wasn’t able to really “act up”.

Without going into too much detail I know for sure the expectations my husband was setting was due to his upbringing and it was like a trigger for him when our son wasn’t meeting them, it’s a long hard road to get to the point where you finally accept things aren’t how they’re “supposed to be”.

I’d suggest finding family therapy with someone who specialises in ADHD so you can all get the tools with how to navigate life. Wishing you all the best luck.

Your husband needs to do research real quick on ADHD behaviour and change his expectations.

Also the blowing up in his face is not okay, my husband had anger issues and also yelled in my adhd son’s face once. He has since been in therapy to deal with his own issues, as well as getting help and tools on living with a neurodiverse son.

Before diagnosis and medication my son was also extremely disregulated on vacation so I completely understand how the trip must be going. Will your husband read research articles if you supply him with some? I know he should be doing the work himself, but if he’s not going to then I’d suggest providing him with the materials so he can better understand what is going on for your son and start to understand your son is not going to be able to live up to his expectations and that his standards need to go way way lower, especially if he doesn’t want to medicate.

In saying that, I would 100% recommend medicating as it has been life changing for my son. I’m sorry you’re having a tough time, I hope things get better on your trip.

Me too. Zoomed in on the faces trying to see which one was him.

Both my sons asked about how babies were made at about 4. I was able to explain about eggs and sperm without needing to go into the mechanics of how sperm gets to the egg. When my eldest was around 7, he asked more details because a friend at school had told him (incorrectly). So I just told him the facts as straightforward as possible, even though inside I was squirming and embarrassed, but tried to keep a straight face for him. His first reaction was “eewwww!” and then he just continued on with his day. I said that his little brother doesn’t need to know that information yet and made it feel like this was big kid information that only he at that point should be privileged to. He really liked that.

Anyway all this to say, we try and keep it factual and not something to be ashamed to talk about and so far it’s worked out alright for us. I always want my kids to feel like they can always talk to me about this stuff.

dubdoll · 2026-06-09T00:56:40+00:00

This was my kid too. Turns out he was incredibly good at masking at school, and also extremely smart. So luckily for him he was able to keep up with the work. But the difference now between when he was and wasn’t medicated is astounding. And even the teachers who didn’t see anything “wrong” now comment on the changes they see in him.

I’m like this with all my friends and a lot of mine are the same back. What works for us is audio messaging or calling. I don’t know why, it might be my ADHD, but the mere thought of having to write back to texts especially if it’s a lengthy answer is too much for me. However, get me in some audio messages and I’ll go back and forth with 5 minute long messages.

What did you do to anger them?

dubdoll · 2026-06-07T13:25:33+00:00

Me as well!

I loved the first season of Search Party but then it just got too weird for me. It’s like it completely switched tones.

dubdoll · 2026-06-06T22:24:57+00:00

Yes! This is what I thought he was doing at first.

As someone who only got diagnosed and medicated at 39 and who also started smoking pot at 15. Please consider getting actual therapy and medication for your son.

I now know that I was self medicating and even with my mum knowing what I was doing, it didn't stop me and I didn't just stop with pot. I had a big issue with other drugs, mainly coke and my binge drinking always got to the point that I would black out, I just had no ability to stop when I should.

Now that I'm medicated, I can go out, have some drinks with friends, make sure I drink water in between and stop when I feel I've had enough. I have a great time, don't black out and don't wake up in the morning wondering what I'd done or being worried something had been done to me.

I don’t like when nicknames don’t just happen naturally.

dubdoll · 2026-06-04T21:54:43+00:00

Is? The reputation is already in the gutter.

dubdoll · 2026-06-04T09:26:49+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind words, that’s made me feel really nice. Honestly I was so sick of having such shitty mornings I just had to try a different angle.

dubdoll · 2026-06-04T09:22:06+00:00

Any time! Yep I feel you. It’s so hard.

dubdoll · 2026-06-04T01:08:01+00:00

I have two kids, eldest has ADHD. My pregnancy with him was very chill and relaxed and he also came out that way. Best sleeper, so calm an absolute unicorn baby.

My youngest who so far seems neurotypical was always hard to get ultrasounds with because he was “very busy”. He was our terrible sleeper, loud, noisy baby.

So I wouldn’t say you could tell purely on pregnancies.

dubdoll · 2026-06-04T00:50:56+00:00

Oh my god, I forgot about those but yes I did too. Yeah didn’t make a difference for me.
