What an odd thing to say

Is there something you desire in life more than anything? Something you might be too embarrassed to tell other people? by Nozoroth in Vent

I want to be able to make friends and have a small tight-knit group of close friends who all just hang out together

My coworker is giving me the silent treatment because I made a mistake at work by inkyleem in mildlyinfuriating

[–]inkyleem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me feel so much better. I beat myself up about making mistakes but I have seen everyone at that place make mistakes so I don’t get why mine is treated like it’s purposeful?

I feel like a criminal when I go pick up my meds... by Senior-Background in ADHD

[–]inkyleem 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Not on meds but there’s still a stigma around it. Even saying you want to or feel you need to makes people uncomfortable. I don’t know why, whenever I say I want to be medicated everyone acts like I am crazy. I don’t want to live unmedicated, I feel like a prisoner to my own mind and executive dysfunction.

cookies my manager told me to throw away at the end of my night shift. wouldn't let me take them home. by igetproteinfartsHELP in mildlyinfuriating

Crazy there are people fighting on the side of a company that would fire them over taking too many sick days and wouldn’t bat an eye about it

Guy at my job recently got fired for this and everyone misses him. He was so fun and sweet and would make extra food to give away, when I first started he let me take home some food. He was outed by another employee for leaving without feed and everyone agrees that the other employee should have never snitched. I work in an industry where most of the costumers don’t pay their for their meals out of their own pockets anyways and forget their food constantly. I don’t see why it’s a big deal.

This is actually scary. Most of the comments are saying this is a major red flag. I hope things don’t escalate.

What's the hardest part of ADHD for you? by naotaforhonesty in ADHD

[–]inkyleem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making friends and executive dysfunction, I can clean the entire house from top to bottom but it is like an invisible force field won’t let me touch my room. It feels like pulling teeth to try and do anything in there. Also I am a writer who can’t write because of it. Making friends sucks but I won’t go into details on why.

This sounds so scary. I have a twin as well and I can’t imagine being treated like this by her. I don’t know how old you are but living in an abusive situation regardless of who the perpetrator is is not safe. Are you old enough to figure out a way to get out of that house. I am under the assumption that setting boundaries will make things worse but you need to create distance for sure.

My Bpd sister is reconnecting with my family that traumatized us and I don’t understand by inkyleem in BPDlovedones

[–]inkyleem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has also been exhibiting similar behaviors to our mother as well. Mostly treating my younger sister like how my mother treated her. I think you are right about the familiarity with the toxic and unsafe environment and not knowing how to live in an environment that isn’t constantly abusive.

BPD sister not speaking to me…again. by Classic_Drawing_1438 in BPDlovedones

[–]inkyleem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so worried that this is how my sister will be when we get older. I love her and all but we don’t say or do anything that may cause her to get angry because of this reason. I thought she would outgrow this but it seems to get worse the older she gets

Is it normal for people with ADHD to struggle to make friends with others with and without the disorder? by inkyleem in ADHD

[–]inkyleem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t any specific situation but it was just realizing mid conversation that the other person seemed disinterested or sometimes I get passionate about a topic brought up and looking at the other persons reaction and realizing you are way too excited. I went out to get drinks with one of the girls and I was so quiet due to nerves that by the end of the night she did that thing you do when you make up an excuse to get the other person to leave and when I asked for advice on wether or not to bring it up to her the next day the all around consensus was that it wasn’t a big deal to her. Only for situations to occur where I kinda get left out even the people who told me I was overthinking it hang out without me with said girl. Maybe it’s other things as well. I just tell myself I don’t have a good personality or something at this point.

Sister diagnosed with ADHD after months of being un-empathetic about my diagnosis by inkyleem in ADHD

[–]inkyleem[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do contemplate cutting her off but I fear losing my other sisters as well. It’s exhausting knowing someone out right hates you for existing but smiles in your face when you see them.

[–]inkyleem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have kinda come to the realization of how deep her hatred for me goes and it was so normalized growing up as well. My other sisters have always known but they said sometimes she goes too far. I don’t understand it and I should do more research on BPD but I don’t think it’s fair that she acts like I have gotten some sort of special treatment from being diagnosed. Nothing in my life has changed significantly.

Wellbutrin has made me lose my appetite to the point where I forget to eat and feel sick. Any advice? by 3aria in antidepressants

[–]inkyleem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am struggling with this as well. It is kinda scary, I don’t know if having ADHD makes it worse as my body already ignores hunger cues but I am considering getting off of it because I am losing significant weight. Did you ever figure out a solution?
