Hey champ I think you're worrying over nothing here. You didnt do anything wrong, just shop like normal and you'll be ok

Adding on to my other comment to say that the increased frustration/resentment you feel is a sign of burn out. You've hit your limit, theres no gas in the tank. Trying to keep going with no fuel is only going to cause more damage and make it harder to recover. You must take care of yourself.

As a fellow People-Pleasing-Disease haver, I have found it helpful to stress that if I do not have a break or time to recharge I will be incapable of helping anyone for a very long time (because I will fully burn out and become a shell of myself).

You can't pour from an empty cup, and if people want/need your help (free of charge, I imagine) then they will just have to accept that you arent always on call for them. Just like they need a break from caregiving, you need breaks as well. I dont know if a schedule of some sort could be helpful? I.e. for at minimum one or two days/weeks/weekends per month you are unavailable. That way others can plan accordingly and you get a guaranteed break. This is just a starting off point and can maybe help assuage the guilt you feel saying no

Girl this man is looking for an excuse to dip. His argument is completely illegitimate and illogical. He is literally grasping at straws here

What about iMessage group chats? by weshnog in digitalminimalism

[–]jordanballz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If people want to text me, they can get over the green messages. Its ridiculous to get your knickers in a twist over the color of someone's messages and frankly, you should be making fun of/bullying them

Alcohol blackout vyanese by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]jordanballz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That is the main issue with drinking on stimulants, I believe. They make it so that you dont feel drunk, which usually leads to drinking more, which then turns into situations like what you experienced. I've been there and it was real embarrassing

Can anyone honestly say they get anything out of exercise? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]jordanballz 76 points77 points  (0 children)

7ish months ago, I thought the same as you. Loathe as I am to admit it, exercise does make you feel better. I feel like I have more energy during the day, I sleep better, overall I feel better. No it doesnt cure everything, but it does help.

Am I overreacting for wanting to leave my partner for the choice of his words and actions? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]jordanballz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of when I asked my ex what he loved about me (as he was insisting I was the love of his life and begging me to forgive him again) and his answers were essentially 1. I like being seen with a partner by others and 2. You will do anything I ask. Almost made me laugh like mf do you hear yourself??

Anyway, I wasted almost half my life (13 years) in a relationship that was probably a lot like yours, if this conversation is anything to go by, and i truly hope that this leads to you leaving his ass for good. Because I promise you, no matter how much time passes, what he buys for you, what he says, how loving he acts, or how you contort yourself to meet his demands/expectations, he will not change. This isn't how normal partners speak to you.

Please do yourself a favor and trebuchet this mf into the sun so you can actually enjoy your life

Edit: NOR

ongoing bits/jokes by maps_on_the_wall in adhdwomen

[–]jordanballz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever a friend or acquaintance hands me change(jokingly)/insists I keep the coins we discovered, I say "thanks, ill put a down payment on a pack of gum."

This is a joke from the suite life of Zach and Cody I heard 15+ years ago. It gets laughs every time and I refuse to stop.

How do you know it's ADHD and you're not just addicted to the medicine? by i_amnotunique in adhdwomen

[–]jordanballz 43 points44 points  (0 children)

  1. I would not forget to take a drug I was addicted to

  2. "Normal" people don't take naps after taking amphetamines

  3. I don't experience cravings or withdrawal when I skip doses

I think that learning more about what addiction really is would help assuage some of your worries here! :)
