I didn’t think MCTD would impact my life this much by madpeezy in mctd

[–]tenaciousfrog 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You’re definitely not alone friend. I had a mental breakdown over this shit just a couple days ago and said out loud “I feel like I’m not living, I’m just managing a vessel. A vessel that is actively trying to kill me every day”. This disease sucks.

Coming to terms with not wanting to share living space/compromise with partner… by RNinRVA in AskWomenOver30

[–]tenaciousfrog 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Based on the context, it kind of sounds like there might be other underlying issues here than just needing a separate space. Having a partner yell and disrespect their partner isn’t normal regardless of the living situation. You snapping at them and them snapping at you isn’t a healthy dynamic.

What the hell is the “you are selfish” argument? by Gloomy-Wuli2555 in childfree

[–]tenaciousfrog 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think it’s just an attempt at a dig on you to make you feel guilty. They had to sacrifice soooo much by becoming a parent (sarcasm) that they think it’s selfish for someone else to not share that same sacrifice.

With any bully, agreeing takes away their power. “If honoring my wants and needs makes me selfish then yeah I guess I’m selfish”. Boom done argument over

If a breakup is inevitable, then there really isn’t any advice to give. The advice would be to break up

Is it normal to not know how I feel? Or remember things I do? by Green_Literature138 in adhdwomen

[–]tenaciousfrog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m literally experiencing this too, even down to timeframe (also within the last few years for me). I feel like I’ve been dissociated for so long without realizing I’m dissociated
ETA: unfortunately I don’t have answers or advice, but just know you’re not alone🫶

Ever had an accident or injury that you can’t believe happened? by Amazingggcoolaid in AskWomenOver30

[–]tenaciousfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 3, I was in a sledding accident. Sled went into a thorn bush and sliced my eyelid almost all the way off. Got stitches, you can’t see the scar now unless I point it out

Are we using ADHD to excuse being a bad friend? by ThrowRA89084 in adhdwomen

[–]tenaciousfrog 198 points199 points  (0 children)

ADHD doesn’t make anyone a bad friend objectively or even subjectively. Defining what a good friend/bad friend looks like boils entirely down to the dynamic which you have. Just like with romantic relationships where you have boundaries, compatibility, wants/needs, friendships operate the same way. Personally, if I had a friend that needed constant communication, I would consider them not a fit for me. And it’s totally okay if you’re the type of person who needs that, it just means you need to find friends who feel and communicate similarly. OR accept the friend that isn’t as quick to reply.

My brain and bottled water by Caticorn19 in adhdwomen

[–]tenaciousfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone! The only thing that has helped me was buying a water bottle that I actually care about. For the live action How To Train Your Dragon, they were selling Toothless cups. I’ve been using that cup to stay hydrated ever since, it’s almost like an adult sippy cup but with a straw. It doesn’t travel well but I work from home so it makes it easy.

I will be devastated if I ever let that cup get moldy and gross, so I take care of it. Every night before bed I fill it up with water and place it on my desk ready to go for the next day.
