Actually Adhd - Blog Posts

doing all my homework in a few hour period that I was supposed to be working on over the past 3 weeks then letting myself engage in my hyperfixation as a little treat

any other neurodivergent (mainly autism and/or adhd) people unable to consume content normally.

like my dad will just?? watch something and be like "yeah that was good" then move on?? And then there's me, who will consume something, stare at a wall for a bit, and then rapidly try to consume any content I can find of it. Fanart, fanfiction, c.ai bots, memes, youtube videos... and if I can't find any I get upset. And I rewatch/reread/etc it over and over again and obsess over it for days. It's not even a hyperfixation rn I am just unable to consume media normally

also why am I the only posts on the raining knives tag since 2020 where is the fandom this comic deserves a fandom wtf it's so good I need content of it pls my little audhd brain cannot /silly

I started watching a new anime (AoT) and have now beaten the ADHD mental barrier of “no haha don’t watch this, why? Idk”

so much of my life has been “you know i always really wanted to…” and then not doing the /thing/ because I gaslit myself into thinking i couldn’t. But now? now!! NOW?!? i’m free will maxxing babeyy! I will write a shitty shorty story! I WILL BUILD MY LEGO SET! I WILL BUY A MINI FRIDGE! I WILL GET A DEGREE! WHO WILL STOP ME!!! Not me!!!

petition to make those long blog posts simplified for folks who cant focus that long with em

like the photo describy thing? that but it simplifies long posts.

how do people?? not panic when they have a question?? like?? you just ask it??? how homie?? how do you do that without pancking????

same goes with homework?? how do you just do it?? i cant even do it when theres a deadline?? what??

It's crazy how with a little bit of adhd and excelling grades you can convince everyone that Ur fine, even when Ur OD'ing.

I love rediscovering my old interests bc I already know stuff about it but I get to learn/remember them again and fall in love with them on a deeper level

Why does ADHD have to be so hard?

I just wish I could study without chronic procrastination!

Or get myself up in the mornings without assistance.

Or have people understand that ADHD isn't just "quirky little gal" disorder.

It's funny, I get kind of surprised when my diagnosed disability disables me-

Hi!

My name online is Ray (she/they) , I'm from the UK.

I enjoy being in nature, playing the violin and a whole host of other things that i may well post about.

BOUNDARIES:

I have Derealization Disorder, so please refrain from mentioning "simulation theory" as this tends to worsen my symptoms.

I also have Tourette's syndrome so please do not purposefully trigger any of my tics (if you know what I have as tics) in my comment section!

Please just be generally respectful :)

DNI:

I don't have a full DNI yet, I may add to this.

Essentially don't be a d**k!

me: I need to do my home work at 8

me: I need to do my home work at 8

me: I need to do my home work at 8

*8 passes*

me: . . .

me: I need to do my home work at 9

and for my next trick, i will vanish right before your eyes! ((you told me i was a too much after rambling about my interests))

*takes adhd meds* oh nice I actually experience hunger now, yay for having several warnings before entering the hunger danger zone

*hungry constantly* ok well you didn't need to do all that

If your ADHD is causing you to fuck up more, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the ADHD is getting worse.. you could just be doing more things which gives you more opportunity to fuck up.

This is one of the reasons, ADHD can get ‘worse’ as an adult. A child has very few responsibilities. An adult on the other hand, has all kinds of opportunities to fuck up on. 

Help whys my grandpa trying to convert me to Christianity bc apparently it'ill "make my adhd go away"

I'm just trying to eat breakfast in peace 😭

Ty for the tag <2

1) my creativity!!! I love creating art so so much and it's so much fun. I love helping others come up with ideas, i love getting inspired by others or inspiring them! I love how i always have new ideas and i never run out of things to make! I love love love creating things so much and i hope i can do it for the rest of my life!

2) My love for learning new things!! I love it so so much. I'm like a sponge soaking up knowledge and although others seem a bit put off by me dropping fun facts no matter what the topic is of conversation is or ranting for hours about the most random and obscure things, i absolutely my love for learning! I love my ability to connect my knowledge and connect different topics. I love discussing them with others. I love that even though i have pretty severe memory issues, my interests seem to be the one thing i do remember! I also love how broad my interests are. (credit to my adhd/autism for making me hyperfixate on the most random shit LMFAO)

3) my hair! Idk whether this counts, since it's dyed, but i absolutely love the blue color!! And my haircut :D its so pretty! Also shoutout to my natural hair for surviving all the bleach <2 i unironically love how it's still alive bc i always forget to use conditioner wifhskej

@amethystfairy1 @livinggold @cursedtime @clowneval @queryforthesoul @appleblocks @justsofiaaaa @wimblton475 @sailorque and anyone else who wants to reblogg :D

AIGHT CHAT WE'RE GONNA GO IN A CIRCLE AND SAY 3 THINGS WE LOVE ABOUT OURSELVES MEOW

I'll go first :3

1) My hair. It's a dark brown most of the time but there are little flecks of red that shine in the sun :3

2) My eyes. Most of the time they're a brown-black color, but in the sun they turn a very nice and pretty amber ^w^

3) My thighs. I know most people hate having large thighs but I honestly love them. I can stim on them, I can use them to warm up my hands, and they make it easier to trap my partners in snuggles >:3

Have a nice day and stay safe out there <3

Should i start posting multifandom stuff?

Idk I've always hyperfixated on one fandom REALLY hard for like 1-3 yrs (warrior cats -> mha -> danganronpa -> dsmp/osmp -> qsmp -> hermitcraft?)

But idk currently my brain isn't like violently latching onto any fandoms and making my entire identity revolve around it. Hermitcraft is cool n all but no matter how hard i try, my hyperfixation on it isn't as strong as i want it to be :<

So i though i might like, branch out a bit? Imma prob still mainly post hermitcraft, but i might occasionally mention dungeon meshi, saiki k, bbc merlin and some other stuff! (more in the tags)

!!!IF YOU GUYS WATCH ANY OF THESE, LEMME KNOW!!! or if you have any suggestions for other mcyts / animes / video games that i might find cool :D

Everytime ppl start liking/rb old art of mine again i get a lil jumpscared, cause it's like "whats tha- WOAH! Wait i completely forgot i made that..."

Memory issues + poor object permanence will do that to u wkdjakdj

[Day 18]: joehills

FINALLY! Ive been waiting for a reason to show off my joe design >:D i present to you: jhost controlling his juppet! Hope u guys like it, imma go back to working on the next art rq :3

My Toxic trait is that everytime i have an art hyperfixation, i convince myself that this level of productivity is something i can keep up and start planning a shit ton of long term art projects that i usually leave unfinished-

ANYWAYS, ON A COMPLETELY UNRELATED NOTE: /HJ

Would you guys be interested in me posting Hermitcraft AUs? I'll probably make a post about them soon, but i dunno whether it's a good idea to announce them yet since i haven't rly started working on them... Eh I'm sure it will be fineeee

I unironically get the zoomies everytime joel and etho interact LMFAO

See, minecraft/mcyt is my special interest (cause autism) and I'm currently hyperfixating on hermitcraft, especially joel and etho (cause adhd)

So seeing joel and etho interact on hc....

My brain literally can't handle the dopamine rush i get when i see those two even MENTION each other. I need to pause the video and just run around my room like a feral animal. If i dont get rid of the excess energy i will simply explode into confetti.

Yk when u reblogg yourself but u forget u did it and then u look at ur page and the first thing u see is an 'old' drawing of urs and ur like? What the fuck?? Did i accidentally post this again?

And for a split second u panic before realizing reblogging exists

...

I rly need to fix my sleep schedule

"Ranboo probably has adhd" "Ranboo probably has autism"

No. Ranboo is an allistic/neurotipical person written by autistic people.

If you make fun of people for harmless actions you will inevitably find yourself being ableist.

my hyperfixations are messing up school does anyone have advice im struggling

tumblr is where i allow myself to unmask i thinks(or as close to unmasking as i can while still interacting)

I have ADHD and inherited dysautonomia, I did not realize they were so similar until now

Not to go "if you have ADHD just go for a run" or anything, but I am so serious if you have ADHD you should regularly go outside, no headphones no phone no nothing and just stand and observe for a while until you've had enough. Not until you get bored, until you've had enough. Drink your coffee without watching tiktok. Have a bath without music. Turn down the volume in your headphones. I cannot overstate how much learning to be bored is cruicial with ADHD. Life is not just about pleasure, no matter what your dysregulated dopamine system thinks, and when you teach your brain to be okay with being bored, then boring tasks stop feeling like torture. By letting yourself be bored you are yoinking your system out of the high/low binary and allow for the highs to feel like actual highs and not just anything that isn't low. I am so serious go literally touch grass. Listen to the sounds in your flat. Stimulate your body the way it was designed. It lowers anxiety and makes you feel like you're real and best of all it's completely free

Being a lesbian and nonhuman at the same time feels.. strange.

Because, like, human girls are these absolutely stunning, almost unreal beings. They're beautiful beyond words, the kind of beauty that can only ever be conveyed through the careful plucking of guitar strings, or through a vibrant splash of paint against barren canvases. They hold the stars in their eyes and flecks of gold in their hair, as if the forces of the cosmos themselves hand crafted their forms. They're soft and gentle and warm, but also strong and fierce and an unbelievable force to be reckoned with. Once when I was young, I got caught outside during a tropical hurricane and was almost lifted into the air by the winds; that is the closest thing I can compare to the feeling of falling for a girl. They are everything that a human being should be and more.

And then, there I am. A beast. This.. thing that stalks the woods in the darkest hours of the night, with dirt coated matted fur and piercing amber gaze, unseen and uncomprehended by man. Constant yearning, hunger. For flesh, for bloodlust, for isolation and freedom, to be feared, to be whispered about in hushed tales around a withering campfire. The creature in the forest, didn't you hear? If it catches you alone on a full moon it will peel your skin away from your body with fangs the size of your palms. Stay close. Your measly pocket knife won't do much in its wake I fear. A wild, snarling thing that flinches beneath humanity's touch and rejects their "civility" in favor of the murmuring creek that sings old and long forgotten hymns to the ancient mountains above.

I know when they look at me they see one of them, a human with soft skin and kind eyes, a human who smiles at them and perhaps offers a passing compliment, a human who always tries to coax the timid street cat and watchfully steps around sidewalk slugs. A human. But that is not what I am, at least not in the way that they are. And when I look back at them, with my green eyes that I wished glowed amber, I can't help but wonder "How could someone so divinely human find companionship with something so desperately unhuman as me? How long until you realize the humanoid body you see before you is merely a flawed disguise? Will you still grasp my hand with fond affection when it warps into a mangled paw?"

I can't believe the doctors didn't diagnose me with ADHD when I was a kid because I "had to get rid of my depression first just to be sure" MF IT'S A TWO PIECE COMBO MEAL

the restaurant I’m in has the tv on full volume and also music at the same time so obviously I’m on the verge of homocide

as an autistic person, I can confirm that I can see the HUD
