I put a lil 3x2 poll in the field and invited viewers to @ me with more detail about their answers.

The poll asks for your autism status and your eating speed and I'm testing the hypothesis that autie folks eat faster.

The number of people disclosing #ADHD diagnoses in full confidence that's all they have/are 😂

So you trauma dumped in your first message, you gave me a family history, you told me you have limited insight and theory of mind, and that checks out, because none of this is ringing any bells? The call is coming from inside the house!

I was just watching an online video, organization tips from someone with #ADHD for people with ADHD.

She starts out by relating some of the things she goes through with ADHD, the forgetting and such. Why? You're talking specifically *to* people with ADHD. We know already, we do it, too. If you were talking about ADHD to someone who doesn't have it, fine. But to us? Get on with it, already.

Another thing she makes a big point of in this introductory section is how bad her ADHD was getting for her; specifically, that her attention span didn't allow her to stick to anything for more than five minutes. I pause it, look down--this video is nine minutes long. If what she has to say is so useful for people who can't handle five minutes, why is she trying to communicate it over the course of nine? I'm three minutes into it, and she hasn't even *begun* to say what she's made the video to actually talk about.

Now that I've taken a couple of minutes to groan about it, maybe I can try to go back to it and see if she ever gets around to the damn point.

Snowboarding is my confessional, the mountain the only place my brain finally shuts up. Maybe that’s enough. Maybe it’s time to stop running.

Nelivuotiaan kans puuhatessa on se hyvä juttu, että molemmat jaksaa keskittyä tasan yhtä kauan samaan leikkiin ennen ku vaihtuu. #adhd

@lifewithtrees @actuallyadhd AuDHD here, so unsure where one thing ends and the other begins, but: knowing that both good and bad events/environments/situations can be overstimulating, and can cause overwhelm. I was so confused about why really nice things could cause me to spin out before I understood this. #Adhd #AuDHD

I have a relative who is in their early 20s and has #adhd.

I know there’s a number of us late diagnosed ADHD and AuDHD folks here so I would be curious to hear:

What is something that helped you/that you wish you would have known in your early 20s that made your life easier with regard to managing your adhd etc?

Here is a list of #neurodivergent resources that came with my diagnosis. I haven't read through all of them yet, so I can't vouch. But I figured I'd share:

Hi everyone 💗
Living with ADHD myself, I know how intense job interviews can feel, especially with nerves and overthinking. This is why I wrote a gentle, ADHD-friendly guide and wanted to share it here in case it supports someone:

Hey, you might already know this, but here are your reminders if you shovel snow --

TAKE BREAKS.

FOCUS ON THE STEPS.

Have ADHD and tend to hyperfocus?
Then SET A TIMER &/or have someone DRAG your ass back into the house .

You CANNOT do it all at once.
It's still coming down out here and it's beastly cold. People regularly drop dead shoveling.

#estrogen
Vent---- arghhhh!!!! My increase in estrogen coincided with a cold-turkey, no antihistamines prior to evaluation appointment. I feel miserable. Itchy, cranky tired. I don't know what's what and why everything is annoying me, which is causing what, was I always this miserable before my estrogen started tanking? Wtf. Ugh. I have so much I should be doing but I've been feeling shitty, and not in functional headspace for very long in the day. I hope it passes. Why is nature cruel?
Also managed to forget to load Meloxicam (nsaid) into my med box so I've been grumpy around with a hey joints and knees. How dumb can I get with this collection of issues!? Arghhh. #adhd

"ADHD meds made it possible to land my dream job but medicated me was an untested creature and trying to do too much (because I could), this led to severe autistic burnout. If I couldn't live the life I wanted, if I was so exhausted and lapsing in and out of shutdowns and depression and found daily life so freaking hard, I didn't know what was left. I retreated to writing."

OMG this too is so me!

#ADHD #AuDHD #burnout

Went through my #Obsidian vault and resurfaced half written essays that could potentially fuel my Substack, blogs for a year.
I have a thing about incomplete works, but I think there's something about Obsidian before, especially if you don't use Bases or Dataview, where you tend to lose things. Or maybe it's just my #Adhd shiny object syndrome.

But anyway, my mission is to create a stockpile out of this, and meanwhile, put a pause on my #Substack and blogs while I do.

I also plan to create a routine where I can keep producing without weekend panics where I go, omg Substack issue out and I have nothing! 🥴

#Blogging #PKM

So, it's midnight. I've been trying to get to sleep for two hours. The migraine meds have kept the worst at bay today and I've been editing the first video for my retrocomputing peertube channel.

It's done but there's this tiny bug in Cinnelera-GG Infinity which silences a few seconds of one audio track in the final render.

I've tried a few work-arounds but none worked, and it was time to go to bed.

So, obviously, my stupid brain can't let go, and keeps analyzing the issue and coming up with workarounds.

So there I am, chemically dampened migraine and all, at midnight, trying another workaround and waiting 25 minutes for another render of the whole thing.

At least this workaround did the trick and all that's left to do is finish the subtitles tomorrow and I can finally publish!

#RetroComputing #VideoEditing #CinelerraGG #Migraine #ADHD #Midnight

today on #creativecode: now sessions start with /whatup and end with /wrap-it-up (an ADHD-friendly "good dog" victory lap, body check, permission to stop)

I *am* excited, but my hyper focus is killing me. gotta disengage.

Now every session ends with affirmation, not exhaustion ✨

Future: Calendar integration to track sessions retroactively. A diary!
