Proverbial neurotypical part of me walking into the room: Why are you lying under the bed?
Me: Looking for a hammer.
Them: Pardon?
Me: I have no clue where Roomba put it.
Them: That ... does not help.
Me: After the DYI was done, I put the hammer next to the door to bring it down to the cellar later. Roomba went on duty and since the hammer is small, just moved it somewhere and now I'm trying to figure out where it is.
Them: I ... actually feel relieved ...

10) Stub my toe badly.

1) Decide to *quickly* re-wire the fairy lights around the bed.
2) Move the bed to the middle of the room “just for a second”.
3) Realise the lights need unplugging. Unplug them.
4) Realise I need a hammer.
5) Go to the cellar for the hammer.
6) Accidentally reorganise ski boots.
7) Return upstairs. It’s 1am.
8) Decide sleep is now the best life choice.
9) Walk into the dark.

Living with autism or ADHD can feel like navigating a maze—sometimes frustrating, often overwhelming, but also uniquely inspiring. 💭 I've found that our minds are incredible, bursting with creativity and insights.

One of the biggest challenges for me as someone with #ADHD is that when I'm completely lost in thought at work, but I realize towards the end of a long work day that my head is drained and doesn't like it anymore, but I feel this certain pressure to deliver and want to prove to myself that I can solve this task or problem.

On the one hand, you can't or don't want to call it a day, but on the other hand you know that you won't get anything sensible done anyway.

That's the moment when I can no longer cope with myself and no longer know how to deal with myself. This has a negative effect on my state of mind and puts me in a depressive mood.
Unfortunately, I haven't yet found the switch to turn this off from one moment to the next.

Dammit! I was working on a really good toot, and then I had to go switch a load, and then, when I sat down to write it, I forgot what it was about.
