#that adhd feel

Everyone else will read this first

FUCK

That adhd feel when you’re all packed up and prepared to go study, you’re pumped and ready to take on the challenge, then you sit down to do one (1) thing right before you leave and the mass amount of energy you had just completely disappears and you suddenly feel kinda sick and ready to curl up in a ball and die

i’ll start: when i was a little kid my parents made me play on a soccer team and i kept abandoning the games to chase butterflies across the field

whether you don’t have your driver’s license yet or do but don’t drive because your symptoms make it dangerous or otherwise thoroughly unenjoyable

who doesn’t remember doing this as a kid

i want this slogan on a tshirt

oh you haven’t heard? adhd is actually demonic possession

actual photo of the dwindling norepinephrine in my brain

and to conclude, this big mood:

me, walking into a classroom: where to sit, where to sit…

adhd: sit in the front so you’ll be less distracted

sensory dysfunction: sit in the back with your back to the wall to minimize the open space around you

me: 

me: *taking a test*

brain: here’s the Beach Boys’ entire discography on repeat

me: *touches a dictionary*

brain: *starts screaming the alphabet song at full volume*

me: wow! can’t wait to pay attention in class today!

brain: actually! ur gonna read a review of a movie that you’ve already seen a dozen times! for no reason!

adhd is either suddenly remembering that thing you meant to five hours ago that you didn’t do or suddenly realizing that you did something that you don’t remember doing

When your heart suddenly starts beating faster and you’re trying to figure out if it’s the adhd or anxiety

I found out yesterday that this person I’ve known for a while actually has the same type of ADHD as me. It was so refreshing and to find out someone thinks like me. lol I think I weirded him out a little bc I was so excited but that shit was cool

Hello, sorry I’ve been hiatus for like maybe over a month now but life was really starting to get to me. I had a couple of panic attacks and have been dealing with applying to college stress (still haven’t decided my major/school lol gonna kms (jk not really )), exams, friend problems, adhd shit (you guys know), and just my usual busy schedule on top of that. I just needed to lighten the load and managing my tumblr was the easiest thing to let go of. 

I feel bad about this because a lot of you guys have been submitting messages and stuff to me and I literally just you guys in the dark (I’m so so sorry). I was just in like bad condition and needed to fix myself and get back on track before I tried to help anyone else. Keeping that in mind, although I sometimes offer advice, I make no guarantee I will always be able to or that it’s going to be the best advice. Ya know? I’m just some high school kid, not Dr. Phil but imma try best anyway because we need to stick together as a community and try to help each other out when we can :)

That said, from now on (or at least for now) I will be responding to all messages privately (as soon as I get through all the anonymous messages in my inbox) as I just don’t want my the blog to be an advice/submission blog you know? I feel like ADHDtumblr already has a few really good blogs that post submissions, so idk, if you don’t like this, I guess maybe just go to them instead (?) (sorry). 

Anywho, I’ll start writing back to all the messages this week (just please have patience with me though, there’s a lot).

 I’m steal dealing with anxiety stuff and life in general, but I miss this and I miss you guys so imma slowly work my way back to posting often again. Sorry for the long text post.  <3

Me: *sitting alone in waiting room jiggling my leg furiously*

Stranger: *enters room, walking*

Me: *jiggles leg with less intensity and tries to not act weird*

Stranger: *notices my fidgeting and slightly awkward atmosphere around them, but ignores it and continues on their way, exiting the room*

Me: *goes back to jiggling leg furiously but is more self conscious about it this time*

When someone is explaining something to me and I have to look away and like literally map out, visualize, and repeat everything they said just to understand what the fuck is going on

Whenever I make food I have to stay next the oven the whole time it bakes because I am 100% sure I’m gonna forget otherwise

When someone stops talking but your brain has already moved on to like 12 other things since they started so you kind of just act like you know what’s going on like

i had a really hard day today constantly trying to compensate for my adhd and i haven’t slept for like 36 hours and now i’m just eating bread because i’m too sad and tired to actually make any food for dinner

Me: ok! I’m gonna get my reading assignment done fast today and get some actual sleep tonight

First pages of reading assignment:

Adhd:

I hate it when I go out in the hallway to get some quiet while I take a test only to find out it’s just as distracting as the classroom since someone decided it would be cool to talk really loud on the phone a couple of ft away from me.

THAT HAPPENED TWICE TODAY

The sensory overload feels are real people
