Gotta like ADHD, this time my hyper fixation is, well, mushrooms! 🍄💜
Here are some unisex and more fem/masc options for all. Reblog if you agree that mushrooms are great and would like to support a small business devoted to using funds to the creation of music, film and poetry about neurodiversity, the climate crisis, gender and mental health. Thank you:)
You can get any of them here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/GenderlessBySkaly?ref=search_shop_redirect
Do any of you have Cygna for your insurance? They're pulling the "We don't cover vyvanse" 🐄💩 , but they also made sure to check with my doctor if i had tested all the "try this first" things before vyvanse.
I want to hear from you if you have gotten Cygna to cover vyvanse OR if you've got real world advice for convincing an insurer to cover drugs they don't want to. I need ammo before calling them.
I post about creative stuff, my day & #dogs & #ADHD (the pros & cons) it's #NeuroDiverse not neurodiminished. Surprising how many in creative / tech now have diagnosis.
I believe in hope, in optimism, in learning from our mistakes, adapting, innovating, improving. I like to post about interesting advances, about beneficial things we can, or could do, at individual or large scale.
I like to follow lots of different people. It can be good for keeping a bit of my scrappy european languages skills together too. Also I intensely disliked Twitter's unheard serfs vs broadcasting overlords model of low follows but high following (for post visibility) it seemed sort of arrogant & elitist.
Everyone matters. I profoundly ❤️ that #Fediverse leaves air in the room for the quiet ones, the shy ones, the awkward ones. Sometimes I can talk to a room, sometimes I'd rather watch from the sides, depends on the day or setting.
That's probably enough for most people, I might add more below.
How do I go about finding information on which European countries I can and cannot take my meds into, and what documentation I will need to carry to prove my prescription if needed?
Do I need to contact officials from the countries I want to travel through to ask (and if so how do I do that) or is there somewhere I haven't found that officially collates this sort of info?
I am so used to pre-brexit, pre-med travel that I have no concept of how to do this sort of officialdom
Sorry so quiet here lately, I've been busy with some other projects. Looking into #Calckey as another #Fediverse alternative and falling down the 3d printing rabbit hole again
I once saw a great analogy about sensory issues that used some sort of silos or tanks for the different senses and how they overflow into the other once they are full. Can't find it again. Anyone know what I'm talking about and can point me in a direction? #SensoryIssues#Autism#ADHD#AuDHD
Do you have more sensible days where your sensory issues are worse? I just had my sensory issue cup overflow by being thirsty. 🙈 #ADHD#AuDHD#Autism#Neurodiversity

Question for my ND friends: how do you cope with downsizing personal belongings?
I'm preparing to move to a new home, and I've been paralyzed by the size of the task of packing and need to throw things away to simplify. The problem is, my stuff feels like an extension of myself, and I know I will regret it.
Afgelopen dagen lekker diep in een #hyperfocus gezeten, gewoon verstand op nul en achter de dopanime gaan. Het resultaat ben ik weer prima tevreden over. #ADHD#ADD
Gezond leven, douchen en aandacht aan sociale dingen zijn wel compleet verwaarloosd.
Working with this metaphor of nutriment/nutrition made me realise that #ADHD feels like constantly starving, despite seeming banquets of food (sensory impressions) all around. #Buddhism has a name for that too- the hungry ghost. Being a hungry ghost is usually explained in terms of being a bad rebirth destination due to greediness , but for my ADHD mind it’s more like dying of thirst while stranded at sea- there’s water everywhere but however much you drink, you’ll still be thirsty.
I have a terrible time remembering which pills I've taken or if I already took my pills so I finally got frustrated and devised a random ADHD hack. I can't always remember if I've taken them, but I can remember if they were upside down or right side up for some reason. So I started flipping them over every time I take them. I can also make sure I took all of them because they should all be in the same direction. I'm perplexed, but it's working. #adhd#audhd#chronicIllness#adhdHacks
I created this #ADHD timer web app for my kid to help him stay on track while getting dressed, doing homework, etc. It can do simple countdowns of 5, 10, 20, or 30 minutes. It can also do an alternating 10 minutes of study with 3 minute break timer. Also, it can hoot at you every 30 seconds because of course it can. Free to use for anyone who finds it helpful. #neurodivergent#webdev
For some reason I thought this was sometime last year but I see I posted this to my site in January. My sense of time is way off these days. LOL I swear I have not taken #Mushrooms but I hope you enjoy this one.
@MarkOnArt My sense of time seems to have nothing to do with actual reality these days. Some of that's #ADHD#TimeBlindness for me, but it seems like a LOT of folks w/out those issues have been having trouble tracking time these past few years. Interesting/odd that that should be such a broad experience. In any case, you're definitely not alone!
Also? Gorgeous #art! I love the moonlight edging the mushroom, and the texture of lighter sky between tree silhouettes. #Magical, truly.
