Nobody here is a doctor trying to diagnose anyone. We’re simply sharing memes that we feel are relatable, no matter if it’s relatable to normal humans or not, is a matter of exactly how much it effects your life.
For example, someone in this position with ADHD might have issues with talking on the phone because they don’t remember everything they need to ask. This gives them anxiety enough to not even call and might even hinder their mental ability to move on to another “task” because their task of calling about the desk, can’t be done.
All in all, if a behavior seen in this community effects you in a REALLY negative way, see a doctor.
No worries, friend. That’s why I didn’t just delete and ban you. It’s mostly for people who come in here and think ADHD just completely does not exist and every meme here is just pointless. Those people need to go, obviously.
It’s not “our fault” cause if it was up to me, I’d have been born into the 2nd richest family, 2nd smartest man in the world, 2nd biggest dick etc. Yet here we are. ADHD and hydracephalus from birth. Definitely not born with a “normal” brain.
However, it IS our responsibility to deal with it before it becomes a problem for others.
I’ve spent WAY too much time today listening to this theme song and counting the To dos and I still cannot hear more than 7. If you’re counting 8 then maybe our ears are just on different wavelengths.🤣
Perfectly valid. The major point being “if it’s interrupting your life” and from what you said, it seems like it’s not.
Different things work for different people. I know before I got diagnosed, I was in denial that there was an issue, yet several parts of my life were suffering because of my disorder and had been suffering for a long time.
Therefore, personally, I needed to get diagnosed as a sort of “first step to recovery” to reference your “alcohol addiction” analogy.
This is incorrect. Due to a number of reasons, including but not limited to: traumatic brain injuries, extreme compounding anxiety and/or depression, or PTSD could all cause symptoms that align perfectly with ADHD. even if those initial problems could be fixed, the brain works in such a way that the behavior that aligns with ADHD may not be so easily fixed once an individual has done it for so long.
Edit: this is just unprofessional opinion. Go see a doctor if things are interrupting your daily life.
I feel this in my soul. Imagine having the potential to have almost any question in the world in a matter of just a few seconds and instead of praising what a technological feat this is, people are like "it draws just as good as me in less than 60 seconds?!?! REEEEE!"🙄🤦♂️
Edit: lol. I expressed this poorly. I meant to say that while it’s not accurate enough yet to have almost any question in the world answered in just a few seconds, but I’m willing to bet within 5 years accuracy will be close to, if not better than traditional search engines.
Leaving my original dumbassery up. Everyone says stupid shit at some point. And some say stupid shit more than others. I’m probably the latter.🤷♂️😬
Results are inconclusive because a lack of research.
A lack of research doesn’t equal a lack of total existence. Just because they don’t have enough to go on, doesn’t mean it’s not a thing.
The brain still isn’t fully understood anywhere in the world and those who say it is, are lying.
The fact is, behavior is one of the worst “Illnesses” to treat and if the symptoms align and are treated the exact same way and the behavior never goes away or can be effectively fixed, then what exactly is the difference?
Am I going to shun someone that has experienced the same things as me but the reasons they experience these things are different? No. That doesn’t add up.
