Really bad tinnitus today. Couldn't sleep. Getting out of bed for rhythm is a struggle.

@ArtBear
As I scrolled through, I read the package as: "My Butter is Stolen"
No idea what happened there, brain 😆

Also, reminder to move laundry into dryer! 😁

At what point in life do you stop buying games, even though you only play the same 2-3 games over and over? 🤔 :blobsheep:​

I have found medication that works for me, and here's my interesting (and surprising) observation:

It doesn't remove ADHD, it empowers it.

This comic has been circulating for some time and it describes how I feel really well.

The author is Toivo Kaartinen, and although they don't have any personal handle online that I can refer to, they are also the author of the web comic "Foxes In Love"

amberhearts,

@osric Yeah, it feels backwards at first:
"ADHD is a disability, it should be treated"

But what if, and hear me out on this one; We realize that ADHD is actually a strength in the right circumstances, and people with it can actually do really good if those conditions are met?

Neurodivergent people are important in society, it's just sad that society has mostly been built to reject us :ramSad:​

amberhearts,

@ljrk Wait-lists are terribly long, but at the same time you won't get there unless you've signed yourself onto that wait-list 🙂

Not to scare you off or anything, but it took me about two years or so to get my diagnosis after a specialist referred me onto the list. This is Sweden however, and depending on where you are in the world it might be better or worse.

But if you can, go for it! Worst case nothing happens, but best case it helps you realize more of who you are, your needs and how to live better 🧡

If you have , give this song a listen... You'll recognize it as the sound of your own brain

hey you you're losing your vitamin D

amberhearts,

@miunau
Aww chucks, has my vitamin permit expired again? :<<

amberhearts,

@miunau
Haha, never heard of these until I looked them up xD
But yes, that sure will help my vitamin deficiency

Whenever I get the urge to do a "thing" I, without fail, end up in choice paralysis mode.

Do I,

a) finally start actually learning how to use Godot

b) start practicing my drawing and digital painting skills

or c) write that manifesto on the latest thing I'm hyper-fixating about.

but then I just short circuit, feel stupid, and do nothing. Not even play a game in my ever increasing backlog.


amberhearts,

@mic
I feel the exact same thing Mic
That precise list of things is something that could apply to me as well, 100%

I have no idea how to combat that choice paralysis, but you're not alone with that feeling

Sending hugs your way 🧡

Without context and google searches, what do you think this place is about? 🤔🤔🤔

First attack is actually directed towards someone on here! @Meddy

When I browsed their OCs and saw that Merys had a wind-up key in the back I just had to go for it ;w; That's too cool/cute to pass up!

It was very fun to do ^w^ Onto the next!

amberhearts,

@Karb_Derg ;www; Awwwww that's so sweet! Thank you!!!
Hell yeah, thanks for the dopamine :D 🧡🧡🧡

"steep for 3 minutes, no more, no less" this tea packaging is giving me anxiety

amberhearts,

@miunau
I'm awaiting the follow up post that will occur in a minute from now x3

amberhearts,

@miunau
Aww, better luck next time 😔😔😔

Man, can you imagine having a job and be able to afford more than just living expenses again? :blobsheepeyes: That's kind of hype

amberhearts, to random

So, the job interview went well!

Now I need to nail the practical job test coming up in a week or two and cross my hooves they like me enough :blobsheep:

amberhearts,

@Karb_Derg
Will still do software development, just another company ^^

My previous workplace is overstaffed, and I would have to sit on the bench waiting for work opportunities while being low priority because of my burnout

amberhearts, to random

I have two social modes :blobsheep:

  • "I love my own company and I don't have to rely on anyone for that >:D"

  • "I need someone to hang out with me, I can barely motivate myself to get out of bed :'<"

  • Note to self:
    Mastodon web client enforces wide aspect ratio of videos even if they're not wide
    Also, they don't respect the focal point setting and centers the view
  • The take away: Always upload wide content

In other words, some people might just see Amber's butt spinning around, which is quite funny to me :blobsheep:

amberhearts, to random

Drawing on the wrong layer~

amberhearts,

@Karb_Derg I'm just a "didn't save, software crash" away from it now :D
