How Many Breads Have You Eaten In Your Life? @bagebag - Tumblr Blog

posting on twitter feels like throwing something you worked on for hours, days, weeks into a river, hoping it'll get swept out to sea for many people to experience, only for it to immediately crash into some rocks and explode. its gone now. if no one sees it in the 0.00003 seconds it exists on their timelines, no one ever will

posting on tumblr is like carefully placing your work in the middle of a dark abandoned factory, and slowly a bunch of weird little goblins manifest from the shadows and touch your work all over with their little raccoon hands and share it with each other. sometimes they find your thing again many years later and excitedly share it again

the weird goblins are much more enjoyable

October is ADHD awareness month! 🎉

The memory issues ADHD causes are some of the scarier and more frustrating parts of living with it - so here’s a set of reaction doodles that all my fellow ADHD peeps are welcome to use whenever anybody decides to comment on your forgetfulness ^

ADHD nukes your working memory.

If it isn’t part of a hyperfixation its hard to store the details. 😅💕

It gets especially bad for routine things, because you can’t tell if your memory of doing the thing was from today or yesterday or last week, and that can lead to some dangerous situations such as, say, skipping/overdosing on medication. I have to write down the date when I take my meds in the morning because the first time my memory messed up my medication I was terrified, I had to go with risking skipping because risking overdosing can get real bad real fast

OMG the medication thing I do that all the time.

I actually risk overdosing because I can’t drive behind the wheel without my medication.

My zone outs are more akin to black outs.

Like I’ll completely zone out and not only not remember what I did but there will be a complete time skip between when I first zoned out and when I came back to reality.

And sometimes I’ll do weird shit on auto pilot during these.

Like I once stuck a bag of lettuce in my bed, had no memory of it.

Went to sleep and my foot touched something wet and I flipped the fuck out till I realized it was lettuce.

I dont experience that when I take my ADHD meds.

The memory thing really messes with you.

Okay this is my second attempt writeing this because I accidentally reblogged it to the ectoberhaunt blog and had to delete it.

But no you are not stupid.

Your brain is wired diffrent.

ADHD is a disorder of the frontal lobe.

It affects all of these listed areas.

It’s not just “not being able to focus or being too hyper”.

It’s also a dopamine deficiency.

You can’t make tonic dopmine.

In laymen’s terms.

You can only get dopmine in short spurts by doing certain things.

This is why so many people ADHD struggle with Addictive personalities and turn to drugs or alcohol to self-medicate.

Which is bad.

This is what dopmine does.

And being fucking understimated is horrid.

You ever feel so board and so empty and helpless that you’d rather die?

That’s a classic symptom.

That’s why people with ADHD are 5 times more likely to kill themselves.

THIS is why ADHD awareness month is important.

It broke my heart that so many people with ADHD reblogged my posts not even realizing we have a month.

You deserve to understand you have a disorder that drastically impacts your life.

You deserve access to medication, and good doctors, and good resources, and managment skills.

You deserve to understand that you have probably been horribly abused or gas lit by the people in your life that dont understand your struggle because they never stopped to try too.

You deserve to understand that you are not stupid.

You were never stupid.
