Chaotic Macademia

they/them * INFP * no brain just juice, 23,

[chaoticmacademia]

First time taking adhd meds:

I made phone calls and sent messeges that needed to be done

My kitchen has never been so spotless since i started to live here

There is this sense of relief in me

Music might hit even better, (or its just the sense of relief and accomplishement i feel when im listening to music and doing the needed tasks)

Transitions are easy. I think of it and then i do it. I took out the trash without needing to find a part for it in this huge logic puzzle of daily tasks

I am sweaty (but its 32 °C and im wearing long jeans and socks..)

I feel less anxiety and guilt

My make-up looks fire (probably unrelated but fel like bragging about it haha)

Thinking about how much this would have helped when i was writing my thesis... :(

Asexuality is being like the only person around a bunch of dogs, who go crazy when they hear a high frequency noise that your human ears are unable to pick up on.

The asexual (and enby) urge to be a vampire gnawing on your crush's arm

Y’know, it’s getting real tiring seeing all the study aesthetic accounts post the same things over and over. Overpriced planners, fancy equipment, delicate literature, cliché quotes, diluted palettes.

Show me the broke students. Show me the ones whose stress isn’t conventionally attractive. Show me the dollar tree notebooks and 10+ year old technology that can barely run the bare essentials. Show me the beat up books with cheap post-its and neon yellow highlighter. Show me the cramped closet or kitchen table you use. Show me the unfiltered pictures from that old phone you’ve never upgraded.

Show me what academia really is. Put the color in the picture, the vibrancy of personal drive when everyone around you fits in a monochrome pinterest board.

I’ll give my own example.

I’m disabled and currently unemployed so getting a degree is not quite the picture yet. I have a passion for theology, so over the years I’ve collected all my media from places like goodwill or garage sales. I communicate on discord, not zoom or linkedin. I mend my decade-old clothes when years of laundering thins and tears the fabric.

This is my study spot. In a place with roommates where the attention has to be shared, I’ve made my room my safe corner, where I can hide away from the stress of small-talk and pour my heart into my love of knowledge.

I cook my cheap meals and I clean my living space and I have trouble sleeping over the whys in life, looking out the window at the brown November street corner. Takeout is a luxury, friends are few but fond, and my notes would get more comments than likes on social media.

I know you’re out there. Let’s be friends!

I am currently taking notes of my 3 lectures in the same spiral notebook i used to use for geography in high school (i wasn't very invested in geography) not because I don't have other notebooks, but this is what works with my brain at the moment. At least i have notes. Yeyy

I also sometimes shorten words or expression with the japanese kanji, or in an other language because i just can't remember the hungarian one.

Grammar? Spelling? I hardly know them!

Doodles are a great way to remember pictures and connect with the information.

I often go to the library, because it helps me to see other people working too.

Or i start reading papers about gender in japanese theatre at 9 pm, because thats when my brain clicks and wants to do work.

Studying doesn't have to be aesthetic. It just has to work for you. As long as you're organised (in your own way), do the reading, do the homework and still have some kind of sanity at the end of the day, you are doing amazing!

Is this chronological?

[bitchfitch]

writing advice for characters with a missing eye: dear God does losing an eyes function fuck up your neck. Ever since mine crapped out I've been slowly and unconsciously shifting towards holding my head at an angle to put the good eye closer to the center. and human necks. are not meant to accommodate that sorta thing.

[bitchfitch]

other things I'm bitching about but which could still be useful as writing advice for 1 eyed characters:

2. they're going to favor their sighted side, obviously, but it doesn't always manifest in the way you think. when I walk down a hall I walk much closer to the wall on my sighted side than on my blind side. which is the opposite of how it might seem logical to do that bc it means the world at large is on your bad side, but the reason is I can't fucking See the wall if it's right next to me in the blind side and I end up knocking into it.

3. door frames and poles are my enemy. If your character is smart this will not be a problem but for me it is. I am King of walking into shit I could absolutely see but couldn't tell how far away from me it was. on this note, their blind side hand is getting bashed into every jutting out thing in a 5 mile radius.

4. having 0 depth perception is less of a big deal than you'd think it is. Especially with driving. I've become a Much safer and more wary driver because I can't tell how far the other cars are from me. however I fucking suck at parking now. because I can't tell how far the lines are from me either.

5. you know how people who lose limbs get phantom pains? that happens with eyes too but like. phantom sights. for me it's like. a lot of bugs. like every so often my brain will just put something suddenly skittering beside me there. hate that.

6. it is completely possible to "get stuck" somewhere because your ability to tell how wide a space is is just Gone. shopping isles especially where bumping something or Someone is matter of embarrassment or potentially breaking something. it can be legitimately paralyzing and also irritate everyone around you because they can tell there is Plenty of space for you to get your cart through even if you can't.

7. if the eye is still in their skull it can still be the normal kind of painful. Glares off of shiny surfaces causing weird sharp pains you can't figure out the cause of are genuinely one of gods greatest tests of my patience.
