It’s okay to start the day later than expected. You can still do things, and if you needed to start later in order to take care if yourself or weren’t feeling well, starting at all is a win. 🌸

Ppl without ADHD be like “oh if I get rid of all possible distractions then you’ll be forced to focus on the boring task!” Fool… You underestimate my Power 

[sushinfood]

My partner: dear it’s time to get up

Me: but distractions

Partner: I have removed them

Me: sleeps

[immarainbowpatooie]

Person: we have removed all possible distractions

Me: but have you considered this?

Me: *zones out and daydreams*

[quinintheclouds]

Person: I have removed all distractions so you can do [insert task]

Me: *chuckles* Silly neurotypical. So naïve… Don’t you see? I AM the distraction.

[siderealsandman]

The distraction is coming from inside the house

That’s cuz this is the exact opposite of what you wanna do with ADHD. If you take away all input your brain is going to shut down. It has nothing to do. You need to find the right passive secondary input that will allow your brain to function enough to start what you need to start. What counts is different for everyone. Snacking, White noise, music, stim toys, podcasts, wiggling. A thing that will give you stimulation but isn’t enough to totally satisfy it so your brain wants to do more. Then you push yourself to do the task because your brain finally has all the pieces it needs to function.

Don’t force yourself into focusing the same way a neurotypical does. It will only hurt you. Find new ways that work for your neurotype.

i know you’re finding life hard at the moment, but you’re doing amazingly. you can and will get through this

[recoverr-a-deactivated20210530]

you deserve people who listen to you ramble. you deserve people who love it when you’re excited, when you’re happy. you deserve people who check up on you and wish to see you well, people who not only accept you for who you are - but rejoice in it.

Day 22 - Nocturnal

[draconym]

Naturalists have got to be one of the groups of people most susceptible to being tricked by the fae. Travellers these days are much less likely to follow a mysterious light or the smell of roast beef into the forest. Meanwhile, find me a naturalist who would not completely lose themself in pursuit of:

An unidentifiable bird call

A butterfly that’s slightly off-color

An opossum with its head stuck in a yogurt tub

A really big woodpecker

[gallusrostromegalus]

The Fae better be fuckin ready to be tagged and fitted with a Radio Collar for Science then, I got new hiking boots and no other ideas for research grant money.

For some of us, we have entered darker times as in it gets dark outside around 17.00. This can under normal circumstances be a big change and affect our daily mood and energy level. Now we can add a pandemic on top of that. I want you to know that it is okay if you struggle or if you’re struggling more than you normally would. Try to see if you can create small pockets of joy, whether that’s putting up fairy lights or taking the time to go for a walk with someone or rereading your fave book. (if you celebrate christmas and love decorations, put them up a little sooner than normally). I also want you to know that it is okay to feel this way and that it will pass again, that can be hard to remember even when you’re used to it, but that knowlegde might be extra hard if you are new to this. Plan things you can look forward to and catch as much daylight as you can, and yes being near an open window counts. Reach out to a friend and remember to be social in whatever way it is safe and possible. If there is something you started doing during this pandemic that you found worked good for you, but you kinda stopped at some point: Try to pick it up again. This too shall pass, hang in there, you are not alone. 🌸
