I have to thank this site for many years ago allowing me to research and ask questions about sexuality and race. Even if some interactions of me asking questions were offensive. I didn’t know then and I know now. I have evolved. I was always pro- LGBTQ and everything under sun but I was uneducated. I still have a long ways to go. But my undergrad degree is in education my grad degree is in student affairs and one day I’ll have my PHD. I love studying and learning about inclusivity. So thank you for space on this site to ask inappropriate questions and then to read informative explanations.

Heres the tea that I need to share: Reading ACOTAR series right… I’m slightly frustrated at the fanfic Tik Tok becauese know sees how Feyre had the dark dreamer all along. For instance, she had built a wall of survival when she was just human living in mortal lands. Every day was live or die but she had to harden in a way (trauma). Then in spring court before and after the mountain they kept trying to paint as someone who was happy. Idk how to explain…I just know the feeling. I’m extrovert, outgoing and no one likes me when I let my dark side show. People don’t like it when I’m truly myself either excited or the mean side. That’s why Rhys was so important. He saw the dark and was not afraid. So circling back, a lot of fan fiction keeps showing Rhys as dark and her as flowers and the light..No…she’s starlight just like the book said..like the moon..vital my darkness is essential to her soul. I need to got write a poem lol

The problem is not that I lose my keys all the time. The problem is that my door is locked or unlocked and needs to be the other way at the moment.

A therapist told me about this other therapist with a client that was always freaked out she left the hair dryer on. Therapist told her to just take the hair dryer with her. Solved. Same with keys.

Some ADHD tips (that might help anyone):

Reminders: If I have to remember to take something with me I put it in front of the door so I' have to physically move it out of the way in order to not take it with me. If I have to remember to do something out of the ordinary like "take out the kitchen trash" or "send text message to friend with info" before I leave the house of office, I put my shoes in a weird place the night before (in my desk chair is a common one). Because I need my shoes to leave and the strangeness of the thing will tell me there's something I have to do.

Keys: make spare keys. One in your wallet/purse/backpack. One at work. I used to have a pair of boots with a pocket and I loved carrying a spare key in it. If I don't have my keys as I'm walking out and need to lock my door, I can use the key in my purse or one attached to my phone.

Put a huge fucking keychain on it. Ever wondered "who wants a keychain that big...?" You do, pal. Sometimes the big ones are coin purses or containers, too, so put some meds in there.

Car keys: less easy to make spares so: get a tracker thingee like apple's air tag and put it on there.

Meds: similar to keys. Keep a set at work, in your bag, in an obvious place beside your monitor.

"I'm supposed to keep my meds out in the open?"

Yeah, fuck anyone who bothers you. But you can also get a cute container for it that's opaque (but I prefer clear/semi-transparent, which I'll talk about in a sec). Just make sure it's a container that will catch your attention and help you remember.

Clear containers. For clothes and anything else you can. People with adhd have a hard time remembering they own something or where something is.

Clear bags: I like using a clear purse because you can look at it and know your keys are in there. Not recommended if your not in a terribly safe area but otherwise so great to know your phone is in there at a glance.

Hello everyone,

I found a little bit of information about ADHD and time blindness on Twitter. I found this a bit helpful and informative so I think many of you will as well. The link to the tweet will be below.

One of my favorite things about having autism/adhd is forgetting a piece of media exists that I absolutely love, so that when I finally remember it exists, I have like two whole brand new seasons to binge

Hello everyone,

I found an article explaining how ADHD appears in girls/women. So I wanted to share it. According to this article:

ADHD symptoms can vary widely, but young girls with the disorder tend to be more inattentive and distracted than hyperactive and impulsive. Research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that boys ages 3 to 7 are more than twice as likely to be diagnosed with ADHD than girls.

That's because teachers and parents are more likely to recognize classroom behaviors and refer young boys for testing, said J. Russell Ramsay, director of the Adult ADHD Treatment and Research Program and a professor of clinical psychology in psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania.

The link to this article will be below in case you all would like to read it.

A national shortage of the drug Adderall has spotlighted a spike in demand for medications that treat the disorder, especially among women.

random ADHD thought of the day.

So... technically speaking senior living facilitys are all also orphanages...

I used to tap a pencil really rapidly against my leg in high school because I suffered and still suffer from ADHD and I had this one teacher who used to snap at me for it because it was really distracting to her.

I later found out that she also had ADHD.

Tips for Executive Dysfunction: Getting Ready

(Just some ideas and stuff that works for me.)

the colors may be a bit of an eyesore but i like them so...

Getting out of bed: the hardest of tasks /hj

Phone on other side of room - Not as much reason to stay in bed if all there is to do is stare at the ceiling. Works better when you're very prone to boredom and can't normally sleep excessively.

Alarm on other side of room - Set an alarm and sit it out of reach before you go to bed for extra encouragement to get up. Works even better if you have housemates and your alarm is something you don't want them to hear. i play sburban jungle

Water?? - Keep a bottle of water by your bed. Nothing else. Just water. Bored? Too bad, all there is to do is drink water. Speedrun desperately needing to pee, and get yourself out of bed and to the bathroom ASAP. Congrats, you got up. (Do NOT do this if you're in a bad enough state of executive dysfunction that you'd consider relieving yourself in the now-empty bottle rather than getting up and going to the bathroom.)

Cold weather, warm clothes - If it's cold in the morning, try sleeping while wearing a coat and warm pants, rather than wearing lightweight pajamas and depending on blankets alone for warmth. Now you can get out of bed without leaving all the warmth behind.

Changing: why is it so cold (i may be anemic)

Assemble outfits the evening before - Use less of your limited mental energy in the morning.

Warm clothes pt. 2 electric boogaloo - Put outfit for next day in your bed the previous night. Consider shoving the clean socks and underwear in the other clothes so they don't get lost in your bed while you're sleeping. Now you have warm clothes to change into. You can even change before you get out of bed for maximum warmth.

Bathroom multitasking - If you didn't change in your bed and need to sit on the toilet, bring your clothes in the bathroom and change there. No point in taking your pants off twice if you only need to do so once.

Miscellaneous

Pill cases - Organize your vitamins and/or medications into pill cases that are labeled for every day of the week. (Do NOT do this if you think there is a risk of intentionally taking too much. Same goes for if the house has extremely high humidity and mildew issues.) Place the pill cases beside a bottle of water for easy taking. They live there now. Sit your next dose on top of the pill container so it's easier to remember to take it later. Lay pill cases in a line by day and put the current pill case at the end of the line once you've taken out the pills for the day. Set a calendar alert to refill the pill cases at the end of the week.

Peer pressure (positive) - Need a quick kick into action and find out easier to do stuff when asked/told? Message a supportive groupchat to ask them to tell you to do a specific task ("someone please bully me into taking a shower" is something i commonly use). Similarly, write a checklist everyone in the house can see, and/or set public reminders for yourself so you have more ways to hold yourself accountable (i'm a fan of discord's yagpdb and its /remindme command).
