my absolute FAVORITE part of ADHD is when you're both so completely unmotivated to do anything yet somehow still restless at the same time that it genuinely makes you wanna pull one of these

adhd is hell because if i'm doing something else in class i get told to stop and pay attention but when i try to pay attention i just end up zoning out and not paying attention anyway.

ADHD is one of the most fundamentally misnamed disorders. 

Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Let’s unpack that.

Attention-Deficit. This in of itself is misleading. I, as someone with ADHD, do not have a deficit of attention. What I do have is an extremely hard time choosing where to focus it. I can focus, for hours, with more intensity and more productively than most neurotypical people, but only on things like good books and video games and my writing and wikipedia rabbit holes and music. I cannot focus on things like homework and my job and keeping my room from turning into an absolute hurricane-level disaster and ordering my groceries. It’s not a deficit of attention, the attention is there, it’s just that I do not get to choose where it is focused. 

Hyperactivity. Hyperactivity is a type of ADHD. I have combined type, so I am hyperactive, but my best friend? They have inattentive ADHD. They can sit still, and don’t need to fidget, and they are not hyperactive. But they still have ADHD. Hyperactivity is a type of ADHD, not a fundamental part of it. It’s like calling all cake “chocolate cake” even if some cakes are vanilla. 

My suggestion for a new name? SRDD. Self-Regulation-Deficit Disorder. If you disagree, I’d love to hear why, and if you have another suggestion instead! Just be civil.

as a person with ADHD i find it incredibly suspect when somebody says “oh [character] has ADHD” and they the person who makes the headcanon doesnt actually have it. especially if the character is prodominantly seen as naive or stupid because i know how people who dont have ADHD see people who do have ADHD. ADHD headcanons deserve to be applied to more then just naive and “stupid” characters ADHD people are creative and talented and driven in their own ways their personalities are wide and varied and to assume we cant be be smart , we be cant be leaders, and that we cant be accomplished while having ADHD and that we can only be comic relief or the idiot or the adult child is perpetuating a very harmful stereotype and i for one wont fucking stand for it.
