TIL the top 40 song I've been humming with but absolutely could not make the lyrics out to is in fact "Golden" from Kpop Demon Hunters I need you to understand that for MONTHS I've been attempting to google what I THOUGHT the lyrics were, and I was not remotely close I thought the chorus entry was "We're fallin' in LOVE, LOVE, LOVE-" Audio Processing Disorder Is An Bitch

don't you just hate it when you're busy doing Task and suddenly INSPIRATION strikes and you're like "I must Create RIGHT NOW or I will DIE"

but you can't Create

because you have Task

I make comics because I have bees in my brain and if I stop I will die.

GP practice somehow managed to lose my prescription which means I am currently unmedicated and observing with deep fascination how much of my impulse control has suddenly disappeared

needing to do uni work but wanting to write fiction so of course I’m sat here doing neither

I thought I was late to my appointment at the ADHD clinic but the ADHD clinic knows their clients well and the appointment reminded me to be here at 1:30 when my appointment was actually at 2:00.

Me: oh good I'm actually on time! :)

Me, realizing why and being overcome by the mortifying ordeal of being known: >:/

Oh my god, ADHD medication heat intolerance IS an actual thing? I tried to do research on it and all I could find was vague maybes, like "this may be a side effect" with no details. I've always been sensitive to heat, even as a kid, but since starting my meds (which are helping a lot!) the upper limit is so much lower! I go outside when it's more than 70˚F and I can feel the weight of the sun on my skin. I've been inside or under an umbrella for months, this summer has been a Struggle but I still wasn't sure I wasn't, you know. Making it up.

You're not crazy- poor heat tolerance is a well-known side effect of many ADHD Medications and SSRIs, which are often prescribed alongside ADHD Meds because they make the stimulants more effective, and beacuse having ADHD is depressing AF. Prior to going on Buproprion and Adderall, my heat tolerance was up to 100F, and now it's more like 68F lol.

T/F: You loved playing pretend as a child. (You probably still do, but I can't exactly put two statements in, so...)

TRUE

I was severely ostracized by my peers and teachers as a small child and didn't really have friends of my own until college, and coped by building elaborate inner worlds that were kinder to me :)
