Living all of my tween and teen years obsessively liking people and getting heart broken over a month’s worth of crushes but never lasting longer than a month in any relationship made me think I’m a weak and stupid attention seeking slut. Turns out I just have ADHD and I hyper focus on people 🫠

Are you really an ENTP or do you just have high functioning ADHD?

You can’t have ADHD, I know you you’re academically successful!

Said a psychiatrist friend of my sister. Well, you have no idea how hard I try and how much it drains me do you???? Do you know how frustrated I get when I have to ride the same metro 3 times because I continued to miss my station? Or how it feels when your friends call you irresponsible because you keep forgetting to bring the hoodie you borrowed for 6 months straight? No you don’t. 

I hyperfixated on the 2nd year of med school and got a GPA of 4.0/4.0, and she says you couldn’t have. You should have taken extremely risky steps because you should be impulsive. Well you have no idea how annoying it gets to talk with my ADHD father because we both can’t listen to each other more than 3 seconds, do you? 

Oh it happens sometimes in med school, there are times that you will not be able to focus you say, well then can you explain why I start studying an extremely important exam at 1 am the night before? Can you explain why I can’t just get my self to sit in front of my table and study when I know I have to, can you explain why I feel such guilt when I can’t? Can you explain why I feel overwhelmed about the thoughts in my head because I think everything at once and it’s impossible to listen to myself? 

HIGH FUNCTIONING ADHD EXISTS AND IT DOESN’T MAKE THE STRUGGLE MORE TOLERABLE.

Just because you’re afraid I will get addicted to my drugs doesn’t give you the right to make me feel I am just lazy, irresponsible and careless.

 How to explain that caffeine does absolutely nothing for me bc I have low functioning ADD without mentioning that I would probably be okay even doing cocaine/ meth bc people always look at me funny…

hello this is your admin here, i was gonna delete this due to the functioning labels used but decided its a good chance to Share A Lesson with you all

functioning labels don’t mean anything!! there is no such thing as a low or high functioning disorder. this goes for adhd, autism, anxiety, depression, and anything else you can think of!! further, they are also actively harmful to everybody who has that disorder. to put it simply, “high-functioning” is used to deny support. “low-functioning” is used to deny agency. 

i’ll be linking below some sources that talk about this more in case you don’t quite get it yet or if you’re interested in learning more about it (i’m pretty sure they all refer to the use of them with autistic people but it still applies to any disorder, since i’m seeing this pop up more and more with non-autism things lately)

I think about this at least once a day and I have been formally diagnosed.
