The neuroptypicals are asleep, time for funky brain memes! (Pssst: Adhd is not a “one size fits all” condition and not everyone with adhd reacts the same way to the same chemical, but psychoactive drugs like caffeine tends to work differently for us, and for many like me it helps us to focus and calm our brains; which helps getting asleep faster) Image ID under the read more

[Image ID: The image is a digital drawing . A grey-coloured human figure with no notable feature labelled “Random Adult” on the left is yelling “Noooo you can’t drink caffeinated stuff right before going to bed!”. The person on the right answers “Ah ah, ADHD brain go zzzz.” He has white skin and short, messy black hair, sleepy eyes, wears a black hoodie and is holding a blue soda can with “Guarana” written on it.]

Autistic brain vs ADHD brain: fight! I wanted to finish this one before the end of autism acceptance month (which is April for whose of you who don’t know), but a lot of things happened so I had to slow down for a while

If you’re both autistic and ADHD, I’m sure you’re familiar with that feeling, that there’s a war in your brain between sticking carefully to your routine and “fuck it! *unroutines your routine* “ because you need your dose of *~* new things that bring dopamine *~*, and until the conflict gets resolved you physically can’t do anything. ...

[Image ID: A four-panel comic. On the first panel, a character is playing on a nintendo switch: he’s white with short black hair, a dark blue hoodie with the hood on and is wrapped in a vividly coloured blanket. The character is labelled “Autistic brain” and says “Routine is good. Everything happens in the same order, so you don’t need to worry about what’s coming next, or plan a thousand escapes for a thousand situations.”

On the second panel, a character labelled “ADHD brain”, identical to the first character except he’s wearing a black hoodie with “Spooky and kooky” written on it and the hood is off, is saying “I thrive on chaos and crave for adrenaline! Take some food and pack the dog, we’re going on an adventure!”. He's carrying a red backpack on his right hand and holding a dog under his left arm.

On the third panel, we see Autistic Character making a panicked face and shouting “Are you trying to murder me from complications of long-term anxiety?!” at ADHD Character while ADHD is yelling “I’M THE ONE DYING OF BOREDOM HERE!”

On the fourth panel, a third character labelled “Body”, again identical to the two others but wearing a red hoodie, is faceplanting on a sofa. The text “Meanwhile...” appear on top of a text box in which is written “BRAIN.EXE does not respond”. End of image description]
