Feeding yourself with ADHD is hell because if I don't take my medication, I'm hungry but I keep getting distracted and can't focus long enough to eat an actual meal and if I DO take my medication then I have enough focus to cook, but I also have zero appetite and hyperfocus on other things instead of eating.

A surprisingly well written statistics book I've bought recently 💡

I've started to really enjoy learning about statistics once I could do it at my own pace and with the sources I've chosen! 📚

I *really* love my job sometimes 🧫🧬 and I'm so grateful there are people who believe in me enough to trust me with their projects even though my academic performance always suffered in the past because of undiagnosed adhd & poor mental health 💖

I'm such a dummy for REFUSING to buy an iPad all these years, it's such a time-saver for annotating lectures/papers! (apple sponsor me pls) ✨🪴📚

also debating whether to start the 100 days of productivity thing since I tend to be a die-hard perfectionist and will just feel bad if I miss a day 😿

despite the still ongoing construction in our apartment I'm sooo happy how the plant space turned out! (ikea clothes rack + hanging planters + some fake vines) 🦎🌿🪴
