The Dictionary Of My Heart...

There are no words to describe, the beauty that is me. Imperfections, flaws, and silliness don't define what I could be. The things I like, the books I read, the movies that I see. The cloths I wear, music I hear; Those these don't make me "Me". The crinkle on my forehead, the dimple on my cheek. My height, my smile, my hair, They just provide a peek... One day I'll figure me out, One day the world will see; Until then Ill just be happy, Living life as Valerie

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

When a person with ADHD complains of severe anxiety, I recommend that the clinician not immediately accept the patient’s label for her emotional experience. A clinician should say, “Tell me more about your baseless, apprehensive fear,” which is the definition of anxiety. More times than not, a person with ADHD hyperarousal will give a quizzical look and respond, “I never said I was afraid.” If the patient can drop the label long enough to describe what the feeling is like, a clinician will likely hear, “I am always tense; I can’t relax enough to sit and watch a movie or TV program. I always feel like I have to go do something.” The patients are describing the inner experience of hyperactivity when it is not being expressed physically.

At the same time, people with ADHD also have fears that are based on real events in their lives. People with ADHD nervous systems are consistently inconsistent. The person is never sure that her abilities and intellect will show up when they are needed. Not being able to measure up at the job or at school, or in social circles is humiliating. It is understandable that people with ADHD live with persistent fear. These fears are real, so they do not indicate an anxiety disorder.

holy SHIT

Ooo okay, I really wanted to know what the source of this was and it’s Additude magazine, a 2021 last-updated-in-2021 article here titled Why Anxiety Disorder Is So Often Misdiagnosed.

I know I vibed with this quote and saw others do so in the tags so I thought a source would be helpful.

My husband was given a questionnaire when they were doing my ADHD assessment and one of the questions was about my ability to relax. He basically said “This woman can’t relax.” And told my Dr that basically if I’m sitting down watching a TV show or something and she’s doing five other things. I have to force her to relax and take things off her plate so she won’t do them.“

Honestly I think that’s why he cooks for me most of the time bc even though cooking is a lot of work and I love cooking, it’s something big he can do that’s easy to check off.

When you meet someone and they manage to quiet the whirlwind of a hurricane that has been raging inside of you for most of your life- that's when you know you've found your person, because you will come to know a calm and peacefulness you have never known before.

Hold onto that person and never let them go, even if you have to sacrifice everything to keep them with you.

Do you ever go for a walk and everywhere you look you see God? In the leaves, the gravel, the clouds, the grass. In the people walking by, and in their dogs who strain their lead trying to greet you. In the puddles left by rain, in the lingering petrichor, in the cool air flowing into and out of your lungs. Everywhere, everything- all Him.
