▲ 15 r/ADHD

Actually hitting my breaking point with this shit !! why the hell does ADHD exist!!!

Its embarassing having to explain to people that I cannot go to my society events (that has a memebership activity requirement) because im feeling unwell - not as in im sick, but im feeling tired because I procrastinated my assessments so i feel like shit and im failing all my classes and i just need a break from socialising. Theyre the nicest people and so understanding but its just so!!!

how do i explain this -- its like theyre the type of people to wake up at 8am everyday and sleep at 11, and have a claendar/study schedule they follow ykwim? While I can barely look after myself - rememebering to eat, drink, take breaks going to the bathroom is already enough effort and then i have to study and commute and do shit i actually cant anymore

Im so glad im diagnosed now so its easier to say "my medication is literally not working rn" (it isnt) rather than saying oh i forgot/oh im tired because i procastinated (sounds like i dont care). However there are other people who also have adhd that somehow manage all this shit... like how 😞 how are you doing this?? unmedicated too? im gonna cry.

um yeah sorry just doing my assessment and crashing out because my sleep has been terrible the past 5 days and I still have to take ritalin to do my work which makes me nauseous after 2 hours but I gotta take it bc this assessment is already overdue!!! and i have to wake up at 8 :30 tomorrow which isnt bad but i ltierally sleep at 12:30 everyday and may have sleep apnea

Somebody in my lecture unexpectedly sat next to me and we talked. They remind me of somebody I used to know who I admired but we fell apart bc of moral/ political disagreement.

Personally I have very high standards and don’t easily get crushes like ever, to the point I think I’m probably aroace in some way. But meeting this person idk. I actually get butterflies in my stomach . There’s some things I don’t agree with with this person so I’m 100% not idealising them but idk omggg bro i lowkey barely have my life together i actually can’t afford to think abt this person it’s just so fun being around them.

There’s also this issue where sometimes i get excited meeting new people (even platonically) but over the course of a few weeks the excitement goes away and I’m lowkey scared this will happen too with this person. There’s no way I want a relationship but UGHHHHH
