My therapist: You sound like you're burnt out, have you considered doing less stuff? Me, a person with ADHD: But then I'd risk being bored, and that would be way worse.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but "trying harder" is never going to cure your ADHD.

it is very clear that the vast majority of people still genuinely think that adhd is just a minor annoyance and it’s like no my brain physically never stops, i am unable to do things, i am constantly overwhelmed, it’s not just “no big deal” !!!!!!

If an autistic person tells you “please don’t speak to me like that” it is not an invitation to argue with them as to why the way you’re speaking to them is fine. It doesn’t matter if you feel misunderstood. We are so often on the brink, and just begging not to be shoved off.

Went to an ADHD discussion group about Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (an ADHD symptom where we are more sensitive and feel pain when being rejected) last night, and the main thing I took away was: RSD has a PROFOUND effect on all areas of ADHDers' lives.

Me: don't call people the r word. It's ableist and not cool Society: okay I'll call them a moron Me: no, that's also ableist and not okay Society: well how am I meant to insult people based on their cognitive skills and perceived intellect Me: you're not. That's the point.

Feeling angry and shaken after a terrible experience this morning being assaulted on my way to work. While waiting at a bus stop, someone came up behind me, grabbed my handlebars and pushed me forwards toward the road.

Not seeing yourself represented, leads to a core belief that you’re not capable. Or, that “success” is meant for a specific type of person. Representation is necessary for collective healing.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but ADHD does NOT mean you are hyperactive. Some ADHDers are hyperactive, but there’s a whole other presentation of ADHD called Predominantly Inattentive, which is more common in women and doesn’t look hyperactive at all.
