35 and still have these walls between me and the simplest tasks. No idea if it’s ADHD, but somehow I manage to get through.
true, but also – 46
My former doctor: “Ya. You probably have ADHD but you’re fine. You’ve learned to cope with it.”
Me: Drinking half a bottle of Jim Beam every night to “cope”.
Side note: nice seeing you around again Stamets. The meme quality was suffering in your absence.
Narrator: they were not fine
Heard that before. “Learned to cope” does not mean “Is coping healthily” you asshats.
And thanks buddy <3
40
it’s not a bidding lol
Price is Right rules?
50 I’m not going higher
oh you are
Looks at the state of the world.
You sure about that?
you’re gonna keep living, it’s just gonna be less fun
Not if it’s not more fun than a 12ga slug. Not even meaning this in a depression way, I’ll keep working for and looking towards a better future. But when shit really hits the fan I’m not going to be starving to death in a ditch because of environmental collapse or becoming an actual slave to a facist regime. The way I see it, there’s worse things than a quick death.
ever see “comic book confidential”?
“if you are going down in flames, hit something big.”
This one hits hard…
I’m autistic, so it’s not a one-for-one; but some similarities to ADHD, and what’s worked for me, is exercise.
Walk 10000 steps a day and go to the gym 3 days a week and lift as heavy as you can.
Use the GZCLP program and you’re golden.
Plus, you get healthier AND you’ll look better naked.
yeah ill get to that tomorrow thanks
+1 for GZCLP. Of all the beginner programs out there, this one resonates best with everyone I’ve introduced it to.
Got a link?

Fuck don’t say this, I’m 30
Imagine going untreated even a decade after that
Yeah, I fucking wish I was only 30.
I’d be one ugly 30 year old if I were 30
Is there anything you wish you did when you were 30?
Buy bitcoin.
Dude, I knew so early about it, people were just giving them away. I thought it was a scam, still do but I could have been the beneficiary of the scam instead of just a passive observer.
same. i had a friend that was going to pay me 2 bitcoins to drive him 20 minutes to check out a car and then back if he didn’t buy it. i decided that i would just do it for free because we were friends and i didn’t want to figure out the wallet stuff. woops.
50
Erm, embarrassingly older.
Nah, I think this is a no embarrassment zone. Get cozy.
Me too. Son’s dyslexic and I’m noticing a lot of ADHD traits in him. And it all reminds me a lot of how I was and it just explains a lot of the things in my life. Just got to get around to finding a therapist for him and me…
I’m going through all the stuff with all of my kids. I just started the diagnosis process last week for myself. I just thought all of this was normal and getting old.
I was 30 fucking 25 years ago.
The best part is being 53 and still totally believing it every single day. I’m going to absolutely crush tomorrow!!!
Haha. High five (10 times and then high three). 1971 babies unite! (…tomorrow).
I think this every single day when my alarm wakes me for Gym.
I’m gonna do my meditation via the monroe institute tapes… starting… uhhh… in five minutes
34! I was hoping one day I’d figure out what to do in life and through that knowledge everything would just click into place and things would feel good and right and worth doing. Turns out the answer to life’s great mystery is amphetamine.
But damn does pharmaceutical smack make life worth living or what. If only I hadn’t spent nearly 30 years digging myself into a hole before I started it.
Word.
yep, but ADHD is not a disability. Right? Everyone is sometimes unorganized or slacks around for a day…
/s just to be extra sure.
✨✨ It’s a super power! ✨✨
