Ah yes, another self diagnosed ADHD trait. It’s just so quirky, amirite?!?
I hate seeing so many people stating they have ADHD while they have just self diagnosed it without consulting any doctor. People actually having ADHD suffer from these kind of people because everyone thinks it’s funny, quirky and cool to have.
Sorry for the rant, I took more time to write this then I wanted 😵💫
Y’know, you’re breaking HIPAA by talking about this online.
Oh wait, you’re not her doctor? Then how exactly do you know anything about this?
Yeah there’s human quirks and there are quirks turned up to 11 so they’ve become something else.
I’m really tired of randoms using psychological jargon without any training, and I’m just some dumbass in therapy with no actual skills.
“The Body Keeps the Score says…” STFU I AM WORKING WITH AN ACTUAL PROFESSIONAL
@chief_chef @Martineski maybe money problem. I cant wait to go to the doc.

I’ve fucking read the relevant chapters of the DSM V more times than she has. This isn’t the dark ages, this is the information age. Stop gatekeeping knowledge, bitch.

Same. I was diagnosed with OCD decades ago but yet I seem to have these sorts of tendencies as well.
Everyone has some of the traits, but they don’t have ADHD unless it has enough negative impact to be a disorder.
The problem being a lot of people with it might think the negative impact is a personal failing.
Plus it raises the question of people who would otherwise be said to have it but have developed successful coping mechanisms independently, but what else are you going to do for something you can’t physically test for?
Obviously the real solution is never talking to anyone ever again, instead living as a hermit in remote mountains with your only friend being a bear that tries to eat you several times a year
Nah. I just say. Yeah that was a dead end. But now I discovered this new thing that…
I’ve had so many hobbies, sadly I know the feeling well.
Anyone want a battery operated coin sorter?
