Self shaming XD

My side craves order. Bookshelves neat and tidy. Things put away in logical places.

My ADHD side is a Chaos Goblin lord of misrule !

He suddenly decided that I had about two dozen Iomega Zip disks (both 100mb and 250mb varieties) that I hadn't looked at for a while (ie since late 1990's / early 2000's)

Those I found no problem. MY USB 250MB ZIP drive however? I couldn't find. I went to the annex. Picked a storage box i was SURE it was in. Brought it to my office, open, search, no joy.

What i SHOULD have done was repack box, take BACK to annex, get next box.

But what I did was grab next box from annex, practically dump contents on my office, get side tracked by other "treasures" , rinse and repeat.

Still haven't found my USB Iomega drive. But now I've practically trashed my office and Autistic me is freaking out XD

Self shaming like this image will actually let me do something about this and tidy up!!!

Relay are impartial and type exactly what the DWP say and you, and say exact what you write. So you have a written record or the conversation. Another benefit of typing I find because of my AuDHD is that distractions are removed, and I can reread what has been said. I would like to have the ability to print the written record so that you can say that it was not changed. As present you can only copy paste the transcript. I would like timestamps too, for start and every paragraph. Also the start and end, and all words. Right now this no way to tell how long the conversation took. Even without this, this free service for disabled people to access any phone customer service gives the both access and protection we need. Thank BT.

                    Taas vaihteeksi kun heräsin adhd pörinään, tuli mieleen mitä psykologi sanoi kun se minulla diagnosoitiin pari vuosikymmentä sitten. Silloin en vielä itse ollut perehtynyt tai tiennyt juuri mitään adhd:sta, aiheesta ei puhuttu näin avoimesti kuin nykyään. Sittemmin olen oppinut, että adhd on hyvin voimakas suvussani, diagnooseja on nuoremmilla monilla ja vanhemmilla polvilla vakaa epäilys, mutta eivät enää koe tarvetta tutkia.

                    Mutta siis psykologi selitti silloin, että adhd on jäänne ihmisen biologisesta historiasta.
                    Kun elämä oli raadollista ja rankkaa, luontoäiti totesi, että tarvitaan erikoisjoukkoja.
                    Tyyppejä jotka huomaa yksityiskohtia, on valppaampia ja energisempiä. Tyypejä jotka herää pienempäänkin poikkeamaan öisessä äänimaailmassa ja jotka analysoi ja reagoi tilanteisiin alitajuntaisesti ja nopeasti ja myös agressiivisemmin.

                    Yksinkertaistettuna, tehtiin vartijoita, sotureita ja metsästäjiä.

                    Oli toki puhetta negatiivisistakin puolista, jotks korostuvat nykyaikana koska yhteiskunta ei enää tarvitse tämmöistä. Onneksi kokoajan osataan kuitenkin ohjata erikoisuuksiamme hyötykäyttöön muuten. Mutta yhä meitä on paljon vankiloissa ja usein olemme miettineet suvun kesken, että on paljon vanhempien kasvatuksen ja puhtaan moukantuurin ansiota, että en ole yksi heistä. Potentiaalia olisi ollut.

                        A couple of weeks ago I asked for help with eyedrops for my dry eyes due to meds. Even though the tips helped, using the eyedrops was so stressful and the dry eyes so overstimulating that I considered quitting the meds. But I have found a solution that works for me so I want to share it to hopefully help others.

                        I found eye spray on Amazon. You spray it on your eyelids and keep them closed for a couple of minutes. Because the skin of your eyelids is so thin, it gets absorbed into your eyes. And it helps sooo much with the itching and the skin irritations. It’s still there but manageable.

                        A bottle of eye spray and the box.

                              ok so, like probably a lot of people here, i have some fetishes and kinks, and i am neurodivergent (autistic)

                              there's one specific fetish that i'm pretty much obsessed with, i practically always think about when having sexual thoughts, though funnily enough the subject of said fetish i don't like seeing or talking about when it's not in a sexual context (though i assume i wouldn't mind talking about it sexually if it's with someone i trust with it)

                              i was thinking now just randomly and it hit me that maybe it could be a kind of hyperfixation or special interest bc i'm autistic. at least for me i'm pretty sure it is

                              and it got me wondering if autistic/neurodivergent people are more likely to have fetishes or kinks, and if the presence of special interests or fixations or whatever could have an impact. there's most likely proper academic research on this already and i wanna look at it but i also wanna do some independent data collection for fun and to see what it's like in here

                              so! i am now doing totally valid statistics research (i am not a professional). and i need help. please help me!

                              ace people can answer too if they feel like it's valid for them to. some aces like kink or so i've heard so yea go for it

                              yes i know being obsessed with a specific fetish or kink isn't necessarily an indication of a fixation or stuff but like if neurodivergent people are statistically more likely to be obsessed with fetishes i think there might be a correlation maybe. ofc that depends on how many people from each group respond. idk i'm not a statisticsiciologister or something

                                      At the age of 50 I'm just now getting on medicine for ADD. I've suspected I had this for years now. Both my boys are ADHD and, in learning more about it, my wife and I both have said "You know who else this sounds like, right?"

                                      But if you were an A student in the 90s, no school issues, no real discipline problems, no one looked at you as possibly needing help.

                                      That may sound bitter, but I promise I'm not upset. I get it. I didn't think I had anything going on, either. But I've also dealt with decades of thinking I just wasn't disciplined enough, driven enough, didn't care enough, etc. Turns out my brain was working against me.

                                      Anyway, yesterday I went to church and just listened to the sermon, didn't even care about checking my phone or looking up a reference, or anything else I normally would do. No exaggeration to say I could have cried.

                                      Apparently there's a way to shut down the constant noise in my head. Who knew?

                                      And it gives me A LOT more sympathy for my boys.
