THIS IS WHY I BARELY DO ANYTHING DIGITAL. THIS IS WHY.
I spent FOUR HOURS OF MY LIFE creating an AMV. FOUR STRAIGHT HOURS. 105 HAND-DRAWN FRAMES. And my laptop crashes WHILE SAVING IT and the data gets corrupted.
Shit is SO ADHD unfriendly.
I have to save after I do every single little thing??? If the file gets too big it’ll crash while saving??? I fucking HATE TECHNOLOGY.
Literally have the urge to smash shit right now I am so pissed off.
This is why my youtube only has like, a 3 second animation posted every 6 months. This shit ALWAYS happens to me when I finally have the motivation. This DRAINS THE MOTIVATION FROM ME ENTIRELY. I literally want to cry right now.

it's all "normalize not being ok" this and "mental health matters" that, but when i refuse to brush my teeth, shower, or change my clothes for 3 weeks straight, suddenly i'm weird. so much for the tolerant left.

Hey so like. I don't know about y'all, but getting diagnosed with adhd, taking prescription meds, and adding variety to my daily activities has actually improved my mental health.
I'm the happiest I've been in years, getting the mental stimulation and doing light physical labour, and my last couple of university assignments got scores that impressed me. I wrote the dang things, had gotten relatively good scores for other assignments for years before, but when I submitted each of this semester's assignments I thought 'I didn't try as hard as I usually do. I'm barely going to pass. I've gotta expect difficulty from this higher lever course.'
And then my grades came back and I'd smashed both assignments. Nailed them. They weren't 100%-ers but damn, I couldn't stop smiling at the grading.
And I felt like I hadn't tried hard enough. Because I hadn't pushed my brain to the point of chest-trembling anxiety, or the high-strung burnout, which would normally work for me in the past.
I was able to pace myself, stay focused on the tasks, and complete things before the deadline.
I'm just... So happy.

“Don’t let your disorder define you”
Okay but do you support the people whose disorders do define them?
Do you support people with the chronic illnesses who have had to develop whole lives around their conditions? Do you support the intellectually disabled people whose whole way of thinking is defined by their disorder? Do you support the people with personality disorders who literally have a disorder as a personality? Do you support the autism/ADHD people whose disorder you can’t separate from who they are? Do you support the DIDOSDD people who have multiple definitions of themselves because of their disorder?
Or are you just saying that because a disorder defining someone means you can’t ignore it.

Neurodivergent reminder: Overstimulation feels a lot like anxiety, and understimulation feels a lot like depression.
More importantly, you don't need to know which it is to practice self-care.
Self-caring anxiety and overstimulation looks the same:
Recognize you're feeling big feelings
Take as many deep breaths as your need to slow your mind
Identify what’s causing the feeling, whether sensory, environmental, or situational
Minimize that cause as much as possible immediately
Self-caring depression and understimulation looks the same:
Recognize you’re in need of stimulation
Turn on an interesting long-form video of some kind
Do some quick exercise like a walk or jumping jacks
Call a friend that'll let you infodump
If you're neurodivergent and easily get stuck on labelling things — I see you.
I'm here to remind you that you don't need to know what it is to take care of it in the meantime.
You can — will — figure it out later.

Fuck, man. Neurodivergent love. I’m never going to get over it. Depression love says “I will do my best to stay for you.” DID/OSDD love says “Every face of this brain is endeared to you.” Autism love says “I will do anything to reach you, to give you the understanding I never got.” BPD love says “You are a vital organ of mine, and I am one of yours.” Bipolar love says “Wherever I may go, I will come back to you.” Post-traumatic love says “I will always show you gentleness in this reckless world.” ADHD love says “I will try for you, no matter the obstacle.” Anxiety love says “You are my safe space and I am yours.” ASPD love says “I choose to, on purpose, for you.” OCD love says “I will stand guard for you.” Neurodivergent love. Neurodivergent love. Different brains in love, oh my G-d. These colors are uncountable and they are my religion.

One thing (among many) that people need to keep in mind when they say things like "oh if you think you have a mental disorder, consult a professional" is that a lot of professionals will not consider evaluating and/or diagnosing you with something you bring up yourself. Especially the more uncommon/complex the disorder is. For things like MDD or GAD you likely won't have that problem, for things like OCD or ADHD they'll likely be suspicious but still comply somewhat, but for things like personality disorders or DID most professionals will completely brush you off and refuse to evaluate you. Because they think you're attention seeking and diagnosis shopping, and that you couldn't possibly have it, even if you haven't done anything to earn that suspicion.
For disorders like that, unless the professional themselves suspects you have it and comes up with that idea themselves, good luck getting evaluated at all. Especially when it comes to disorders most professionals don't even think they'll encounter, like SzPD or DID.
It'd be nice if we lived in a world where you could go see a psych, say "hey I think I have this", and they'd do a proper and fair evaluation for you the way a physical doctor would (moreso should but that's another can of worms).
It just isn't as simple as "ask a professional".

my headcanon is that the entire emeritus bloodline is neurodivergent. that is all.
nihil - adhd-c, asd
primo - hpd, asd
secondo - adhd-i, aspd
terzo - adhd-hi, bpd
bonus:
copia - asd

it's that time of the semester, when I wait for a week before the due date before actually putting effort into an assignment.
either I've reached half the word count on rambling alone, or the counter has I closed my reference list and I'm screwed. We shall see.

Sending my love to the neurodivergents who fit common stereotypes.
Those with OCD who are obsessive about cleaning.
Those with NPD who can be manipulative and controlling.
Those with Autism who have "childish" interests and/or behavioural manners.
Those with BPD who are unhealthily possessive over their loved ones/FP and can be the toxic one in relationships.
Those with ADHD who bounce off the walls.
Along with everyone else. You deserve a space to heal and grow just as much as the rest of us do.
