semi-heavy adhd vent tw 🫢🫢
personally of the opinion that the worst thing about adhd is the subtlety. we joke abt how obvious and silly it is but its barely visible 95% of the time.
& u spend your whole life not knowing if the mental struggle you have doing basic shit is what everyone deals with or if something's wrong. even when you KNOW you have adhd and even have it TREATED you STILL don't know if you're having a normal amount of obstacles.
i've been on meds for two years now and i just spent a whole fucking summer semester not sure if i was having adhd burnout or if my meds weren't working or if i was actually just being lazy. i think its all three, but who knows! and now i have a final tomorrow that i have to pass and i dont know if i can because i could barely fucking do any work all semester.
this happens like every year/semester but this one particularly stings cause it was supposed to be really good this time!! lots of free time, one class to worry about, the best nd-friendly note-taking system i've ever used, lots of flexibility, and friends to spend time with. it was even a science class!! chem, not bio, but better than non-science, right? but apparently, the only way i can ever stay motivated and on the ball is if im chained to a super-stressful and merciless schedule. so i have to choose between my long-term success and my mental health!!
i don't envy neurotypicals for the weird fucking ways they operate sometimes but good lord fucking jesus it sounds nice to be able to do things. i feel like a loaded gun with a busted trigger; i have all these amazing ideas and well-thought-out schedules and all the passion and desperation to follow through, but my brain and body just. won't. do it.

im just running on survival mode huh. like the derealization and depersonalization and lack of motivation or passion for anything and need for constant low effort stimulation all so that i can make it through the day without having to face all the shit I'm actually feeling. and i cant do anything because im not in a place where i can face the shit im dealing with

Aight. Screaming into the Void time once again:
I am going to yeet my brain into a pocket dimension, I'm going to strip my soul from this useless flesh suit and use the leftover bones as armor to line my wrath with, the cells in this body fight desperately to keep me alive and yet the synapses in the dumb ball of mental illness jello within my skull desperately demands the opposite.
Emotions are volatile or silenced, to feel them is to be encompassed with an all-consuming suffocating energy that screams for mercy and purpose, to suppress feeling them is to gain a moment to breathe freely in the all encompassing void.
To take care of this hellish body is to find oneself exhausted but alive, doing everything right and yet still picking up broken pieces and chunks every month like clockwork, surviving but not living, there is no rest for bones that have never truely had it, only pain and lead weight for a body that has never been without it.
I am not dying, but I do not feel like I am living. I do not have hope instilled in me, just survival. I do not look toward the future with any feeling, and refuse to return to the past. The present moment grips me like rain under gravity, unyielding and cold but necessary. Absolute.
Years of work I have put into this shambling shell and it's core, and hate that I still feel Grey. I am proud of how far I've come, but aimlessness still haunts me.
Words and pills can only help so far, but it's hard to find lost hope to cling to when you'd never had any hope to lose in the first place.
All I want is to just be at peace with being alive, and neither my brain nor body will grant me even that.

Sure, I can't stop someone from liking southpark, but I can block any southpark iconed users that cross my notifications on sight.
Sure, I can't stop someone from shipping the antisemite toddler with the jewish caricature toddler, but I can block them and every person who liked their shipping fanart that tumblr recommended to me for some reason on sight.

something hilarious i remembered abt pareo and hina.
yk how hina calls her pare-chan?
well, pare in tagalog is like. the 'bro' or whatever, if you want to greet someone ur close to and stuff u say "hey, pare!"
so she's p much just saying "hey bro!" to pareo.

Bee and Puppycat is great! Very wholesome.
ive always loved the artwork and colours but i was eh about the plot cause it appeared young, but if the characters are actually a reasonable age for that kind of coming of age thing then im IN. it was my one complaint about horimiya, that they were in highschool and not college.
