#unfocusing ur eyes on an object by focusing instead on another depth of field

[yup-i-made-an-adhd-blog]

question abt meds and yall’s eyes:

i’ve noticed that i get lots of different sorts of visual snow, like popping light dots and that static fuzz over everything (post for context), and this is a silly curiosity but my eyes don’t do it as much when i take adderall? same with that post about how ~neurotypicals can’t focus/unfocus their eyes (which 100% is an overgeneralization lmao but),~ i’ve always liked to do that when i’m bored and it’s really difficult on meds.

like, the getting-new-glasses metaphor for how medication feels in ur brain is super apt, but also everything does seem slightly, maybe, sharper visually?? idk? i’m not actually drawing conclusions here, but since both of these eye things have been connected to neurodivergence* on tumblr, and are affected by ~treatment~ for mine, pls someone validate my experiences lmk ur take

*(connected to, not an intrinsic part of or caused by; im not trying to spread misinfo or anything, this might 100% be me going:

but i wanna know bc its bugging me!!)
