ADHD Emotional Spectrum
  • I know it's hard to get in the habit, but take out your phone when making any plans or appointments, get the calendar app out and add it as it happens. Don't wait even 1 minute. Feel free to tell the person you're adding it to the calendar as you do it if you feel like you're being rude. I set reminder notifications for all appointments based on how much notice I would need if I completely forgot about it.

    They invest in Black women. A lawsuit claims it’s discrimination.
  • No, attempting to rectify past injustice by investing in communities who suffered from it is not racism. And it isn't okay to be racist against white people these days. FUCK OFF ASSHOLE

    What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations?
  • I've seen many Bison Tubes sold online, small Tupperware containers that have a locking lid, even peanut butter jars covered in camo tape are somewhat common. The best ones are custom made. Some great ones are 3D printed to fit in (think oversized acorn in a tree). I also enjoy everyday objects that are out of place like a pop up sprinkler head placed in the ground with the log inside. I made one that was a log where I bored out the middle. Those hide a key fake rocks work nicely as well.

    Freedom units 💯
  • Shorts in 10C is standard practice for me. Really not that cold for us in the NorthWest. Now if we're talking Southern Californians 10C is heavy winter jacket weather.

    Does anyone *not* love using their bidet?
  • I have 2 in my home, one is the fancy one (not that fancy but 200 bucks from Costco on sale) the other is basic. Fancy one I feel like anyone would love, seat is warmed a little on cold mornings, has a heated tank for a perfectly gentle temperature, can adjust pressure and position (forward or back), can have a gentle pulse for extra cleaning assistance, and a dryer. The basic one is unheated and has a pressure knob that can go from gentle all the way up to blast you off the toilet, and you have to adjust yourself to the right spot. If you're willing to spend more for the nice options and have an outlet close enough to your toilet you'll likely be very happy. The basic one I'm very happy to use if the other is inaccessible and took some getting used to but still miles better than nothing. I never feel clean without a bidet anymore.

    The penny has finally dropped. What do I do now?
  • What kind of tasks are you having issues with? For myself getting a proper diagnosis and therapist helped especiallywith the little things. It was getting medicated that helped a lot with larger tasks. I remember the first day I started on it, I had just stepped outside to get a package and saw a part of my yard full of weeds that had bothered me for about 2 months. I set down the package and pulled the weeds and continued on my day. There was no more fighting my own brain to get tasks done.
