🤣 That's beginning to sound like a common thing. Same here. Browsing egg_irl a few days having a good laugh and then a few of them were basically like "hey you know this thing? Cis people don't do that" and a voice in my head was like, "remember when you realized why all the adhd memes were so relatable and funny?" 😂😅😁😐🤔😑😳😧😨😱
Cue a couple months of intense introspection.
Whaaaat? You mean it's not normal to sit and do absolutely nothing for 7 hours leading up to an appointment? For every parent teacher meeting to end in "they're smart but if they would JUST apply themselves"?
I really need to get scheduled for an adult diagnosis. Had a childhood diagnosis, responded well to the medication I guess (Strattera nausea suuucked) buuuut I have no idea if those medical records still exist because my parents tossed that shit years ago and the other record holder is.... DoD/Tricare.
Me?? Is that you???
Maybe, if you can consume near bottomless amounts of caffeine then take a nap (it took 9 shots of espresso for me to feel wired for... about 30 minutes)
Too real, except for me the gender came before the adhd 😅😅😅
