well here’s what it’s like for me

• feeling like you need to Do Shit All The Time
  
• like, literally every second
• if you aren’t stimulated for even a second you’re incredibly bored
• boredom is literally painful
• it’s worse than death
• worse than e v e r y t h i n g
• feelin that sweet Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria™ any time you get teased or insulted
• when you’re listening to music you always tune it out eventually
• not picking up on social cues At All
• actually, what are social cues?
• can’t regulate attention
• not interesting = not worth paying attention to
• hyperfocus for hours
• “wAIT ITS 4 PM WHAT THE F U C K”
  
• did i forget to eat again
• The Thoughts go from point a to point g in less than one (1) fuckin sentence
• *someone says a thing* what *person repeats thing* what *person repeats thing again and you still don’t hear them but dont ask what again in case they think ur weird*
• or, alternatively
• *someone says a thing* what *person starts to repeat said thing; you reply less than a second after they start*
• using subtitles all the time so you don’t have to go back twenty times to determine What The Fuck someone said
• “sorry i tuned you out for that entire sentence can you repeat that”
  
• needing e x t r e m e l y s p e c i f i c d i r e c t i o n s
• EXTREMELY POOR VOLUME CONTROL TBH
• tfw that thing u were working on falls apart and u cant redo it bc u already did it and that would be boring
• long blocks of text are Extremely Hard to Read
• ur fuckin brain works 12 times as fast as everyone elses. for every ADHD person it’s somethin different. for me it’s puns. ill choke on my own laughter at a pun an Entire Second before anyone else even gets it
• RAMBLING
• The Leg Bounce™
• Disassociation
• that ADHD feel when you
• ^^ that one is a True Marker of an ADHD person. only ADHD people understand.
