Being audhd means living in this world isn't going to be simple much of the time, but there are ways to make it easier.
How hard does it have to be before you're willing to ask for help? Do you feel like it's this hard for everyone?

I go thrift shopping sometjmes for something small but useful to make my space more adorable and beautiful. It can be a sugar bowl that cost a dollar because the china set wasn't complete. It will make me smile every time I use it.

If you are self-diagnosed, you're still valid. Non-autistic people don't go around wondering if they're autistic for years
This is why SELF-DIAGNOSIS IS VALID and ALSO A SAFETY MEASURE. I don’t want to hear ANYONE touting the stigma around that again. Please share this with anyone considering getting a formal diagnosis. For many, there isn’t even any support pass the “check mark” on your medical records.

At times, we think we want to know *why* something is happening , when what we actually need to know is how to accept and move forwardWe think we want to know why because then it will give us something to fight against. 1 /4

Can Marvel a Harley Quinn Animated Series-esqe series where it's just Matt Murdock and She-Hulk defending various Marvel superheroes and antiheroes and villains and several R-rated highjinks ensue? I feel like this would have the potential to be very funny.

I think the reason so many autistic, adhd, and lots of other neurotypes end up in addiction of some kind or another is that we are simply trying to numb the pain of existence when the world is overwhelming and we have no ability to say no entirely to the sensory hell that is outside our doors.

The reason alcoholism and addiction are so prevalent in neurodivergent people/families is because the only way we were accepted was by masking so hard it broke us and the only way we kept going is by using

When you think back on all of the things you could do before burnout, make sure you have the right perspective. You may ask yourself "I should be able to do x because I always did before". Babe, the only reason you did it before is by ignoring all your needs and running on empty 24/7
