SPD/ADHD problems

  • "this is cute" *feels it* "Bad Texture™!!"
  • sensory overloads that people just think is being antisocial. no im actually having an episode here let me be in physical pain from a texture for ten minutes
  • then there's the days where you just don't feel anything (hyposensitive days) and you feel like you're goin insane
  • "there's a loud sound! quick, put music on that's even louder!! ultimately causing hearing damage!!" (i do this when i mow my lawn)
  • am i really ADD/ADHD/SPD or am i just faking it?? im using the community for my own selfish reasons even though i am certainly Not doing That
  • *hyper-foucuses on one song/show/person/ect"
  • *goes non-verbal for a week*
  • you have to have something(like a podcast/tv/video) in the background of what you're doing or else you can't focus At All
  • getting irritated at seemingly nothing (like the jacket you're wearing being a bad texture/earbuds brushing against your face is my personal pet peeve)
  • when you're having a sensory overload you just feel mad and irritated and like crying and kicking and everything is too much
  • when things aren't enough (hyposensitive) you feel empty and broken :/
  • when ur meds turn you into a zombie :(

ADD/ADHD/SPD/Autistic peeps feel free to add more! it will be ok!

the truest ADHD ally of our time was my professor who during a field exam handed me a newt and told me to hold it and I was like “what do you want me to do with this” thinking it was for the test and he shrugged and said “it’s just to keep ya busy”

one time in math class the kid next to me basically said that ppl with adhd wouldnt be able to pass the class because theyre idiots. i didnt want to get involved so i just kinda shrunk into my seat.

my teacher immidiately went to the students desk, looked him dead in the eyes and said “i have adhd.” 

he then proceeded to very shortly lecture about how people with adhd are not idiots, and students with it will still be able to succeed in his class.

Mentors with ADHD are the best, they get how your brain works and usually the two of you get up to the same type of shit so they’re great at showing you how to dig yourself out of it too

treenymph asked:

about the telling the therapist. i told her last week and she said she doesn't believe i have adhd, i told her what i think are my symptoms and examples but i couldn't make them sound like they did in my head lol :)) she said it's probably me being a teenager and being hormonal. idk what to do. now i'm really questioning if i made it up to seem 'special'. but i really thought i had it (still do a little bit but now i'm very doubtful) :/

the biggest thing to remember is that adhd is a disorder, and it’s not the kind of thing anyone would just choose to have, if that makes sense. i’m sure being a teenager with extra hormones isn’t helping, but unless you actively chose to start faking symptoms i think it’s pretty unlikely you’re faking it. i’m fairly certain you mentioned this was a school counselor, so my advice would be to find an actual, qualified therapist or psychiatrist if you can to talk about it and get a more informed opinion!

treenymph asked:

hello! just followed you because i saw your post about ur ask box and scrolled and i like your blog :D i have a question if you don't mind. so i've been suspecting that i have adhd for like half a year but now i'm like 90% sure and school just started and i wanna tell my school therapist about it, but i can't seem to remember the symptoms no matter how many times i read them. i don't wanna tell her without 'proof' cause i don't wanna seem like i don't know what i'm talking about :/

this can be really hard, especially since forgetfulness is a big part of adhd itself! the best advice i can give you is to just write your symptoms down as you notice them throughout the day (maybe including examples of situations you noticed them in?) you could write it down anywhere, but i find it easiest just to open up the notes app in my phone and jot it down before i forget, then review it later with the therapist. i hope this helps, and good luck with talking about it for the first time!
