If she had only known the anxiety that drove that draft out of you she probably wouldn’t have been mad. Well, if you’re like me at least.

Yeah “common sense” is normally just “things I believe with no justification so I can’t explain why I believe them.”

Same here. If something is on fire it’s fun to deal with and easy to hyper focus on till it’s resolved. If it’s repetitive everyday kind of stuff, ughhhh.

Exactly. No idea why people have downvoted you.

Our happiness relies on being able to accept the limitations we have. If others can’t accept them that’s on them. And honestly it’s not that big a deal. I am successful and have been in the same profession for over 20 years. Everyone I work with knows about it and works with me. I also work around their limitations. That’s just part of being on a team.

I think this may be a misunderstanding of what they are saying.

If you think I’ve forgotten a task you asked me to do, then I probably have. Say something. Don’t sit there stewing like I forgot it on purpose.

It’s not about them constantly checking up and reminding, it’s about reacting with anger to something we have no control over.

There’s also a big difference between “I’ll never be on time” and “there will be times I’m late because I have adhd”. But seriously if someone can’t handle my adhd symptoms I don’t expect them to, but they should also not expect me to care that they can’t deal with them. Because I don’t.

I do the opposite and tell everyone. I am who I am and they can accept me or not, no skin off my back. But when I eventually forget something, I’d rather them already know it’s not personal or because I don’t care, in fact it’s not about them at all. It’s because my brain just sabatoges me sometimes.

I feel ya man and to be honest I understand what you are getting at more than I understand what others are trying to say, so I just wanted to point that out.

If we let others know of our limitations and they expect us to magically overcome those limitations that’s on them.

Example: I forget things ALL the time. I can’t control what I forget. I try to ensure that I do things to help me remember. But I will forget things. If I’ve explained that to someone and they still get angry with me over forgetting something, that’s their problem. My forgetfulness is far more stressful to me than it is to them and I’m not taking on any extra guilt for their unreasonable expectations of me. I’ll apologize and move on.

Hopefully Tiffany will tour them

Yeah this comes off real weird.

It is not.

No, ginger is not a tree.

And potato is a tuber but an onion is not. Both are flowering plants. So is ginger.

Ginger has nothing to do with ‘a bit of wood attached to a tree’ which is exactly my point.

So is a potato wood? A carrot?

Ginger is not a tree. It’s a flowering plant.

It’s not a tree root.

Ginger is a root, maybe you’re thinking of something else?

Renting: cheaper is almost always better.

Purchasing: it can make sense to get the nicest place you can afford, with the expectation that your pay will increase but your mortgage won’t.

I am asking this in all earnest, even though some may interpret it as trolling.

Your comment history says otherwise. I’m gonna just go ahead and block you.

They’ll be all, “well, just do it. How hard could it be?”

Though sometimes that’s exactly what I need someone to tell me. To the point that I do this with some of my other ADHD friends. “Do it right now. I’ll wait.”

Ah okay I couldn’t see her back so it just looked sesame. They’re cute as heck.
