Holy shit the rejection thing makes sense now

[BigIndianBindi-jycz]

the worst one for me is not being able to talk properly. to gather words in my mind, assemble them, and speak them. there's too much getting lost/frozen/confused. it makes me want to avoid social communication, which leads to no friends and depression.

Time management- I have clocks throughout my house with the wrong times on them on purpose. I just know that by the time the min hand is on 15: I need to start my makeup. When the min hand is on 45:I better be wrapping it up. On the hour: I need to get out of the bathroom.

If I look at my phone or watch time, it throws my whole morning off because I’ll start bargaining with myself.

Im sitting here with my books infront of me and its 1:06 a.m and i haven't touch it yet 😭

[shesmyvampire]

Could you talk more about the binge/overeating aspect because oof...I felt that one and didn't know it was a symptom.

[LeMeDuh]

She explained how I have been living my whole life. I’m 23 and I struggle with time management just like she said, I also take criticism very hard and I am very hard on myself even when others tell me I did a amazing job on a project, and last but not least I definitely binge eat and overheat (I am considered morbidly obese though I’m a tall guy). I don’t know what to do at this point with my life. I feel constantly tired and sad 😞

[Ichigo_nnh]

I’m super sensitive to criticism. It’s very helpful when someone says, “you can’t think that way. That’s how the world works.” Like yes I know that. I’m not crying because I want too.

Could you tell me what your definition of "underrated" is

[timmendoza]

The time management is the one that I struggle with the most 🤣🤣🤣. If I have to be at work by 9am, and the drive will take me 10 minutes, I know that I will need to leave the house at 8.50am... but if I have to start work at 8.30, or 8.45, or 9.15... yup no, I most likely will be late coz I have underestimated the time I need to get ready 🤣

[zandatsu_cooks]

I'm the opposite, I forget to eat most of the day or just am not motivated to get food. I'm trying to gain weight but it's hard😅

We doin a tier list of my adhd symptoms?

[sillybilly]

Hi! I have Autism and ADHD, and lets talk about this! The time blindness one was 100% correct, same with the second, but please please PLEASE don't downplay undereating! When i am doing something for to long, with my time blindness, it is really hard to realize when i am hungry, and mostly think i am not, and at 2am i am starving. A thing i do to help with this is to, i know it sounds weird, but i smell the food, and that usually helps me understand if i am really hungry or not; this may not help everyone, but it really helped me! Love y'all, stay hydrated loves ❤

These were the 3 most massive problems for me growing up, and I feel like it's why I wasn't diagnosed for so long. My issues were immediately attributed to depression and anxiety, which I definitely do have, but it was never looked into closer until I begged someone to in my early 20s. And ohp! Suprise! ADHD! Especially RSD. Understanding that and learning how to deal with it has been an incredible thing for my sense of self worth.

[ARandomPersonOnHere]

I’ve been showing signs of autism and ADHD a lot but I never want to self diagnose. My parents say that I’m fine but then I started to get really sad about some of these things and ended up crying like 5 times this year so they took me to a psychiatrist to talk about it. I was very open about it but these tests are really expensive and take a long time and the place we drove was an hour so my parents are finding somewhere else to go. We haven’t gone to one. I think I should really tell my parents about finding another place to get me tested. I really want to know if I have either one since it would make more sense in how I act and my social life with people. I always get scarred about how the things I do is my fault and I’m going through a bit of a fought time since my best friend isn’ at my school anymore and she was one of my only friends.

Edit: yup I got diagnosed with adhd and asd and now my life is getting better!

[lindelheimen]

I was diagnosed and I have all three of three of these, I can’t manage my time well/ not know how much time I have spent doing something, criticism and rejection is very much like that, and I have a really big problem with overeating/binge eating

[leeelahglitz]

My partner has all three, and it's something he's been wanting to improve on, so I've been trying to help him find ways to cope or make things easier on him, whilst also trying to show him that I love him and all his qwerks, just like he loves my flaws.

As someone that doesn't have ADHD, I have had to try to learn to adjust to these things as well. For example. The split second he senses any form of rejection, or if he notices my mood or tone slightly change, he'll close off and become quite upset. Even if I'm still happy as can be, but have a lot on my mind, he'll panic and think he's done something wrong just by my body language, then he'll shut himself off and mentally beat himself up about it and I have to try to convince him that he's done nothing wrong.

We are almost always early to things, with a lot of excess time to spare, because he'd rather be early than late. I don't usually mind, as I tend to procrastinate and put things off, then feel anxious when I'm late, or when I only just make it to things on time, so he's certainly helped me with my anxiety and routine.

I have ADHD and when I tell you I have zero perception of time I mean I can’t tell the difference between an hour and 30 minutes

[megamanlinkfan]

you get use to the pain of the criticism. im still just as sensitive though. I use to think it was a maturity thing but im a grown adult and it's still there. its hard to accept that its not something you can control its just part of me.

[africanqueenmo]

My gosh you have helped me to understand why someone I care for is struggling

[lindaanderson]

Yuppp. I agree. Late still at 61.
The rush of focus and effective work at last minute is hard to skip.
