Old ADHD vent comic of mine that went viral on twitter a while back. I ended up closing comments because of the amount of people telling me this wasn't ADHD (because decision paralysis and bad task initiation doesn't fit their idea of it, I guess?)
Good times lol

I understand this comic so much because I deal with it frequently, so...sorry people suck.
Also I am very sorry to hear people were terrible to you over art like this.
Yup, that checks
It's a good piece and very relatable
I didn't put down a mark. For 8. Miserable. Hours. It was like staring into the abyss, frozen. I felt like a failure, and had no idea why.
There is profound creative despair at those thresholds you inexplicably cannot cross. Yet, you try again tomorrow.
(I'm trying to use My ADHD when talking about mine, trying to infect people with the idea that it's not the same for everyone, and using it as one-size-fits-all-idea is likely harmful.)
If you’re not getting stuff done cuz you don’t wanna do it, that’s laziness
But if you’re never able to get stuff done, even when it’s the stuff you really wanna do, THAT is having executive dysfunction

This is a great comic.

I'm sorry you had to experience people denying your experience; a lot of (mainly TikTok) trends fail to remind people that ADHD has shared traits but is overall unique to the individual.
Can absolutely relate with this and it's insane how defeating it can be when you can't even start.

"That's not a gunshot on your shoulder, that's shrapnel!"
That may be useful info for something, but the point we're getting at is that IT HURTS AND IT SHOULDN'T BE THERE!
Man, this may be old, but I am feeling it to this day.
and that's the times i manage to actually turn it on
I don't know if I have ADHD or anything but I do know this is how I felt when I hit my big burnout of 2019 (that I am still recovering from)
Thank you 💙
If you're having trouble even getting up to go try something else, take reading this as your little push
I'm sorry that people where essentially belittling your own experiences and telling you this isn't ADHD. Like, what???
The crossover between the two is strong, but I have other diagnosed ADHD siblings so we can compare and contrast symptoms to figure out which one is likely to be doing which thing to me 🤣
And thank you! It was very odd, I think it was just a lot of uninformed folks
I think it is great that you were able to piece ADHD together.
I am sure some of you could relate
*laughs in decision paralysis*
I need to educate myself more on what ADHD actually is...
Glad you made it out of the Twellhole, too, my fellow refugee 🫶🏽
Can't.
It helps a little knowing I'm not alone, at least
