You forgot when u go to drink water and see how you forgot to clean de dishes, then you try to finish It, BUT while ur doing It you suddenly remember the thing you were doing originally and leave It halfdone AGAIN

brotato03.bsky.social•127 days ago

Dude this is so painfully accurate ahaha 😅

eclecticcyborg.bsky.social•127 days ago

I feel this so much. It’s hard to explain to normally wired people what having ADHD is really like.

Or coming back to the cover letter, having no idea what we wanted to say in it and abandoning ship, problem for another day!

brotato03.bsky.social•128 days ago

Absolutely, this too!!

spiercloie.bsky.social•128 days ago

you did not need to call me out

brotato03.bsky.social•127 days ago

Ahahaha I'm sorry!!

spiercloie.bsky.social•127 days ago

seriously, adhd is like a battle with yourself.

you want to do something and then your adhd is like: " OOOH LOOK A SQUIRREL!"

brotato03.bsky.social•127 days ago

This is the perfect description of ADHD I've ever seen omg 😂

brotato03.bsky.social•127 days ago

Most perfect* 😅

spiercloie.bsky.social•127 days ago

Also, see something quick that needs doing.
Set thing in hands down to do it.
Thing has either completely disappeared, or you have forgotten it existed entirely.

brotato03.bsky.social•128 days ago

Omg yes exactly!! I do this allllll the time

I love posts like these because without them i never would have came to the conclusion that i might need testing for adhd rather than ‘maybe i am just dumb’

brotato03.bsky.social•126 days ago

Thank you! And same here actually!! My first inklings of realisation that I have ADHD were posts like this and my friends occasionally pointing stuff out, trust me you're not alone <3

obstacle01.bsky.social•126 days ago

I’m finding that this seems to be a common experience which is fantastic but! I gotta say it was kinda hard talking to a therapist and having her ask me ‘so why do you think you have adhd’ and NOT answering ‘i related too hard to too many memes’

brotato03.bsky.social•126 days ago

Oh god I can imagine how that could've gone 😂

sheeeple.bsky.social•127 days ago

I'm literally crying that I spent 5 hours playing dti instead of drawing
