Shit
Mid-40s like most everyone else here apparently
Just found out I’m autistic. Pretty sure I’m ADHD too…
Welcome to the jungle baby!
Do you provide fun and/or games?
Even when diagnosed with medicine, I sometimes struggle to remember to eat it.

This one hits hard…
Then you get medicated and you realise that even when you do things shit still takes time to do.
Yeah. Adderall gives me the drive, but not the motivation. Video games still usually win over chores.
Yeah the spreadsheet audit I was supposed to have done by January 1st has not gotten much more interesting
I’m autistic, so it’s not a one-for-one; but some similarities to ADHD, and what’s worked for me, is exercise.
Walk 10000 steps a day and go to the gym 3 days a week and lift as heavy as you can.
Use the GZCLP program and you’re golden.
Plus, you get healthier AND you’ll look better naked.
+1 for GZCLP. Of all the beginner programs out there, this one resonates best with everyone I’ve introduced it to.
Got a link?
Reddit thread by the dude who designed the program: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness/comments/44hnbc/strength_training_using_the_gzcl_method_from/
yeah ill get to that tomorrow thanks
Yeah, I fucking wish I was only 30.
I’d be one ugly 30 year old if I were 30
Is there anything you wish you did when you were 30?
Buy bitcoin.
Dude, I knew so early about it, people were just giving them away. I thought it was a scam, still do but I could have been the beneficiary of the scam instead of just a passive observer.
same. i had a friend that was going to pay me 2 bitcoins to drive him 20 minutes to check out a car and then back if he didn’t buy it. i decided that i would just do it for free because we were friends and i didn’t want to figure out the wallet stuff. woops.
true, but also – 46
40
it’s not a bidding lol
Price is Right rules?
50 I’m not going higher
oh you are
Looks at the state of the world.
You sure about that?
you’re gonna keep living, it’s just gonna be less fun
Not if it’s not more fun than a 12ga slug. Not even meaning this in a depression way, I’ll keep working for and looking towards a better future. But when shit really hits the fan I’m not going to be starving to death in a ditch because of environmental collapse or becoming an actual slave to a facist regime. The way I see it, there’s worse things than a quick death.
ever see “comic book confidential”?

“if you are going down in flames, hit something big.”
My former doctor: “Ya. You probably have ADHD but you’re fine. You’ve learned to cope with it.”
Me: Drinking half a bottle of Jim Beam every night to “cope”.
Side note: nice seeing you around again Stamets. The meme quality was suffering in your absence.
Heard that before. “Learned to cope” does not mean “Is coping healthily” you asshats.
And thanks buddy <3
Narrator: they were not fine
43 but we are getting my son tested he’s 11 there were signs even when he was very young. I feel a little guilty we didn’t do it earlier.
You’re doing it now. That’s enough. 👊
50
Erm, embarrassingly older.
Nah, I think this is a no embarrassment zone. Get cozy.
So, uh, serious question. Is it not like this for everyone?
Apparently some people can just…get stuff done somehow?
Nope, most people can’t imagine struggling to motivate yourself
It’s not even a question of motivation. Every ADHD person I know is highly motivated. It’s the ability to act on that motivation that’s impaired.
I’m not sure that’s true.
You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun
That’s the thing about ADHD memes, they tend to resonate with a lot of people who are apparently not ADHD.
I’m not an expert and others here will explain this better than me.
If this behaviour is an indicator of ADHD, then the severity could be arranged along a spectrum. Someone with ADHD is more likely to exhibit the behaviour in an excessive and harmful way.
Apparently not. I am just learning this myself. Go see a doctor (assuming you are in a location that doesn’t treat healthcare like it’s pay to win).
Fuck don’t say this, I’m 30
