Oh, I see.

ADHD is asking “wait, what are we talking about again?” when you’re the one that’s talking.

It’s wild how when a specific interest switch turns off in my brain, it’s basically impossible to flip it back on again.

Something happens and I’m just completely over that specific hobby or project for good.

One thing that is really seems to be lacking here vs that _other_ platform is search.

I’m not sure if it’s an instance thing or I’m doing something wrong, but search doesn’t seem to ever find much value. I’m guessing it’s limited to instance which is a huge bummer.

The ADHD experience is like queuing up your plans for the day but forgetting you left shuffle on.

Lazy = I don’t want to do the thing

ADHD = I desperately WANT to do the thing, but just can’t seem to START doing the thing

Ahh, finally some free time so I can catch up on stuff!

[proceeds to do nothing, in an overwhelmy sort of way]

“Please show your work.”

“have you tried using a planner?”

ADHD is great intentions sabotaged by compulsive inaction.

My favorite ADHD gift is the confidence that I can do just about anything if I find it interesting enough.

@axi0kers0s@infosec.exchange oh whoa - that’s great! Thanks for sharing!

The hidden burden of undiagnosed ADHD is constantly needing to invent excuses in an attempt to explain or justify behavior that you don’t even understand yourself.

ADHD is _desperately_ needing a cup of coffee, taking one sip, and then forgetting about it completely until it’s gone cold.
