Anxiety and ADHD, a thread.

@Finnattentive @adhdasiangirl I'd love to! How does one do that 😅

@adhdasiangirl @Finnattentive I don't know what this other place is (?) But if there's ND people there I'd sure want one!

@Finnattentive I have invites if anyone needs it!

@GayWitchKinda I might've gone through a similar timeline

@ADHDelaide maybe i am autistic

What they say: we'll call you back What autistics hear: we'll call you with no estimated time frame, for something important that will impact your life, uncertainty will skyrocket your anxiety, expecting a phone call will make you panic and freeze, you have no right to complain

@elsalwilliams Being called out in an artistic way, classy

Photographer captured me falling head over heels for my mate’s new wife, which I think we can all agree is the main thing

@barisanhantu I love you <3

@Felgraf_Physics I truly wish it was that one xD

the ADHD experience of having a song/jingle stuck in your head at all times because your brain can’t handle a lack of stimulation for longer than 0.5 seconds

@KaitOfChange Pleasure!

@ADHDelaide This tweet literally toggled my thirst interoception to on and I am actively walking to the fridge for a drink, so thank you for that.

ADHD plus POTS is such a fun combination. POTS: You need to hydrate frequently! ADHD: Let's forget water exists for 10 hours straight Me, several hours later: why do I feel dizzy all of a sudden

@ChasingGideons 💀💀💀

@graced_blossom Brain buddies 🤜🤛 I hope you keep her hydrated! Or try lol

@kaekaecurtis This is going straight to the top 10 of best AO3 writer's notes alongside the jail and wedding ones

ao3 writers really are god’s strongest soldiers, because why did i just read this author’s note on a fic that just updated?!?! like BRO?!?!

@bradford_hardin Why would we pay for a trash service that has been free for over a decade just because a millionaire is throwing a tantrum over a terrible financial decision

Dear rate limited tweeters: The owner of this app wants you to pay $8 per month. You’re probably fairly rich and spend 60+ hours a month here. Just pay the man and get on with it.

seriously, this is way under-researched—if you think you have even mild #aphantasia please take this survey 🙏🏼 edgehillpsychology.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_er…

@unicornthorn 💀

once I asked my mom if she thought my dad was autistic and she said no then she started telling me a story about how she learned morse code because my dad went through a period where he would exclusively communicate via morse code FOR MONTHS, and I just stared at her

@OneironautAlien people really don't like being called out, specially on their internalised fatphobia

To other autistic people, what common autistic traits do you NOT experience or relate to?

@Quinns_quirks @Autistic_Lia Same here. If I'm not thinking about it I'm terrible, but the moment I concentrate my fine motor skills are well above average.

@ADDeeCee Relatable 😂

me reading a book for over 150 pages wondering why there are so many benches in a kitchen before I finally twig that the author is Australian & referring to worktops/counters 🤦🏻‍♀️ (tbf to me, the book is not explicitly in Oz) #Aphantasia does funny things with visual concepts…
