My ADHD brain loves to avoid getting started on a task, thrives in the middle bc I can goof around, and then promptly decides we cannot finish the task under any circumstance

I sacrifice tiny parts of my soul for productivity

Them: "If something is a priority, you need to make the time." Me: You guys can make time? Time just blindfolds me and uses me as a piñata

It’s crazy how in even looking back at pictures of myself as a child, it was so clear I had ADHD HOW DID EVERYONE MISS IT

My internal clock only has 2 times: ➊ blissful ignorance 🏖️ 😌 ➋ impending doom 🚨 😱

Honestly if you’ve seen my RBF then that means I’m comfortable with you. If I’m able to completely unmask then you’ve officially made it in my circle.

The biggest misconception I’m starting to see about ADHD is that we’re not trying to do certain things better like do you think I want to stay on the struggle bus

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

The first step in wanting change, is believing that things are capable of change. #adhd #growthmindset

I have so many clients that come to me struggling with the same problem… they don’t know how to get started. And I totally agree!! This is one of the biggest challenges we face. And it’s more complicated than just getting ourselves to do it. #adhdprobs

You ever get so overwhelmed with the amount of stuff you need to do, that you can’t remember any specific thing that you need to do?

I sleep with 5 pillows and every morning I wake up with them rearranged differently. Sometimes there are 2 or 3 on the floor. I throw them to the bottom of the bed. I’m cuddling them. I make a fort with them. Sometimes they don’t move at all. It’s a surprise every morning 😂

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

The amount of times I put laundry in the washer or dryer and forget to start it is comical 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

My current tv hyperfixation is trashy reality shows and I’m loving every minute of it.

I know that it might take me longer to do certain tasks. And that’s okay! While it can be frustrating at times, I just plan more time in my schedule for these tasks. Progress is still progress!

Constantly battling between needing/wanting snacks in the office so that I don’t starve myself all day…. But also struggling with the self control not to eat all of them at once.

The pups cuddled up with me on the couch while reading and now you’re telling me I have to disturb them to get up and work?? How rudeeee

Remember that there’s no right or wrong way to do something, as long as it works for you!! Don’t worry about trying to do things the way society tells us. You are allowed to create your own rules #adhdtips
