So… I have a 15-year-old son who, by his own choice, lives with his dad and only comes to stay with me on weekends. He came over on Friday, and when I was unpacking his backpack I found a bunch of these things inside. Does anyone know what this is? He completely avoids the subject and is super closed off with me. Please help 😭

How did our ancestors survive without ADHD medication or depression pills and anxiety meds? Can anyone explain?

Examples of ADHD-friendly habit stacking: After coffee → plan the day When I plug in my phone → take meds After brushing teeth → set out clothes Use habits you already have as anchors. Less pressure. More success.

Best advice ever for building routines. Have some “kernel” that is your rock on which you build the rest of your personal operating system. I do a 30m walk in the morning that I love to do and do it because I love it. Around that I build my entire routine. Everything is pre-walk, during the walk, post-walk. It’s a game-changer.

I used to be an assistant editor and publisher for a philosophy journal. This is SO TRUE. The ones who never improve tend to blame the audience for having short attention spans and bad thinking habits. They see people who are getting massive success selling terrible ideas and get jaded.

people don’t have bad ideas, they just explain good ideas in the worst possible way and get ignored for it

I love when neurodivergent people explain something they’re passionate about because suddenly we’re all in a free masterclass taught by someone vibrating at 900mph.

@omgsidewalks I used to think crying was so embarrassing. Idgaf anymore. It’s just a nervous system response. No need to cry over crying over spilt milk.

I’ll never judge a person who breaks down in tears over something small. Because I know very well that they are not crying for that reason, but for everything they have been holding inside until that moment.

@Pirat_Nation When I was a little baby Airman in the USAF around 2009 or so we were still using mIRC in some cases.

European governments are moving away from WhatsApp and Signal for official communications and switching to their own secure messaging systems that they fully control. Countries including France, Germany, Belgium, Poland, the Netherlands and Luxembourg have adopted in-house platforms such as BEAM, Wire and Matrix-based tools. The European Commission will complete its switch by the end of 2026, and NATO already runs its own dedicated system. The issue is not encryption strength. Both WhatsApp and Signal use strong end-to-end encryption, their real concern is that these apps are run by US companies under US law and the governments want complete control over servers, metadata, data and access rules. For individuals and organisations wanting the same level of control, Wire is a strong and accessible choice. It is Swiss-made, open-source, uses modern encryption, and can be self-hosted so your data stays under your control. It is already used by thousands of German officials.

@kevin_jordan__ Haha omg the struggle is real. When I was a kid and was ignorant of ADHD and all that, I used to joke that I had early onset old age. It seems it is very much like having mild dementia.

Worst thing about ADHD? Forgetting things 5 seconds after thinking of them. I just spent 15 minutes saying "phone, charger, water, phone, charger, water" like a man casting a spell. Forgot the water and why I was leaving.

@libriscent For ADHDers, our common cognitive and neurological failure modes look a lot like classic moral failure modes for normies. It’s understandable.

I think some neurodivergent people became perfectionists because mistakes were treated like character flaws instead of human experiences.

being neurodivergent is having the vision of a ceo, the emotional depth of a poet, and the executive dysfunction of a raccoon.

Hmmm idk. I have severe ADHD. Thought experiemnt: If I had a choice between being stranded on a desert island with a long-term supply of adderall, vs not having the adderall, I’d choose having the adderall. I’d have way better chances of survival vs not. It has amazing survival benefit.

@MeanGirlPomp @hashjenni I agree, the modern world is FAR from perfect, but the survival benefits to human beings are unbelievable.

Studies confirm that rejection sensitive dysphoria is real and is one of the most painful and least talked about symptoms of ADHD. The pain you feel from criticism is not dramatic. It is neurological.
