ADHD is a Scam. This is why: name another disorder that can make you both over and under-productive simultaneously. Name another disorder that a stim can be operating. Name another disorder everybody wants to claim to have but doesn’t. They think it’s cute to say just to fit in. How do you take someone seriously who can’t who needs reminders for their reminders?
ADHD you are a roach that I can’t kill, a pain in my side. I don’t know how to describe the despair of feeling like I once again have all my shit together, that I got the right planner, the right notebook, the right medication, only to find out it was a rouse. That this was not the life changing event that I thought it would be.
I am exhausted.
I want to feel the satisfaction of achieving a long term goal, of completing a thing of not feeling like I need adult supervision for every important milestone in life. I am tired of being tired of myself, and yet I love myself, so what’s a neurodivergent girl to do but wait for my Ritalin prescription to be filled 3 weeks late and deal with the fall out of the withdrawal that causes my ADHD to go into hyperdrive.
One day I will be a well balanced holistic woo woo wellness coach that looks at these struggles as a lessons s that got me to the point of understanding how to manage my ADHD in away that allows me to be my best self. And I wholeheartedly believe that day will come…I have to. But until it does, I guess I’m being taken for a ride.
