“Use a planner!” I have a stack of them! They go unused after 10 days because ADHD. “Just make a routine!” Great! Done! The moment it gets interrupted it becomes impossible to go back to, because ADHD 😄 “You just need discipline!” My barely-functional life is the result of already more discipline than you can muster on your best day because - you guessed it - ADHD 🙃

    It's the second point there that makes me think I'm not just autistic. A routine? I've never managed to have those. What I do have is having to constantly tell myself to do something. Every. Single. Time. And if it's interrupted for some reason? Fuck me! Dentist is a condescending jerk about my not brushing my teeth because it is a constant struggle every morning.

  • > Just make a routine! I have a routine that rivals a priest on Easter Sunday. But the best written homily doesn't undo the fact that the organist is about to start the prelude and for the life of me, I can't figure out where those damned communion wafers have gone even though I swear I just saw them!

    People talking about discipline make me angry. It just feels pretentious and like and imaginary attribute to me, like wanting to feel better about not questioning tasks given

    I am very disciplined when I’m in my rabbit holes.
