Edit: I just learned from a comment on another post here that it’s literally the only rule for this community. Thanks @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com for taking out the trash.


I just ran into several comments all saying this. If you’re going to be policing this community for “normal human behavior” you’ve certainly got a lot of work cut out for yourself. Almost everything about ADHD is an exaggeration of normal human behavior, we don’t randomly tweet like birds or wear silly hats, it’s the exaggeration that makes it a disorder.

It’s also really invalidating and it’s the same gaslighting crap that we’ve had fed to us by jerks our whole lives.

    I think keeping it more quiet is best and not irrational, tbh. Last thing you need are uninformed people giving a half-baked opinion about your mental health.

    My ADHD meds actually help me deal with many of the more severe symptoms. I got into specialized therapy very recently, though, so I’m hoping that I will start seeing improvement.

    Thank you. PTSD solidarity. 🤜🤛
