Had to think about the days of the week one at a time before realising they all end in Y

This is the second best benefit of my meds. I can keep lists now and actually just do things, so if I feel this way I just start making a list of all the major to-do things I can think of and a list of all the stuff I kind of feel like I should do. Just putting it into a list helps because I then feel more confident I know what needs to get done. Plus I can break down the big things into smaller steps now which is useful.

I definitely tried doing this kind of stuff before getting medicated but it didn’t work. Gotta love how every piece of advice for dealing with ADHD shit only is an option if you don’t have ADHD to begin with.

I’ve started keeping a notepad file up on my computer at all times and just jot down stuff whenever I think of it randomly, has helped with the anxiety a bit

that feeling never goes away, then you die, and everyone says how lazy and selfish you were because you never did any work

At one point in life … you realize that it doesn’t really matter and you start doing whatever you want. Within reason that is and without hurting or negatively affecting anyone else anywhere.

And you also stop giving a crap about what other people think - especially what they think about you. You learn to appreciate the motto:

‘How others think of you is none of your business’

That is again within reason, because what they think shouldn’t matter to you unless it hurts you or negatively affects your life.

Anxiety is fun huh?
