sometimes i use a comma in casual text to connect two independent clauses because i want to seem chill and unpretentious, but please know that in my head, i'm using a semicolon
I don’t have the "running around the room" kind of ADHD.
I have the "sitting completely still, staring at a wall, while my brain plays 3 songs, plans a hypothetical argument for next Tuesday, and silently screams because my sock feels wrong" kind of ADHD.
The chaos is strictly internal.
I can either look you in the eyes and nod like a normal human, or I can actually listen to what you are saying. I cannot do both.
If I am maintaining perfect eye contact, please know that my brain is currently using 100% of its RAM to render a simulation of a functional adult, and I have heard absolutely nothing.
A 3 PM appointment doesn't mean I am busy at 3 PM.
It means I am busy from 8 AM until 3 PM doing absolutely nothing but "Waiting for 3 PM."
I cannot start a task. I cannot relax. I am simply buffering in the lobby of my own life for 7 hours.
they should invent a way to ask someone whether they still want you around without it coming off as incredibly pathetic and also making the person feel uncomfortable and pressured by putting them on the spot
