@buzzimoss It was soooo hard to disclose harm ocd thoughts because for so long I had been made to believe my thoughts dictated who I was as a person. I’m sorry you experience this and I hope the world gets better at understanding ocd soon <3
Never used to believe this but after dating someone with ADHD yeah it really works like that. “Oh I don’t have to be there until 10 cool” and then they inexplicably add more shit to the morning until they’re late again
I got a coworker who claimed she couldn't show up at 9 because she has adhd.
She regularly rolled in at 10.
Our boss decided that she'd give her a bone and set our core, in-office hours as 10-3.
Coworker started rolling up at 11.
this is probably the worst era to have ocd in because your peers do in fact think thoughts = morality and that one mistake on the internet means you’re evil
@the_corvidae The exposure therapy for harm OCD is to go around others and realize you won’t automatically harm them. Obviously. You have a massive misunderstanding of what exposure therapy & OCD even are. Wow.
@ZacThriff My work just had a temp who would complain about all his past jobs firing him and then casually flung around the F slur 😭 dawg. These people are lost causes
@lo_saturna1ia Bro 😭😭 being told I’ve had bipolar since 18 and that being followed up with “oh yeah mania causes brain damage so you should get medicated” WHAT.
@Novanamix Idk why it’s so hard for them to understand, you can only push the boundaries *after* you have the security of a job. If you hate the state of things you need power to impact them
Muted ❤️ It takes a lot of time and commitment to overcome symptoms like this, it’s not an excuse for impacting other people but it’s important to know where things come from before we try to fix things. Anyway I love my ADHD boyfriend even when he doesn’t take his meds
It’s not conscious and they’d change if they could. I’m the opposite (routinely way too early, like inappropriately so) so I really can’t judge tbh timing is really hard when you’re neurotic
@astro_v4mp If you’re done with half the day left, you find more fucking work to do. Obviously. You don’t get to just play on your phone or whatever. It also might mean you’re doing something wrong if everyone else takes double the time!!!!!
@hana_biart@o_____o For every one who isn’t fired there are 20 who are lol. Kinda sounds like they just had an opportunity to accommodate so they tried it and it didn’t work. But yeah if I was that boss I would’ve fired her much sooner
It always sucks to remember just how many people genuinely cannot read. Like just absolutely completely lack any kind of comprehension skills. How fucked are we man
@jeffrychchen Holy shit bro, nobody is fucking babying them. THEY STILL FACE CONSEQUENCES. this is STILL a well known ADHD symptom holy shit nobody cares if you don’t like it!!!
