"I would kill for you. I would die for you" would you take a break for me? Would you sit down and rest? For a day, a week, a year? Would you let others take care of your needs for me? Would you let yourself be held for me? By me?

sign up for the gold package of ADHD today and experience the following moods:

The Loop - opening and closing the same three websites in succession for 15 minutes at a time before realizing that there’s not going to be anything new or worth doing on those websites (my three are Tumblr, Youtube and Wikipedia)

The Ack - seeing you have a new message and, though you have no evidence that it’s anything even remotely noteworthy let alone negative, feel intense dread and procrastinate looking at the message for 30 minutes/5 hours/a week

The Shimmy - changing sitting/laying positions every 5 minutes because god dammit i’m not going to be able to focus on whatever task i need to do if I feel any unwelcome physical sensation

The Ol’ Razzle Dazzle - making a hot beverage for yourself and then putting it down slightly out of reach and then not drinking it until 45 minutes later when it has already gone cold

The Bellwether - scrolling on Tumblr and getting the urge to google something/look up something on Wikipedia, but you keep scrolling and forget what you wanted to look up so you frantically scroll back to the thing that prompted you to think about looking the other (un)related thing up in the first place

The Bop - earnestly insisting that you’re not anxious because the other person sees your leg bouncing and thinks that you’re about to go postal

The Poison Dart - hearing someone say something problematic out loud and freezing because, while you want to correct them gently, you also feel intense dread and RSD that if you even so much as suggest dissent the person will immediately and commensurately stab you to death or snap their fingers and open a trapdoor to hell beneath you

The Ghost Breath - realizing you haven’t texted your friend back/at all/in 3 weeks and thinking “Hmmm, I need to do that” and then you don’t do it and much more time passes by 

The Stim Package - eating an entire family-sized bag of chips in one sitting because having something to chew on helped you concentrate, at least a little

The Bullfrog - going to get something that you don’t use often but you know exactly where it is and then it’s not there and you just keep going back to that spot 5 more times before realizing you lost it or it’s somewhere else completely different (like, not even in the same building)

The Morning Mist - regularly forgetting what recent life events actually happened and which ones were from extremely vivid dreams

The Seesaw Rivet - feeling like a wounded child who is about to get in trouble during every interaction you have even as you are entering your mid-to-late-20s and genuinely wondering when that pattern is ever going to stop if ever

The Pull-Apart Muffin - having ADHD and about 3 other diagnoses and wondering what is even what anymore

Izuku was ready to give up.

He's so injured and exhausted that he's literally falling over. He can't even stand anymore.

"A reckless rampage, born of anxiety and impatience...you take on the world alone...to the point of exhaustion and ruin."

He's been working himself to the bone for so long he's famous for it. He wants so badly to win this war and save everyone that he'll never admit how broken he is.

But I think, deep down, he knows it. He's suffering. This is destroying him. Look at how lifeless his eyes have become.

He's trying to convince himself to fight, but he's not even trying to break free. He says he has to master One for All completely so everyone can smile again, together. But Izuku's not smiling anymore. He's beaten, broken, and just so tired of this. But then...

But then he's saved. By the one person who can get him back on his feet-

Kacchan. His symbol of victory.

"If there's anything that could bolster Izuku Midoriya now, it would be..." .

It would be Kacchan. He is, canonically, the one thing that can get Izuku to rally. The one person who can truly save him.

And the light immediately returns to Izuku's eyes.

Save to win, and win to save, y'all.

”The paradox is that to become heroes, we must act unheroically. Otherwise, we’ll never measure up to those capable of greatness. Emulating our idols isn’t enough. Surley you’ve felt this before… How the hopes and dreams of childhood now grow heavy as burdens? As if we are cursed.”

[Monoma to Shinsou, chapter 211]

A big part of ADHD (and Graves' disease, which can give similar symptoms) is feeling like it's your fault somehow.

That if you did just try harder or put "more effort in", you'd somehow stop struggling.

There can be times where you're at the absolute end of your rope, emotionally and physically exhausted, and you'll still feel like pushing yourself because you "could" be productive right now.

I'm here to tell you to STOP. When you reach those moments, do not suffer in an attempt to get more work done - let's be honest, if you're in that state, the work you do isn't going to reflect your capability anyway.

Right now, you might feel like "productivity" is defined by working or studying or something similar.

This is a lie. Right now, productivity is defined by self-care. Don't try to push the exhaustion aside, even if there are deadlines on the horizon. Right now, focus on keeping YOU healthy enough that you don't end up breaking down. If you've already broken down, now's the time to stop it from happening again.

Drink some cold water, and eat some food. This does NOT have to involve cooking either! Have a microwave meal. Eat cereal out of a mug or a glass. Don't have the executive function available to make a sandwich? Eat the ham slices and bread by themselves.

Can't find the energy to wash up, but you need dishes? Rinse a dish with boiled water. No, it's not the same, but it'll do for now, just for the moment.

The washing up and the cleaning and the deadlines and the stress can WAIT.

Productivity isn't just stuff that affects other people. It's also doing stuff that helps YOU.

You won't be able to properly do the other stuff if your body and mind are shutting down.

happy new year!

Do not “wait to get worse”.

I don’t care if you’ve “been worse”

Your body is tired of this.

You deserve help in this moment.

happy august 1st y'all

Omg astruc just said on twitter that max is rather ace and alix is rather aro (it was an answer for someone who asked if they were together or they are going to be)

Just had a look on Twitter to confirm and yeah this is legit!

That’s neat! I do hope that we get more on-screen LGBT+ rep in future seasons, it would be pretty awesome.

[moswaldo]

[moswaldo]

pls give me 1(one) reason aces have ever been oppressed, and 1(one) example of aces being a part of lgbt history(before 2004 at least) and then maybe i’ll consider the idea that aces belong in the lgbt community lol
