Despite knowing all the coping strategies, this has happened to me today (and will continue to happen)

Small reminder (to myself) that no matter how hard we try not every day will be the same - and that’s not a personal failure.

I wish the people around me would've understood how much hormones can affect my ADHD symptoms. Some days, I just can't get any work done with how bad my brain fog gets and I feel like all I can do is ride it out (and try to be gentle with myself).

I have no idea how I’ve managed to stick to this project for this long (dopamine from the engagement), but I did it!!! Woah.

To tell you a tiny secret, compared to my artist peers I’m pretty slow to learn and improve and have issues imagining things in 3D. Mind you, I’ve done ungodly amounts of drawing practice before my first ever comic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

DON‘T YOU EVER LET YOUR PROGRESS DISCOURAGE YOU

[adhd-alien]

Sorry if it’s weird to post this so soon after finally being back but I made some things

A Tote Bag to show others your overwhelm level, a Tumbler to motivate you to drink more, info posters and charms for different ADHD types

[adhd-alien]

Shame is one of the hardest things about ADHD for me. I'm back and the book is finished but instead of feeling proud, I feel ashamed for not having managed to stay active, manage my household better or even shower regularly.

I wasn't sure what comic "would be good to come back with", so I just wrote about what I'm actually dealing with right now.

I’m so happy to be back and hope someone still gets some value from my comics!

[adhd-alien]

Guess who finally can go back to making comics (to post online)!!!!!!!!!!!

[adhd-alien]

This is my fan translation of Kairi Seidouitusei Shougai no Chiguhagu na Hibi by Tokin! I love this manga so much. It’s a wonderful autobiography about DID and a representation with a tone we don’t usually get in English. Tokin-sensei gave me permission to translate the prologue and share it with an English audience because I know so many people would want to read it! I am not going to translate the entire text, but I do really really want to encourage people to submit it in this month’s Seven Seas interest survey!! Please help support Tokin-sensei’s wonderful work!

(Submitting with the Japanese title I wrote above or a link to this post would be best for clarity, my English title is not a literal translation)

Update from Aga!! She sent this photo:

Thank you SO much everyone!!! I was chatting to the German Organization and Aga while things were unfolding yesterday, and we are blown away of what has already happened so far!

Dear Friends, on behalf of My Beloved Dogs and Cats and myself - I would like to thank YOU all very much for what you are doing, for every donation, for sharing, and for the good words! Thank YOU for giving us hope. Hope that there will be a tomorrow for us...that we will stay together. THANK YOU

Applause for Aga and what she is doing - and it can't be easy to suddenly showing your face in front of an audience thats as big as mine 👏

And again, thank you all so much, it means the world to me seeing how you all support what's important to me - every like, comment, share or donation. And your words of encouragement. Thank you!

Hey everyone!

I know I haven't been on here in a while, but I come with something that is really important to me, so I hope you can forgive me 💦 I adopted a dog from poland last year and got to know the woman who built her own shelter to save animals.

Aga started out working in a public shelter and conditions there were HORRIBLE. She took over it but they kept cutting funds, so at one point she decided to indebt herself to build her own shelter.

Now, she needs help keeping that shelter open

gofund.me/10086e61

It would mean the world to me if you could help in any way - sharing, liking, anything. ❤️

Update, I Hope im not annoying y’all by reblogging this too much! (Is there a better way to update? I’ve been off social media too long…)

I’m talking to the head of the German organization on WhatsApp right now and she is speechless 😸 with each voice message she sends she sounds more and more just absolutely floored, stunned. Thank you all SO SO much!!

Aga had some really rough days thinking she has to close her shelter so we assume she is already in bed. (I don’t think the German lady will sleep tonight). Will update once Aga wakes up :)

Other than the gofundme there is only a polish page, this one is the official one: http://afn.pl/

Ive Found them originally through their Facebook page AFN Fundacja!

Then there is the German organization that was specifically created to help this shelter from Germany, but they have less information than the website and… they’re in German 😸 http://www.heimatlosepfoten.de/

Mad I forgot to add this but this is an explanation in case that the problem source is INERTIA (explained in my previous comic). So, neurological-motivational. ADHD Paralysis can have many other reasons like overwhelm, decision fatigue, not knowing where to start etc!!

Ok, I know I often have issues just getting up and starting a task that will only take me 5 minutes in the end. But WHY is that? What happens in my brain?

This topic is very intricate and hard to explain in simple terms - I gave it my best shot, so please excuse the masses of text! Split into 2 images for easier reading
