For the love of god if your native language is different from the majority language of the country you’re living in don’t raise your baby speaking the local language. Either have each parent speak to them in a different language or only speak your native language at home. The kid will be okay. Get your native language in their head. You may think you’re helping them in the long term giving them the local language but no. When they’re an adult they’ll wonder why you never taught them your language. They can and will learn the local language in school. They’ll be okay. Produce more bilingual children. They are good for society.

Hey sorry I didn't talk to you for over a week time keeps moving too fast

seeing people casually talking about spending $30,000 on a wedding makes me feel a special kind of nauseous when every single person i know has to debate if $40 on ordering pizza is worth it

I’m always shocked how abled people are able to always be like. Doing things. If I don’t have like 3 full days of doing calm, ‘me’ activities a week (or some equivalent, i.e. four half days and one full day) I run out of spoons fast. I start to get incredibly stressed out and soon enough my system goes from usually having someone in front to being dissociated the majority of the time. I get brain fog and I can’t think. My body gets physically tired and weak as all my effort goes into whatever I’m doing instead of being calm.

I need to have time to engage with my special interests. I need to have time to rest my brain and body, both of which run out of resources relatively quickly.

Then I hear my friends saying they do, like, 2-3 activities every day, every single day, and the spaces between those activities are ALSO filled with doing things. Grabbing groceries in between class and a meeting with friends. Submitting something for the university paper between studying with a study group and getting a costume ready for a party. How?? I need to spend the whole day and all my mental resources on one thing.

It feels so unfair sometimes. I feel like I have less time in a day because my resources are so limited.

i hate the way mental illness is conceptualized in general but specifically on here where there’s this weird focus on disorders defining what symptoms you have rather than disorders being the constructed result of the symptoms that you have, which exist outside of the framework of the disorder

He is exactly right, children should not be humiliated by school lunch debt.

i hate it when i cant even write a poem about something because its too obvious. like in the airbnb i was at i guess it used to be a kids room cause you could see the imprint of one little glow in the dark star that had been missed and painted over in landlord white. like that's a poem already what's the point

ADHD is telling yourself you’ll get everything done on your day off and then not having the motivation to do any of it when the time comes

The worst thing in the entire world is when you’re sweeping a big pile of dirt into a dustpan and it leaves that little coke line of grit behind. No matter how you position your pan or your broom and no matter how many times you sweep over it your outcome cannot change. As immovable as fate. I hate it so
