Pretty great stickers by this artist

By the way here's a little cheat: if there's something you'd love as a poster, like an old comic cover or something but no poster exists, either find or make the highest resolution image you can (even if you have to use one of those automatic online upscalers; better than nothing!) make an account on redbubble or vistaprint and upload it. On redbubble you'll have to keep it private, on vistaprint it's private automatically because that's a site strictly for "personal office use." I've done this a few times over the years and they never took notice or cared that it wasn't my art as long as I wasn't selling it publicly. Restaurants do this all the time for their kitsch decor and I don't think a human even checks it before it ships out. They might if you were printing tons of the same one because then it's obvious you're selling them, but otherwise they just like the extra money and you get consequence-free pirated wall art.

This may seem like a meme, but it is real. It's formatted like this to get people's attention and be memorable, in the hopes that maybe it saves some lives.

Edit 1: If any of you are unsure that this is real, check out the notes of folks talking about it.

Are you currently struggling with … MEDICAL BILLS? 

… Perhaps you should try … FAPping! 

Financial Aid Policy 

Did you know that most hospitals and some doctor’s offices are what is known as a 501r, or “medical non-profit”? 

This means they are legally required to have a “financial aid policy” or “charity care policy” 

What is means, is that they are LEGALLY REQUIRED under United States Law to provide FREE OR DISCOUNTED healthcare, and also to FORGIVE EXISTING MEDICAL DEBT to individuals with financial difficulty. 

Basically, every household making und $100K a year is eligible for a reduction in their medical costs. 

Billing departments often try to push people to get on a “payment plan” if someone asks, but don’t accept it! 

Ask if they have a Charity Care or Financial Aid policy “Based On Income.” 

If it looks like you might not qualify? 

Apply anyway. They try to scare people away with scary processes. 

YOU QUALIFY. EVEN IF YOU ARE ALREADY IN COLLECTIONS.

To do or not to do?

Pacing and Activity Decision Chart*

A. Will it cause so much pain or fatigue that I can't function for days?

If NO then :

B. Given current symptoms will I be able to complete the task?

(If you answer YES to question B go to D, if NO then go to C)

If YES then :

C. Can I make it manageable by:

Splitting the task into smaller sections?

OR

Using an adaptation or aid to make it easier?

OR

Asking for help with challenging parts of the activity?

(If you answer YES to C go straight to D)

D. Is there enough recovery time between now and when I next need to function?

If you answer YES/PROBABLY to D then LET'S DO

THIS THING!

If you answer NO to both question C and D then:

Best not. It's OK for an emergency, but not for routine tasks.

Disclaimer:

*A simplified version, The full version would fill a book. Process varies between individuals.

**Most activity can aggravate symptoms, so it's not about avoiding pain and fatigue, but trying to keep them manageable. Trial and error is required to find this level and it can change over time.

people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.
