when you don’t have the energy to make food so you just don’t eat

When ALL of my symptoms show up at once…

Starting my Saturday off right with a headache of unknown origin first thing in the morning.

You ever get those moments where you’ve had no spoons ALL DAY but then suddenly you’re home and you’re hit with a few spoons so you start cleaning the house but then you’re forced to stop midway because suddenly the spoons are gone again? 

The floor is half-swiffered, but at least I vacuumed.

Another day of brain fog. I spilled the same mug of hot chocolate tWICE this morning in two dIFFERENT locations!! 

I left my mug on a flat surface on the couch, forgot it was there, sat down too roughly and boop, there it went. 

Then, after I cleaned it up, I brought it into the kitchen. 

But I had a bagel in the toaster and I knew--I knew--that if I didn’t put it down before it popped, it would scare me when it finally did. 

My mug was half an inch off the counter when the toaster popped and boop!! 

I spilled it a second time I was so spooked.

Unbelievable.

Trying to explain how my illness works…

Came home just relaxing on the couch and I’m hit with all these random palpitations while I’m trying to eat like a normal person. My chest was just fluttering like crazy for a solid 10 minutes. Every time I tried to eat a spoonful of soup, I felt so nauseous. My feet were up and everything. Does anyone else get this? I feel like everything is flaring up for me this week...

Okay so first things first. Today was a wild day. Both me and my boss have ADHD and were both absolutely fucking suffering with brain fog all day. And what do you get when you put two people with ADHD and brain fog together in a work environment? A hot mess. 

We’re sitting in the office, she’s downstairs and I’m upstairs, and we’re all trying to get some work done but instead of getting work done, my boss and I are texting each other, sending gifs, having a conversation of meows across the building, and talking about anything but work. That whole experience was a first for me. 

Then had to go to see a client and somehow act like my brain wasn’t melting out of my ears. Yikes.
