”Failing doesn’t mean you have to quit”- Tips from a university student with ADHD📚

So I’ve been in uni for like….*squints at calendar* almost 5 years, (yikes) and in that time I’ve learned the value of failing.

More specificly I failed a lot of tests, handed in a bunch of assignments late and what I learned from these experiences is that failing an exam…or several of them, is not the end of the world and perhaps more importantly not the end of your plans for the future. I was convinced at several points during these years that because I failed an exam or even a whole course, it would be the end of my academic future and possibly career. I never thought I’d ever graduate but here I am five years later with a bachelor’s degree and now on my way to a master’s.

Failing doesn’t mean you have to quit what you’re doing or give up on your dreams.

It just means you have to get up and try again and if it’s one thing people with ADHD are good at it’s trying. We’re always trying to do better, improve our lives, and as long as you keep trying you’ve never truly failed.

You see, I don't speak much when I meet new people and they think I'm an introvert or dislike them, while I actually keep quiet because I don't wanna them to know that I'm an idiot.

So much of ADHD can be boiled down to "I'll just"...

I'll just be a minute!

I'll just finish this thing I do which I love and is neverending, then move on to that urgent task.

I'll just leave this here for now.

I'll just call them later.

I'll just put on my all-is-fine mask.

The Finch app has been helping me improve my life one baby step at a time, literally! Lol (referring to Baby Death)

And my little companions are well taken care of, as well as my tasks!

Just look at her and her room now!! 🥰🥰🥰

Realised that I have been regularly posting for nearly 6 months!!!!!! As an individual with ADHD that’s impressive.

DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO (help me)

[adhdemonstuff]

Why I don’t like going to the doctor:

1) It always starts with my parents telling me I don’t need to go to the doctor.

2) Then I sit in a waiting room for 3 hours.

3) I get in with the doctor, they either

A) tell me I should have come in sooner

Or

B) say come back if it’s still bugging you in a week or two

4) When I go back they say why didn’t you come in sooner.

It’s mainly because my body doesn’t really process pain properly so sometimes I don’t really notice something is up until most people would be really uncomfortable and concerned. Doctors ask me how I’m feeling or to rate my pain but I fractured several bones in my ankle and was still able to walk around for 3 weeks.

I think our medical systems need to adapt better to neurodivergent patients with abnormal pain tolerances as it’s incredibly frustrating to have to explain that you aren’t faking every time you go to the doctor because sometimes you genuinely don’t notice until something is really bad.

How did i function before adhd meds. If I am off of it for one day I will pass out with exhaustion and get incredibly emotional.

it's so fucking comical to me how "audhder" will sometimes autocorrect to "adhere" LIKE NAH BRO YOUR CLEARLY MISSING THE POINT. I DON;T ADHERE TO ANYTHING EXCEPT THE MIX OF MY AUTISM COMPULSIVE OBSESSIONS AND MY ADHD IMPULSIVE DUMBASSERY COMING TOGETHER TO CREATE THE WORST DECISION EVER (ONE AFTER ANOTHER)

*Crying hysterically on the phone with my mom*

Me: ”Omg mom I can’t find my phone anywhere! I’m going to be late for class! I don’t know what to do!😭😭😭😭”

Mom: ”Sorry sweetie I can’t talk right now. I can’t find my phone anywhere and I’m late for a meeting, talk to you later”

*hangs up*

This has been an ADHD-joke fresh from my rotted brain, you’re welcome and I’m sorry💀💀💀

My ADHD self picks something off the floor

Me: Wait! Does this mean I'm a fake and I don't have ADHD?

"Doing, doing, doing, getting nothing done."

Possibly the most ADHD sentence in my whole novel 🤔

word search games are my favorite time waster. forget tiktok- why watch random videos of random people doing random things for hours on end when i can waste the same amount of time finding every word in the english language except the ones the level wants me to find so i can get bonus points? wayyy more fun
