THANK YOUU I now have the motivation to do EVERYTHING‼️

there are, as best I can tell, two grave advice sins that you can commit when giving advice that will render whatever you're saying useless and probably make people think you're a dick.

"I don't have this problem, and I've never had this problem, but I'm pretty sure this is how you should be solving this problem"

"I had this problem and solved it this way, and that means EVERYONE can solve it this way and it's the One True Solution."

The first means you're uninformed on the realities of the problem and there's a 90% chance whatever is going to fall out of your mouth has already been tried or has already been recommended a billion times. It doesn't matter if you read it online or heard someone else recommend it, unless you're asking the person about the variables in their situation first and really getting into the nitty gritty, you're probably just sounding like a pre-recorded flight safety message. Thank you for telling me how to buckle up and where the exits are, but nobody here is really explaining what I'm supposed to do about the clown with a chainsaw in the fourth row.

The second one is extra annoying because you could have given good, actionable advice if you'd actually thought longer about it than "problem solved, this is the answer to the math test, byeeeee". Motherfucker what we needed were the notes you used to arrive at the answer. Show your work. Because somebody else might be working with completely different variables, and if you hand them "the answer is 2" when they have a different number set, you're just handing them failure. If you hand them the equation, however, then they can apply some of it to their own problem and arrive at their own correct solution. For instance, if acknowledging a negative thought reduces it's effectiveness, the advice isn't necessarily "just accept the thought and move on!" it's examining *why* that acceptance helped. Perhaps because it removed guilt from the equation, meaning you were carrying one less thing while you tried to move forward? Great! That's useful! Someone can go "okay, what about this is making me feel guilty and what can I do to feel less guilty?" and then they have a workable approach.

Even just making the space for the fact that your solution is not the Only Solution can help fix either of these. Expand ur minds. Accept that the myriad of human circumstance will mean that we're all working with a different starting, middle, and end point.

Thinking. About void. He likes to read. He can't do it for too long at a time since it strains his damaged socket and gives him a headache, but i can imagine, whenever he gets really invested in a book. The tip of his tail will twitch and still and curl in a reflection of his emotions. Same thing probably happens with movies, or just really anything he gets immersed in. His markings might even shift slightly if he’s super invested. Widening slightly in surprise, fuzzing at the edges with happiness, sharpening with tension.

He's always so stoic, but the tells are there. He’s a lot more expressive than he might seem at first.

one day ill be annoying ab my selfship again . although i enjoy that ppl enjoy my writing most of this is entirely self indulgent, projection, and for me . being so real .

[pileofblanks]

You ever just need to do a task but you feel like EVERY SINGLE ATOM of your body IS COMPLETELY UTTERLY REPULSED by even a thought of doing said task or even a part of said task

so you just sit there staring at it

knowing it will end only badly if you do not do it

but you feel like you are physically unable to do it

yeah :(

[ratgingi]

ah lads not again

I would like to draw the Great God Grove characters again, yes. I will be honest that last drawing I drew with the meteor was pretty much the only thing I drew in the past month. It's been hard, folks. But I really would like to draw these characters again, I want to, I had a lot of fun with all of the big steam illustrations and feel I have a lot more I want to draw. Executive dysfunction is evil and I hope I can draw without exploding into ashes soon. I see how much love and passion you guys have for the characters and I really want to continue to pay that back in some way.

It took me 2 days to read all of "in my life i love you more" which is longer than it takes me to read any fanfic because usually I just skim read. This one, I took my time and I freaking dissected that thang. Its beautiful!!!!! I love it so much bro omg (loud,obnoxious sobbing noises)

I love the fact that the language you use in it had me looking up so many words, you had me expand my vocabulary. And it also goes with how he'd think and talk its so cool omg

And then thespius: OUGHHHH THAT GUY AUGHHHHHHH

AND THEN THE WORDS FOR HUZZLEMUG !!!

*explodes you with my mind because im too excited*

WAA i have finally escaped the executive dysfunction mines long enough to respond to this, thank you so much!! qwq i'm so flattered to hear that you took your time w my lil fic, over time it's come to mean a lot to me both in its self-indulgence and how much folks have enjoyed it <33

also i was goin through my procreate folder today and realized i never posted this guy lmao, take the them for your kind and lovely words uwu

AND THEN THIS MALFUNCTIONING BITCH GOT MEDICATED

got me that concerta babyyy! I'm really hoping it helps at least take the edge off, my ADHD has been particularly rough these past several months, there are a lot of bees in my head and I'm hoping this will help them chill out a bit LOL (or at least put them to good work so they aren't running into each other in there!) The only thing I'm a bit concerned about is my blood pressure, I had to send it into the physician because obv this is a stimulant and we want to make sure it doesn't make my heart explode LMAO I do unfortunately have naturally high blood pressure, this is due to a combination of genetics, diet/lifestyle and the physical toll my unmanaged mental health has taken on me. BUT she mentioned that the medication should help with the anxiety and semi-constant state of fight or flight that I'm in (which definitely isn't helping my blood pressure LOL), and also considering I can't drink coffee on this stuff it should hopefully balance itself out (though the medication being a stimulant means I should hopefully see a decrease in caffeine dependency anyways as I was basically using caffeine to self-medicate). I'm starting with 18mg for a week and then switching to the 27mg! After that I have another follow-up appointment to check up on how I'm doing, and, if all goes well, continue my prescription!

I will still have to make some lifestyle changes, but as I mentioned to my physician, those changes will hopefully be a lot easier to make with the medication managing my executive dysfunction (at least that's what it'll hopefully do). I've always found it really difficult to maintain good habits with my brain because, duh, ADHD! The executive dysfunction really does make a mountain out of the simplest efforts on a daily basis, so I'm really hoping this will help me focus on getting on a regular schedule again where I can make time for my health. If this fixes my issues with sleep, I'll actually cry.

Assuming my physician doesn't email me back with a "do not take, you will explode" by the end of the day, I'll be starting it tomorrow! I'm terrified but excited! Wish me luck y'all! (•̀ᴗ•́)و

Executive dysfunction is evil because you'll be like "hey I really wanna do that thing I like and makes me happy :]" and then you Don't Do It and keep not doing it until the sun explodes

[s0ull3ss-p3rs0n]

I need more rote fancontent or I will explode tbh, ughhvhh executive dysfunction why can't I just fill the tag myself for absolutely no reason when I'm experiencing visions that need to be made real

[snek-of-eden]

would anybody be cool with me venting to them for a little bit? nothing terrible or anything, just stressed over life and have a medley of small annoying injuries and lots of deadlines n adhd/anxiety right now and kinda just want to go rahhhhh in someone’s dms. maybe it’ll let me actually get over my executive dysfunction for now 😭

always happy to return the favour, usually i’m pretty chill and optimistic but today’s been head-explode-y lol.
