Big mistake to go into a career that is 50% reading contracts, when sometimes, the very sight of a contract makes me physically ill.

#though to be honest I think I'm just....burnt out. the last couple weeks have felt like I'm dragging myself from day to day #I literally read 4 books yesterday trying to essentially over-stimulate my brain into getting something done #I woke up at 5am this morning! I will wake up at 5am tomorrow too!#I need a vacation very badly and I'm not even going to plan anything for this one. just quietly sit at home.#sleep past 5am! the dream.#no wonder the company has to secretly manipulate you

why can't we just have things as they are. why do you people always need the latest model of something you like. will you die if things continue to age? why is old content never good enough?

#there always needs to be a remake or a sequel or something like why. oh my god why #just rewatch it i don't understand any of you!! this obsession with new anime remakes!! why!! they're never as good!!#find peace with what exists now!! reread rewatch draw fanart write etc etc why are you begging for new content constantly #stimulate your brain in other ways. you people depend on modern anime in ways that are so bizarre bc it's never even that good!!#also i hate to call it content but i couldn't come up with another word

Music to get me pumped up and music to fall asleep to are the exact same

#i have adhd #i need either silence or something energetic enough to provide sufficient stimulation #to massage my brain into resting #i cant do calm ambience stuff it’s not enough #god i wish i could i love the idea of it so much #but it just leaves me antsy #metal and edm? honk shnoo honk shnoo #my parents had a classical music cd they used to play to help me sleep #and one of the songs was the hallelujah chorus #and that stuff is NOT chill lmao #so suffice to say i have merely evolved with time lol #adhd #actually adhd #neurodivergent #the only issue is headphones not comfy #bc i am a side sleeper #:(#it’s very sad

*sits down, while holding a bottle of soda from the movie theater*

I'll patiently wait for the fics about the Super Mario Bros Movie despicting Mario's aftermath of the whole ordeal, with the adrenaline wearing off and he processing all that happened. How close Luigi's death was if he didn't save him at the last minute, how much he was beaten up badly by everyone and how almost scorched himself (and Luigi) at the end. Knowing that everything came to be by being stubborn. Then coming to terms with not only his new separation anxiety, ptsd, and broken bones and bruises but with the realization that "Holy shit, all that happened in less than 48 hours."

*sips sprite*

I know some of you have him as your little skrunkly, blorbo, little fella and also adore and seek angst and whump like maniacs who finds pure pleasure and happinness in putting your favorite character through hell and back, twice even. Then, shall you all enjoy this and write your hearts content. ❤

#the super mario bros movie #mario bros #fanfic #ooooh my new hyperfixation is here #there is already 91 fics on ao3 but most of them are bowuigi and/or luigi centric #which is fine and great and amazing #that being said #i want to see mario's whump #i may have a crush on him #tbh #i blame mystar21_'s fanarts and the movie for making him a little silly polite and heroish fella who is full of brotherly love #i just want more content my brain needs the stimulation #let the 5'1 tall italian red plumber be tear apart by angsty shit #he deserves it / affectionable ❤#spoilers #super mario #i know you are out there person who saw the movie and got a massive brainrot about it and its itching to write something and post it on ao3 #and i will find you.#mario movie #the super mario movie spoilers

i think this website may be allergic to the idea that most medications aren't for neurological stuff

#just saw a post that was an image with the text ''don't forget your meds!'' (this part is good)#next to the autism creature on top of a bottle labeled '''brain helpies'''#and i'm trying to parse my hatred in a way that spares the cringe. i am full of rage #but i will dabble in hating on the cringe a little. what medication is for the autism creature exactly??#i thought the ''brain helpies'' for autism were universally dangerous and/or scams sold to horrid parents #it's comorbid with adhd but jfc it is SOOOOO inconsequential to forget a stimulant for a day #even compared to other quality of life meds. i'd rather remember to take my thyroid medicine and not be lethargic #and then. do i need to get into my health anxiety. please fucking GOD do not forget something that keeps you healthy #forgetting a stimulant makes you less productive in a day #forgetting something like a cholesterol medication will SLOWLY KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#is it REALLY health anxiety to think one is more important than the other????#sorry i'm in a bad mood today. take your brain meds congrats on having a perfect body otherwise

i regret to inform you all that i just did ~30 minutes of basic beginner yoga and it did, in fact, help shut up the hobgoblin that lurks in my brain.

#don’t you hate it when participating in self care actually helps you feel better :/#if you see this post and you’re not feeling great:#1) drink some cold water. add lemon or mint or cucumber or strawberry if you find plain water to be ‘meh’ on a sensory level #2) once again i regret to inform you that box breathing does in fact work. alternatively if you need something more intense #look up guided meditations for progressive muscle relaxation #3) stimulate your brain. it can be anything. anything! read or count backwards from 100 or go for a walk if you’re up for it #4) take a shower if you can. it really does work wonders on my anxious brain. if you can’t try wetting a warm towel with a little water #sometimes you’ve gotta parent yourself yknow #because something is better than nothing and progress is progress #you’ve got this! i believe in you!#yes this is Very cheesy but idc. cringe culture is dead i will never apologize for being earnest and sincere #rambles #not figure skating related

why do i need an english degree to be a copyeditor. is it not enough to have had a lifelong career with the autism grammar police

#hah. thought you could disable me? watch me profit off you #GETTING PAID TO BE PEDANTIC??? SOUNDS LIKE A DREAM!#is this funnier with the typo #the tism wouldn't let me leave the typo uncorrected lol #it used to say 'engilsh'#autism #currently unemployed #funemployment ended long ago though #this is just a career option i'm considering #could be something that finally stimulates my brain enough without being too close to using up my artistic energy #that i need for my own projects #audhd

brain is doing...a thing? meds are.....good?

#to clarify #i asked to switch to non-stimulant adhd meds #because of my other fun health conditions i think im way too sensitive to stimulants #so while it worked for the executive functioning part of adhd it also made my heart rate super high and kinda gave me way too much energy #so i couldnt really like....use it the way i was supposed to? i ended up not using it unless i had to get something done that day #which like....works until you realize that its not just Big Things that need to get done and theres a whole bunch of little things that #just arent happening. at all. so! non stimulant version of medication. im a few days in and it takes a lil while to ramp up to working #but so far? im not anxious or super energetic but i still get the brain feeling that i kinda always thought was how the meds were supposed #to be working. like. brain is calm and clear. im not hopping from thing to thing or sitting staring at my computer waiting for dopamine #again only been a few days it takes a couple weeks to build up more. but i have very high hopes for not being in adhd hell all the time

I’m really starting to feel like Gregor Samsa now

#exjw #going pomo #my mom knows I’m gay and also “opposed” but my dad doesn’t yet so I’m hiding in my room #So naturally I don’t feel well; but I’m going to work anyway because I don’t feel as bad there as I do here #Now all I need is for my dad to throw something at me (I don’t think he would but I wouldn’t be surprised if he did)#I think my mom is hoping that maybe when I start ADHD meds I’ll “come to my senses”#because she asked if I thought my ADHD had anything to do with my decisions #And she went on and on yesterday reading stuff she researched about these specific meds #Like… no? If anything the ADHD meds will make me pack up faster because then I won’t be as inhibited to gtfo #She oddly doesn’t seem as angry/sad as I thought she would; so maybe she hasn’t fully accepted it yet #I start meds tomorrow btw so we’ll see what happens. Hell of a time to be messing with my brain chemistry sjdjdjdjdndndn #This will either make things way better or way worse. We’ll see #I’m just afraid that they’ll make my already VERY high anxiety worse because they are stimulants #the anxiety wasn’t high before but it is now that I’m obligated to tell my dad knowing how much he hates gays #I don’t want to suddenly pass out projectile vomit or shit myself; because that’s what high anxiety does to me #I’ve almost passed out twice because of nerves in the past year in reaction to this situation #one such incident occurring just three days ago… while projectile vomiting

It's not hard to do so WHY IS IT SO HARD. My teacher posts filled in copies of the notes online so I just have to copy in down so WHY IS COPYING IT DOWN SO HARD. I fucking hate this. I don't care to do my work because I know I can pass the tests but fuck I don't wanna fail. But GOD it's so hard to force myself to do the work.

#kirexa vents #ig #i fuckjy hate this. its so easy to do i just cant. i could but i can't. please tell me someone knows what i mean #I hate doing things that are too easy because theres NO mental stimulation. if its easy and mind numbing thats fine but this needs me #to actively pay attention to something that is SO boring.#my brain hates it #i hate that i cant do it because i dont wanna fucking fail but i still need to do my work if id ont wanna fail #oh fuck i have 1% posting this before my phone dies lmao

ive been genuinely distressed about how bad my adhd has been this past month

#why did it take me 3 hours to make breakfast today. thats so embarrassing #i haev class in less than an hour and its killing me im so frustrated. thats 2 hours where i cant do anything #i am on the verge of just breaking down about it tbh because it never feels like i have enough time or energy #and it bothers me how much stimulation my brain needs constantly to the point where i cannot step away from socials cause my brain 'itches'#and when i do step away from socials my attention is so scattered that i forget what im doing #or it feels like there's zero cohesion to the step by step actions i need to take to finish a task #i hate adhd more than anything!! more than my trauma!! more than my physical issues!!#i normally leave these types of vents on my locked twitter but im feeling the tumblr tag complaints format lately lol #im just. so mad about how a lot of thinigs ive wanted to do in my life have been so so delayed because of my scattering interests -#-or that I really only have 4 hours in my day not occupied by me getting heavily distracted by something #fucking. oc projects from since i was 16 not coming into fruition ever. that is so . frustrating.

trying to take my meds in the afternoon instead of the morning has also turned out to be a bust so >.< back to taking it in the morning tomorrow even if i feel it wear off by mid afternoon

#i think having it in the morning really helps with setting the day up for some kind of success #bc today i found it so hard to make myself do anything i needed or wanted in the morning even after i started it like I usually do #and ofc bc i couldnt start anything i ended up falling asleep bc nothing was occupying my brain except being upset that i couldnt #start anything i wanted and needed to do. so like. >.>#learning moment ig and a brief reminder of why i really really have to remember to take my meds everyday and a decent time #i think the difference is clearer now than it was before bc ive been taking it daily in the morning #and ive accepted that im hopeless without it #a bit frustrating but i do think it was good that i tried to change something and got to see #that it isnt working so quickly #also note to self stop drinking coffee again i can feel myself forming that addiction and thats not good when im already taking a stimulant

im literally so fucking fast at reading but only when im doing it for fun. its not fair. its not fair

#the passion that comes so naturally to me with things i enjoy is like #completely sealed away and inaccessible the moment i try to apply it to something that isnt for fun #like i KNOW i have a very powerful mind that is a boon to me with hobbies #but not even controlled prescription stimulants are able to fully unlock it. its just not fair #its so frustrating. i wish my brain worked #like i dont need to be PASSIONATE about everythign but #everything else feels like a slog
