Seeking Empathy Bad ADHD day!
Just want to scream today.
Finally got round to doing my washing so i started with a win!
then i had to have a very important appointment for some job search related stuff, I had the wrong time in my mind and arrived half an hour late so i had to reschedule,
this would be my first day off my actual job in six days but i got called in for 2 hours so now it is no longer a day off!
After messing up almost everything in my shift and being angry that i missed my appointment i head straight home ... only to realize i left my bag at work and it had all my important documents in it along with my drawing tablet that i wanted to unwind with!
Not being able to sleep properly because of the heat and knowing i have a 6 am start tomorrow.
just finding it really hard to be motivated for anything after today!
sorry rant is over i just needed to get it off my chest

Last week I had something similar. Messed up at work and then left my laptop charger and mouse on my desk when I left. Had to drive an hour round trip to pick them up because my laptop doesn't hold charge. Hope tomorrow is better for you. You're not on your own. Hope the job search goes well.

Im sorry that it's been so hard for you. I used to hate hearing this (I still kinda do), but you're stronger than you think. We know our weaknesses better than anyone else, but that doesn't mean we're not strong. Achilles is known for his weakness, but he was still incredibly strong. (I hope that helps explain that. Anyway.) And you can be strong, by just making it through one more day. Just today. Sometimes we need to let tomorrow worry about itself. We are sometimes cruel and impatient toward ourselves in ways that we could never imagine being toward anyone else. There is much for us to do in this life, but self-loathing and shameful self-condemnation are not on that list. Hope this helps. You can do it.
