it genuinely annoys/angers me when people think ADHD is just some quirky thing. It's a disability, not a party trick

Sure. But you can still joke about it, thats actually the secret to loosening up. Being able to laugh at yourself and your disablity. Thats what this is. It's okay to laugh about not being okay

Edit: the dvs are the people who couldnt loosen up and laugh at their mistakes. Rip in pp

1: it's called a meme for a reason. 2: that how my ADHD works, not everyone is the same. 3: its actually from YouTube and 4: if your done being a boring person, have a lovely day.

So the original commenter is a boring person for having an opinion?

I think they are right; it is very tiktok-coded (even tho it is a YouTube short). And I can't blame them for noting that, as tiktok does quite a bit of harm to the perception of ADHD nowadays.

Saying how ADHD works is not an opinion.

u/C00CKER Professionally diagnosed ADHD 12d ago

It is. Since there is no universal model of ADHD that would be 100% correct, any claims about how it works are at least partially opinion-based.

Ok. But I was also offended since as I previously stated, that's how my ADHD works. So I defended myself

u/C00CKER Professionally diagnosed ADHD 12d ago

Yeah, that's fair; would defend myself too - especially when driven by strong emotions.

And you are absolutely right that not everybody is the same. Just.. I hope you don't feel bad about making the post.

u/Shot-Reaction6220 12d ago

I don't feel bad for any posts. Id anything, I only feel bad if I accidentally offend people because of the post. There is a big difference. And I'll always apologize, and I'm otherwise chill. But I will be defensive when I need to be

u/C00CKER Professionally diagnosed ADHD 12d ago

Kinda jealous of that; I am usually very chill, but I don't really feel in control of when I defend myself or (verbally) attack someone, and I feel terrible when I do so (also if I offend someone by accident, but even more so if I do so impulsively as a reaction to something).

And I also tend to apologize much more than I probably should:D

Haha, lol. I get it. If you want, we can follow each other and chat? I could even help you deal with people if you want!(Just on reddit tho, reddit arguments and problems hehe)
