that adhd fear when u wanna commit to smth so u get rly into it and then start to worry that this is just going to be another short lived hyperfixation and ull never return to it again

The adhd modes of food

1. You ate that burger so fast. You ate that burger so fucking fast and now the whole Red Robin is staring at you god what the fuck

2. You started eating like a normal person, but then you started talking or daydreaming and now the waitress is handing you the check but you’ve still got half a plate of cold fettuccine

3. You were going to go out to eat, but then you saw a video in your YouTube recommendation that drew you towards it like moth to a flame, and now it’s 10 pm and you’ve got an empty bag of tortilla chips in your hand and shame in your heart

4. Mac And Cheese

5. You got engrossed in a project, suddenly you feel like you’re going to die, or faint, or both? Oh. you’re hungry.

6. You’re hungry.  But every food you can think of sounds disgusting.  Time for your 15th day of lunchables for breakfast in a row.

i KNOW the sleep tips, google. trust me, i know about the darkness and the light and evil screens and exercise and meditation and not napping. i know “”“how”“” to sleep. what i need you to tell me is how to convince my fuckass adhd brain that i need to give up on doing things for the day and that the hours between midnight and five a.m. are NOT secret free extra time that no one will notice if i steal

Humanities student aesthetic for @gcldendays

How much longer until the utopic Solarpunk future where Capitalism is dead and we all live in ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities? Asking for a friend.

Until we make those ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities ourselves. It’s going to take a lot of us to do it though, so best to spread the word (and gather native tree seeds).

And, like, get started now. Then our “weirdo houses” will be the only thing functioning when everything falls apart!

The only reason why we don’t live in a solarpunk world right now is because no one has bothered to make it yet. 

We’ll have to make it ourselves, and we’ll have to help each other make it. That’s why it is solarpunk. 

Some resources to consider creating or joining or doing:

Grow food in 5 gallon buckets

Adding a few!

If you struggle with anxiety, overwhelm, or just plain feeling like a failure, I have a mantra for you that’s been really helping me out lately:

Just show up.

I used to skip class because the whole thing was so overwhelming: I had to get dressed in something clean even though I never had the energy to do laundry, walk to school, sit in class for up to three hours, plus pay attention, take notes, and participate in discussion. In reality, I was being a perfectionist, and life would have been a lot easier for me if I had Just Shown Up. By staying home because of my depression and anxiety, I wasn’t giving myself the chance to do any of that. I was such a perfectionist that being a “bad” or average student was unthinkable, so I stopped being a student at all.

If you’re having trouble getting something done, Just Show Up. You don’t have to be employee of the month. You don’t have to be valedictorian. Just Show Up.

ime it also helps to be like “you dont have to stay the whole time, you just have to go” bc most of the time once youre there it’s fine. a lot of things are like that, like… you dont have to finish the dishes, just start them. a lot of the time once you start a task it’s easier to finish than to stop, especially if you can trick yourself like “after five more minutes if i still feel bad i’ll go home” or “after washing two more dishes i can stop for today”

even if you don’t finish the task, you started it, and by completing part of it you lessened your future workload and ALSO taught your brain that things may not be as daunting as they seem

This is wisdom! Peace!

you know what years of therapy taught me - Redefine success

so what if no one else gets how the things you define as successes are victories because you have to

so you got to work - success

you used public transport - success

you went to the supermarket instead of ordering online and didn’t just buy things you dind’t want because you got scared - MASSIVE success

Redefine success, your body moved the goal posts, there is no shame in acknwoledging that

routines

Developing morning and evening routines has made a huge difference in my life! Giving my brain time to start the day instead of trying to rush right into work feels great, and having a bedtime routine helps me get in the mode for sleep a lot easier (which is very helpful if, like me, you suffer from trouble sleeping).

Morning routine ☀️🌼

1. Wake up and make the bed (this was one of my New Years resolutions for this year and it might sound strange especially because I live alone, but coming home to that nicely made bed at night is so strangely rewarding)

2. Stretches and a set of squats

3. Morning vitamins + pills and teeth brushing while the shower water heats up

4. Turn on This American Life or NPR news to keep me company

5. Shower

6. Full body moisturization (I love this one because it feels luxurious and gives me a few last moments to myself)

7. Get ready for work/wherever I’m going if it’s not a work day

Nighttime routine 🌙🌸

1. Hot bath and a huge mug of green tea and/or some dark chocolate

2. Listening to music time (usually classical or jazz)

3. Full body moisuturization (yes, again. It’s just something I like!!)

4. Nighttime vitamins + soluble fiber (so great for digestion) + teeth brushing

5. Stretches and a set of squats (another repeat!)

6. 30 minutes of reading in bed

7. Sleep time

what are your routines? I love to know everyone’s little habits and am always tweaking and improving my own.
