[@lazyperfectionist3978]

0:58 "I don't understand the question." Yeah, I live with a *very* neurotypical husband, and he literally cannot comprehend some of my challenges. They just plain don't compute for him. Bless him, he's very kind about it, but he simply doesn't understand the magnitude of the struggle it is for me to do certain things - he is genuinely baffled/puzzled by my inability to make phone calls, for example. What I wouldn't give to be able to brain swap with him for one day, just so he could have a frame of reference 😕

[@falls2shine712]

The inability to make phone calls is probably the issue that has the most pervasive effect on my life. Not only am I not able to fix my bank card being locked, because they will only take phone calls.. I can't even explain to other people who need me to get finances fixed, why I can't simply call them up and sort it out at any time. So I have bins to be paid for, a driving licence to apply for, no ability to top up my phone credit to make a call, without any transport. The situation is pretty bad, like living on a sinking ship, and it is all because I cannot get myself to make phone calls, or even remember to credit my phone to do so. It was nice to see your comment. To know I'm not going through that alone. that I'm not being as unreasonable as it feels from the rest of the world.

[@whatwilliwatch3405]

​@@falls2shine712 I'm sorry to hear about your challenges. If I absolutely MUST make a call, I've found that if I put my phone on speaker phone, it's (very, very slightly) easier for me to have a phone conversation. I don't know why this helps (maybe because it feels less like a phone call since the phone isn't up against my ear?). But I wanted to share in case it's useful for you. Alternatively, if you have a supportive close friend or family member, have them join the call with you. My husband has done that on occasion, when I was worried the call would really confuse or disrupt me, just so he could help make sure the conversation stayed on track. (Since some places will ONLY speak to the individual, not a representative.) I wish someone offered a service where they would make phone calls for you. You could provide what you want the outcome of the call to be in an email, digitally sign something that gives them permission to act on your behalf with the call, and then just let them sort it out. I would literally pay money for that.

[@kellsbells3703]

That is so awesome that he is kind about it. My husband had the gull to say to me everyone has "ADHD" I think he actually meant everyone can get distracted..I started to explain the difference between a neurotypical and a neurodiverant brain, he looked shocked. I told him I wish I had a brain like his. It's his choice if he wants to research this stuff but I believe he did that night because he hasn't made a comment like that since. This is still so new to so many. Like you said a brain swap would be very beneficial at times. 😮‍💨

Yep, it's how many women and introverts fly under the ADHD radar. And then we often end up in relationships with avoidant ADHD types who seem so chill because they just avoid/ignore/forget anything stressful. So we've gotta stress for two, and it's impossible to communicate with them when something bothers us, because their mind will just go lalala until we're acting happy again.

I especially relate to the sidequests, lol. I will be for example, doing laundry, while I suddenly decide that I need to clean my cupboards. That then leads me to think that "hey, I haven't actually finished the game on Playstation yet". While playing, I suddenly pause the game and start a monologue about some topic that came to mind while playing the game (I will talk out loud, even those monologues) ,which then leads me to searching online of the said topic. This then leads me back to the "hey, did I finish doing the laundry?". Because of this I have learned to say out loud "okay, I will first do this task and after that I will do the second task" I have to say them out loud, multiple times otherwise it won't work. Because of this method I nowadays go on sidequests lot less than before, but I still do sometimes, sadly it's not 100 percent solid method 😅

I like to say my internal monologue isn't always so internal. Somehow, by speaking things out loud, they can become more solidified in my brain.

Have a place for each important item, close to where its most commonly needed. So glasses are always left on the table by your sofa spot, keys are in a bowl near the mainly used exit. Have a pretty box for feminine hygiene in the bathroom - nicely hidden but handy when needed. Then routines and habits help. Always put your keys where they live before taking your coat off. Sunglasses live well next to the keys.

[@salathe-el]

I am currently juggling at least 5 pairs of glasses. They all have different prescriptions as I don't seem to be able to throw away the outdated ones. 50% of them the frames are broken. They are lying all over the house and I pick them up randomly and hope I'll be able to see something through them. As I have one long sighted and one short sighted eye the prescriptions are interesting and some help me see close up others long distance. I have tried tethers and that can help, but often find that I have two pairs hanging around my neck and they get all tangled up. Last night I was trying to watch the footy (long distance for telly) and of course because I can't concentrate on it, was also trying to play a game on my phone (short distance) - Total effing nightmare. 🤣

Mainly because I was never the first one there so I never had to unlock and my co workers learned long ago to make sure I left when they did or I'd still be there the next day. Kept forgetting to call a locksmith to change the locks at home so I didn't lock the house when I went out. And used all of the different hide a keys I had for my car because I lose those keys most often. For an entire year...

But every now and then I forget to take them out of my door 😅 Thankfully I both live in a safe(ish) neighborhood and have trained another muscle memory reflex to always lock my storm door, so it's not like they're just in the open, but someone actually trying to break it could probably bust that lock pretty quickly 😅

I hope it's not too frustrating with us "functioning" people. Damn, it's not like you are not functioning. Opposite actually, you do so much more than we do, just the timelines don't match. If we had to go through all those things with 5 different people talking to us all the time... we would soooooo loose every test. Watching this just made me feel kinda sorry for what you might feel when you see others doing stuff "easily".

What about a Combo Washer-Dryer? That way you can put in the dirty laundry and it will wash, then dry it in one step.

My worst sidequest was running a bath and then for some reason feeling like it was a good idea to also make myself some eggs. The idea was that when I was done making them, I would turn off the bath and eat them really quick before getting in.... but instead I completely forgot the water was running and ate said eggs while watching a show. I was almost done with the episode before I remembered the water was still running. >w>

The worst is when I forget where I’ve put my glasses, and can’t see to find them 😂

[@whatrtheodds]

I think us non ADHD folks do at least a few of these though. Buying not only whats on the list, side quests, late, 🫗 spills. Yeah i relate. I swear im not ADHD thou.

[@cint08950]

as my ADHD friend would say it's all about the degree

[@Cobalt985]

Ok but sometimes I literally can't function because of these things

[@whatrtheodds]

@@Cobalt985 That sucks

[@hazelsalminen1448]

What if half of these are me and half not? Yes to cold coffee & side projects but no to spilling (I excel at pouring!) and being late 🤔 And the other stuff depends heavily on context.

[@holleighlordel1575]

Love this opposite POv video! 😂🩵

[@sarsarsvintagejewelry]

The spilling. Oh my gosh the never ending spilling!!!!!!

[@Kristina-yr6xg]

I leave always a bit Coffee in my mug, I never ever finish hot drinks...now I understand my father always complained about it😅

[@allisonandrews4719]

Omg finishing a hot drink. I never ever thought about it. I have never done such a thing. I have just in the last year gone into a store and bought only what was on the list, but I moved to an area with far less “dopamine” items available. I didn’t know that’s what I was doing but yeah it was breaking the bank. Hot drinks gone cold that’s my interior design philosophy. Sigh

[@thequietlife1152]

How do you know it’s on the second wear if it’s not in the floordrobe???

[@bakaichigo]

Lmao... the effortless way the work gets done 😢😅

[@AprilShowers13]

It's like watching a much cooler version of myself, lol. But uuhhh, question, I don't understand #2, "body doubling"??

[@rebacarter7461]

I need this person😂🤣 But, I don't think they'd tolerate me😅😅

[@steggopotamus]

I have so many of these from work. Why don't you need color coded folders? Why do you trust yourself to label or right the first time, aren't you going to rename it 20 times to make sure you remember it. How did you remember to do that thing without 14 reminders? You can just finish with one task and switch to another, you don't find yourself sucked into one task on your backburner list and/or completely unable to do the high priority task until it's panick time?

[@3ch1dna07]

My husband calls my side quests my "Dear Liza" moments but at 51, I have never been tested but these things are all things that I do. I could get tested but my depression cuts those options out because it would require me to interact with others more.

[@brightpage1020]

The floordrobe! 🎉❤😂😊

[@evakatz6351]

My did once wash a load 3 times because I kept forgetting it.

[@trueunknown7162]

I think the only thing that I don’t do I don’t spill things. I’m overly careful.

[@terezahlubuckova1646]

That was actually so relatable😂😂😂.

[@MelissaMcGovern-r9c]

So effing perfect😂🎉

[@Infindox]

I don't even drink hot drinks except hot chocolate in the winter anymore. Saves the trouble lol

[@minxiv7]
