“You have no problem focusing on the task at hand when your task at hand is a distraction from the actual task at hand” is such a perfect description of my adhd ass

You forgot the part where you lose the bomb and need to spend 30 minutes turning everything over to find it. Only for it to be under a piece of paper right where it was

[@deadacewill4227]

You grab the piece of paper and it’s an unfinished work assignment, on the calendar says it’s due tomorrow and its math. Must show your work in the corner of the paper

[@Ameliabones687]

​@deadacewill4227 by the time you finish reading the piece of paper, you've forgotten that you were looking for something, but the lingering feeling remains that you forgot something important

@@alxfr9 thanks, people have to deal with so much shit and its hard to try to sympathize with them when you cannot possibly fathom how it feels. for me if someones going through something like depression i just sit and listen and try to suggest some things that i do thinking that stuff like that could be the reason i have high self esteem in hopes of them becoming less depressed as well as making counter arguments to depressive thoughts such as "life has no meaning" and "nothing we do matters" etc. a lot of people don't realize these beliefs are kind of short sighted and i try to get them to critique them so that these beliefs don't weigh them down.
