Re: Whatchya up to?

You got your laundry and your dishes done. That's pretty cool.

Rain makes a lot of people feel screwy and so does mud getting everywhere.

You're doing okay, Nonny. Okay?

AYRT—thanks. I know I’m doing okay. I would just like to be able to focus on the stuff I need to do long enough to actually fucking do it. I start doing dishes and my brain goes “hey it’s raining, put the houseplants outside!”
“Okay brain, just let me finish—“
“Houseplants!”
*puts houseplants outside* “Happy now?”
“Oh look there’s a bag of potting soil and some strawberry starts, you should plant them—“
“I’m not wearing gardening clothes—“
“When has that ever stopped you?”
*plants strawberries, gets soaked and covered in dirt, tracks mud through the house.*
“Hey, look at all these ebooks you checked out!”
*start reading, realize ten chapters in the reason I’m cold is that I’m still wearing wet clothes and also all I’ve eaten today is a tangerine, change clothes, make lunch, eat, put plate in...
“FFS, I never finished the fucking dishes!”

This is pretty much every day of my life. I can’t even focus on my hobbies for long without getting distracted.

That does sound like ADD, yes.

AYRT—I’m 36 and no one else has even ever hinted that I might have it. Autism, yes, although I’m not diagnosed, several people have said it would explain a lot. And I have anxiety out the wazoo. And I know they’re frequently co-morbid. But caffeine doesn’t put me to sleep or help me focus, and both my parents were addicts who occasionally used meth and it certainly didn’t help them focus. On the other hand, I was born three months premature, and the brain damage that causes increases the chances of having both ADHD and autism, as well as a whole heap of other issues.

*shrug* Now that I have health insurance, one of these days when my phone call phobia and
executive dysfunction and anxiety are all cooperating I’ll check it out.
