I was going to start a blog about having ADHD, but, well, if you have ADHD, you might understand why it’s just this...

Is there anything quite like going for a long, hot, relaxing shower and instead spending 15 minutes mentally stewing over all of your problems, like you’ll be able to solve a single fkn thing while standing there naked & wet? #askADHD #ADHD #ADHDTwitter

I see that the #TwitterTakeover looks to have claimed a victim in useful accounts like Ask ADHD which amplify hashtags for community benefit. No retweets in a couple of days. Such a shame. #ADHD #askADHD #ADHDTwitter

On the one hand, I’m glad that challenges of #ADHD are getting some mainstream publicity. On the other hand, it’s a real shame that the face of it is a complete shitbag of a person and that people are going to dismiss #ADHD as a real problem because of it. #ADHDTwitter

This can’t possibly be true, can it? This is like finding out that 50% of people can’t smell or taste! #askADHD #ADHD #ADHDTwitter

Wait for it. WAIT for iiiiiit…. There’s still 90 mins left before you have to leave work for the day, so plenty of time to finish that 75 minute task… #ADHD #ADHDTwitter

I just tightened a door handle that’s been loose for 18 months (90 second job) and fixed my bedroom door that wasn’t snapping shut properly the last 6 months (30 seconds). I’m king of the world!! Ask me anything! #ADHD #AskADHD #handyman

I think I’ve figured it out. I have constant impulses driven by #ADHD to buy stuff I don’t need, yet I manage to control them because my self esteem is so low that I hate myself enough to deny myself the pleasure of these purchases. What wins your battle? #askADHD

I had a dream last night where I was being inducted into my home town’s football club hall of fame. I quit playing football when I was 15 years old. Whole dream was about building up to making a speech where I was rejecting the induction. WTF is that all about? #AFL #AFLFinals

Being an adult is, when half of your family is away for the night and the other half are sick & don’t want anything, defrosting leftover chilli & opening a bag of Doritos for dinner.

Since becoming aware of it, I am absolutely staggered by how frequently I instinctively reach for my phone as a reaction to something stressful. Like ‘I can’t deal with this’ <immediately reaches into pocket>. Gotta chase that dopamine! #ADHD

It’s midday Friday. I could: a) power through for an hour or 2, finish early & start the weekend early or b) find absolutely anything else to do until 4:30, cram as much as I can in for the next half hour, end up working late and feel gross. Tough choice… #ADHD #askADHD

UPDATE: 3 years and nearly 4 months later, I finally went to the dentist today to get this tooth fixed. 😔 What have you been putting off that you should do now? #ADHD #AskADHD
