Is it anxiety or OCD? Everyone is in the car, and you're halfway to the airport, and now you can't remember if you turned off the faucet when you brushed your teeth.

The Step Didn’t Fix It. That’s Fine.

You took the step. Nothing dramatic happened. No clarity arrived. It felt more or less the same as before. That's not a sign the direction was wrong. That's what a real step looks like when the imagined version gets stripped away. The anticlimax is part of it.

one of the "cool things" about executive dysfunction is feeling like you can't do X because you need to do Y, and then not doing Y either

@stekopf
Danke für deine Geduld und deine Sachlichkeit. Sehr ernst gemeint. 🙏🏻

Da sind wir sehr dicht beeinander.

Daran merke ich, wie sehr ich mein Leben lang kämpfen musste - ich werde schnell emotional, wenn ich das Gefühl bekomme, jmd spricht ND die Existenz ab.
Aber dank deiner Ruhe habe ich verstanden, dass es um etwas anderes geht: eine Gesellschaft zu entwickeln, in der Neurodiversität willkommen ist und Divergenz sein darf.

Lass uns dazu beitragen.

🤜🏻🤛🏻

@Sagesse

Ja, die Besonderheiten blieben 👍
In einer die ganze Neurodiversität berücksichtigenden Gesellschaft würde die Unterscheidung in #neurotypisch und #neurodivergent (als Normabweichung) jedoch ihren Sinn verlieren.

Menschen hätten weiterhin alle möglichen unterschiedlichen Konditionen in allen möglichen Bereichen, nur würde nicht mehr in "normal" und "anormal"/"abweichend" unterschieden, weil es keine Norm mehr gäbe, sondern nur noch passende (oder ggf. weiterhin unpassende) Strukturen.

Only just watched and listened to Changeling by Lydia the Bard.

As a very neurospicy person who has struggled like this for many decades, it really hits hard 🥺

Especially with lyrics like these:

I'm a warped reflection
Mending cracks with glue
I’m racing to fix them
Just gotta convince them
That I’m one of them too

and

Start walking
Stop talking
Keep smiling
Too widely
Be normal
Pretend there’s
A human inside me

This morning, I finished another project that was started over a decade ago!
This tin is now perfect for organizing my painting supplies!

Neurotypicals who hate calling and prefer texting:
Do you not hate it when discussions via chat take FOREVER just because 1 person in the party finds it cool to wait with answering?

(This is not directed at neurodivergents who take long to reply because of nd reasons!)

@ Neurotypische

Könnt ihr bitte aufhören, "ich habe Angst dass du ... machst", wenn ihr nicht wirklich Angst habt? Ihr könnt auch auf anderem Wege eure Nachrichten dramatisch klingen lassen. Kein Grund falsche Hoffnungen zu pflanzen.
