More Adhd Things

But what if your headmates force you to do something you dont want to?

My headmates:

"you know you should probably go for walk, some fresh air would make you feel better."

"You shouldnt stay up so late, your only going to make yourself tired in the morning."

"you should make a sandwich instead of just snacking all day."

Honestly I love super niche origin terms. The why and how you exist is something that can be super duper important to someone – just look at how many religions try to answer that question about the human species or individual people, as well as all the philosophical debate about the meaning of life, or even just the personal family stories of why someone's parents decided to have/keep them – and it's no surprise that we (plurals and headmates in general) like to answer this question for ourselves when we have such unique paths and causes for existence. I just finally figured out how to put into words my own reason for existence and I'm really happy about that! I hope all headmates out there who are struggling with "why do I exist" are able to find a satisfactory answer too, whether that means you find a specific origin term that fits you, you coin your own term, or you decide to forgo origin terms and describe yourself in a freestyle way. You're not alone in searching for answers – not in this community, and not in general, either. A lot of folks out there are asking the same questions you are.

sorry if i forget your name, im really bad at remembering peoples names.

i dont even remember my own name half the time.

Me: *hears that bottling up your emotions is bad* oh no! I will make sure I don't do that!

My brain (devious): *makes the bottle invisible and hides all evidence of unconscious bottling up*

Me: see, I'm not bottling up my emotions :) I just don't feel them very strongly and feel very detached from them :)

I Like Sharing Hands With You

Actually, we did want to make a little something appreciative of our plural identity for disability pride month.

Presenting, my life for the past 6 years

if youre autistic and transgender and you live with your parents you just have to remember soon you wont live with your parents and nothing will ever be as bad as this ever again. im fucking serious

I'll never understand how people can believe autistic people have no imagination. I have vast, and intricate worlds inside my head that I love visiting when I need to escape, and the same can be said for other autistic people I know.

Host: *plays cool game once* That was fun

Fictive from said game: Yeah it wa-

Host: AAAAH

what i feel like is lacking from conversations about plurality is how genuinely, fundamentally cool it is to be plural. doesnt it fascinate you how our brains can create entirely new selves, inner worlds, inner structures to keep itself afloat? doesnt it make you so curious? especially with regards to atypical plural experiences. i dont hate people for having entire systems full of fragments or fictives or subsystems. in fact, i find it wonderful, a miracle of the mind. you have a complicated inner world with unique lore? incredible, how did that develop? your entire system is full of fictives from the same source? thats amazing, hows that going? your system has entire layers on itself, with several systems running in tandem? wow, thats fascinating, how did you know? you believe you came from different worlds? tell me about them. please, tell me more about yourselves. id love to hear it. i do not fear the potential of the human brain.
