Brevity is the soul of wit, and my soul is a delicious peanut butter fudge; dense as hell.
Mentally ill woman in my late 30s.
I’m here to help!

Brevity is the soul of wit, and my soul is a delicious peanut butter fudge; dense as hell.
I have a lot of them. Sleep and I are in an… enemies to lovers kind of relationship.
There’s hate-fucking, is what I’m saying. I hate it so much and it’s all I want.
Some of my advice might be bad advice due to my ADHD but I can’t tell what might work for you so.
Also, I have left off a lot of stuff that I have done that is… not good. If you need harm reduction options, let me know.
I wear an eye-mask. The gentle, soft, cool (not cold!) pressure is a reminder to my brain that it’s bed-time.
Don’t eat too close to bed.
Make sure there’s nothing uncomfortable (like a tag from the sheets) touching me.
Play a TV show I find comforting but that doesn’t need my 100% attention, at a low enough volume that I can’t quite hear it unless I’m very, very, very quiet. This helps make me some moving/jittering/jiggling. (I play Futurama. Can’t get a nightmare from Futurama.)
I take l-theanine. It’s supposed to make people “alert” and “calm” but my doctor recommended it to me and it’s sedating effect is so strong it significantly drops my blood pressure. (Very useful if I have to take stimulant medication.)
Which leads to I take prescription medication. It doesn’t quite do it, and is hit-or-miss, hence the list.
No but I edit for readability for ADHD, and also I limit the wordcount.
Fuck! How did I miss the most unhelpful option?
And now I’m here to fight with both of you, not about what you’re arguing about, but I’m going to police your tone and call you both stupid because you didn’t argue in the arbitrary fashion I’ve determined is “correct!”
This is the least helpful contribution I can make, while simultaneously attacking you both!
Medium answer: you bet.
…this is a genius edit.
Women with ADHD went so underdiagnosed that it’s considered an epidemic.
Women over the age of 35 were straight up not diagnosed because “girls don’t get ADHD.” So I do somewhat disagree with your premise.
They already exist? I’ve never heard of them.
I want to understand, intrinsically, and be able to manipulate to my liking, all the financial systems of the world.
At worst, I’d quickly become a well-paid accountant. At best, I’d become an extremely talented, untraceable, modern Robin Hood.
Dbzer0 is where I went and after seeing all the content I wasn’t seeing because world had defederated, I’m really enjoying myself.
Stoked to be part of the answering force!
This just solved it for me. That is exactly it. I’ve been angry at stairs my whole life and now I realize it’s because I go up them as fast as I walk- which is considerably faster than most people I know.
Yesterday when all this came out I immediately applied to my new instance and let me tell you- seeing all the content I was missing from the places world has defederated has been a blast!
Ooh, excellent one.
You can make it from milk and butter if I remember. You can make it from double cream (heavy whipping cream in the US).
And I would love to just buy a jar but I can’t find them anywhere except online!! It’s such a shame because I grew up enjoying it, and went a few years too busy to have anything with it, and then when I went to buy it… nowhere.
Eta: If someone has a solution for me in the US thst doesn’t involve paying a fortune online, I am all ears! More ears than anything really.
I’ve been mad about UHT milk ever since I discovered I can’t make clotted cream with the ultra high temperature stuff. I don’t want unpastuerized milk but ffs, let me have some texture I can work with!
I agree. I think it’s worse than we already know.
Luigi, Luigi, who can I turn to?
You give me something I can hold onto!
Things can’t stay the way that they were before
It’s time to put some villains up on the wall!
Luigi I got your number!
I think it’s hero time!
Luigi don’t change your number!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Luigi Luigi you’re the guy for me
Oh, you don’t know me but you make me so happy. I tried to free you but I lost my nerve. I said “nullification” but I got censored
Luigi I got your number. I think it’s hero time. Luigi don’t change your number
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
Four six one six two five oh!
I got it (I got it) I got it
Put those assholes on the wall!
I got it (I got it) I got it
For the good of, for the good of us all!
Luigi, Luigi who can we turn to
(Four six one six two five oh)
To know our pain, we can always turn to you. (Four six one six two five oh)
