Weird. Mine haven’t changed at all. Well, other than the hair.

Right. I have difficulty suspending disbelief so sometimes jokes like this just confuse me.

Yes, usually such people are advised by their doctors to avoid such ingredients.

How was that alluded to in the OP? Eating it isn’t the same as injecting it. It’s a normal ingredient in electrolyte drinks and rehydration salts. It’s also prescribed for hypokalemia.

I don’t understand this post. Salt doesn’t mean sodium. NaCl and KCl are both salts, and this is a 50/50 blend with less sodium (Na) for the people who need/want that. Am I missing something?

Software development is very collaborative and often involves daily and/or weekly meetings and frequent calls with coworkers.

It’s definitely too long of a sentence just to say ‘ADHD is a superpower and society is bad.’

I don’t watch commercials 🤷

Have you never searched through a sea of condiments, packaged foods you impulse bought weeks ago, and 13 different flavors of soda and sparkling water, and then not found what you’re looking for so you have to repeat the whole process again and maybe a second time because you swear it should be in here and you must have just missed it before?

I’m not sure this is actually narcissism. I felt very similar throughout my teens, but it is something I grew out of in my early/mid 20s. I think there are a few reasons for this. Often, people just grow out of it, through brain development or just spending more time around other people. Empathy can also be intentionally strengthened like a muscle.

I studied psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and logic to understand the general human mind. When you study a lot of things, you learn how little you know. You also get to see how much better other people are at certain things. I no longer assume I’m smarter than anyone else even if it’s obvious in one particular subject or several subjects, because they are probably smarter than me in other ways.

I also saw a therapist and spent more time around other people. I made an effort to understand others’ points of view, asking questions if needed, and really tried to imagine their life experiences and how they could come to feel or believe certain things. This will be an exercise at first but it eventually comes naturally for the most part.

That seems fairly common in people with ADHD. My SO is one of those. It’s definitely not the case for me, but I also have another condition that’s exacerbated by caffeine.

Everyone I know wants to leave.

What kind of steroids?

The historical usage is that they’re trash despite their whiteness. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_trash

The civil war was mainly because one of the mods went on Fox News, and it did not go well.

They can at least verbalize that they saw something funny so that I know they’re actually willing/ready to share because I hate asking and then waiting as they finish watching/reading/texting.

It’s not about the distraction. I can throw my phone across the room and still not be able to get up. I can remove all distractions, and I will still stare off into space and not get anything done.

FYI, Ritalin (methylphenidate HCl) is not an amphetamine. Methylphenidates and amphetamines are considered separate drug classes for treating ADHD. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/11766-adhd-medication

It basically means a trans person who cares a lot about appealing to conservatives/transphobes as “one of the good ones,” in ways that are often damaging to other trans people.

Someone who is called a pick me might say stuff like “you don’t have to use preferred pronouns if they don’t pass” or “you’re not a [man/woman] if you don’t have [sex organ].” They might be against transition even though they have transitioned and don’t regret it. They might excessively shit talk other trans people. They might “debate” a lot of conservatives and end up agreeing with them on various points.
