    I feel like my adhd is the reason for my extreme stress? I’m inattentive as fuck, which is very fucking stupid because the ptsd symptom I can’t turn off is hyperawareness. I’m always noticing everything, but trying to keep track of it long enough to put into context is a struggle. Life those two symptoms are at odds and making each other worse?

    Even trying to explain it like this feels stupid.

      I’ve let non-verbal pets (my snake, for one) die because I knew I needed to feed them, but my task paralysis prevented me from doing so when I thought of it and my lack of time management meant they could always go one more day.

      Man, 2020 sucked major ass. I’m sorry Juno! You deserved better than me.

      It is exhausting to live like this. Now, I just have passive SI and am waiting to find out what cancer or terminal disease I have that will claim my life while I slowly eat and sit myself to an early grave.
