I’ve been struggling with mental health as an ADHD male and feeling like a burden and like I’m not allowed to have these feelings because I don’t want to be annoying to my friends and family. I recently missed my therapy appointment because my sister had a baby and I was at the hospital but they still take out the money and my card got declined. It’s been hard to stay motivated at my work because I feel I’m not appreciated enough and the work I do is not always interesting which makes my ADHD want to do anything but that task.

That being said, I am so grateful for my family, especially my wife. And I’m grateful for a community where I can vent here and I know like minded people will understand my struggles. The news cycle has been so bad lately but in the real world, people do care about each other and I need to remember and hold on to that.

I just switched over during the holidays because I got tired of my cpu and ram usage being so high. My friends and I also have this theory that isn’t a theory that if you delay a Windows update long enough, it will force a crash to force the update. I just put my PC to sleep, and it will force a crash every so often and every time, Windows runs an update upon start up. Anyway I’m loving running Mint now.

Just watched this video about. This is insane.

I don’t have autism, but ADHD. Still I’ve worked from home since COVID except for a small stint in office and I don’t think I could ever go back. Way too overstimulating, too many distractions, they wanted me to wear slacks, a belt, and a collared shirt all day. My fidget toys aren’t seen as professional. I go to the bathroom waaay more than other people due to stress bowel issues. I’m glad I get to work from home in my pajamas just helping others with IT issues all day remotely.

What field do you work in? Any struggles with autism in the day to day?
