I dislike it when you describe your disorder and how it affects your life and people go "Oh that's normal I do that all the time." No, you fucking don't. You don't understand the difference between a little quirk that lasts half an hour that you can train yourself to stop to a thing that lasts months that you physically cannot stop and affects your ability to hold down a job.
Sometimes my ADHD gets so bad that it actually causes me physical pain to spend hours doing a menial task that my brain finds boring. That's not a cute quirk, it's not fake, it's not fun, it's fucking crippling.
Even worse is people think you're doing it to get attention, play victim or avoid work.
Like people don’t understand that disorders are causing DISORDER in your life. There was a time when my adhd severely fucked up my academic career and I was literally unable to dig myself out of it.

Erm, excuse me but I believe that I was promised that being dysfunctional would be fun?
