Yeah another trip to the psychward. Not good. I'm out and my meds got upped but my dad is in really bad shape health wise. In typical dad form he wants to sell the house and kick me out on the street. I guess now even my half sister, the one he actually loves, won't talk to him. I got no real help in the hospital again this time. I asked if I could be evaluated if I have ADHD and PTSD but they weren't able to test due to being short staffed. I did get an official diagnosis for OCD though. Right now mentally I'm a mess and I'm exhausted.

      If you actually do have adhd my experience is most people with it are on the smarter side of the curve. And the adhd chews away at you on the daily if you continue to operate in this mundane dull capitalist world of grinding. I now really get into certain hobbies. Get good at it put a lot of energy into it. Get bored and than move on.

      I just find all the commercials i see about adhd a bit dismaying. Maybe it’s not you. Maybe everyone wasn’t meant to be a good little desk clerck or cashier. Maybe you are meant to be busting ass in a field or work site or under a car. I also think if you have been diagnosed with adhd it would be hard to also be ocd. I don’t have the attention span for that. Im a ditz that forgets where he put my keys i was just holding a minute ago. But that’s just my opinion.

      Wow this is all me pretty much to a certain degree. Like the hobbies thing. I get into these obsessive spirals for a while over a topic or subject and try to learn all I can about it only to drop it a few days later. I can never finish what I start. And I'm a total scatter brain, like when people talk fast for instance I just can't keep up. Writing and typing on the internet though help me focus and put what I'm thinking into words and concrete ideas.
