Is it normal not to care about your friends, uncle, cousins or anyone? Like, you have friends, but you couldn’t care less about them and don’t value them. If they have kids, you don’t care about their well-being either. Basically could not give less of a fuck about anyone. You don’t care about your friends or family members at all. If they are sick, you don’t care; if they die, you don’t care. Is this normal?
Yeah my kids tell me I have ADHD, and by the current understanding of it I would agree (when I was growing up it only applied to literally hyperactive kids, I have seen some and it was extreme and disabling, they were wild and screaming, couldn’t stop moving or learn.) and certainly have not a good understanding of time at all. And it’s like I know they are ok, and that is satisfactory, I am happy if they are happy.
lol don’t say “the thing” we all hate that lol
“I had a little brother with adhd, he had such a hard time in school”
Unless he died he still has adhd and it’s not a problem with school is a condition with life long concerns. People just learn to hide it after childhood. Plus many women have adhd as well and it never gets diagnosed. So the “nephew in school” comparison is a little bit frustrating lol
Look into adhd. There’s all kinds of symptoms one could have and it really helps to understand what’s going on inside your mind.
Like the time blindness thing. “Am I a bad person for not missing people” no, it’s just a condition.
Even if you decide to never take medication it helps to know what’s going on.
Edit: and I know you didn’t technically say “the thing” I just like explaining that to people so they don’t accidentally offend someone
Edit: I personally am going thru this weeks episode of “when was the last time I ate something? Jesus… has it been a week!!?” I have severe adhd lol. I was in training videos as a kid. Cocaine makes me sleepy that’s the severity of my adhd lol I’ve used cocaine like some people use melatonin
Oh my gosh when I was younger I absolutely loved to sleep on speed, it felt so good. Caffeine would leave me wired but amphetamine - it’s not that it made me sleepy exactly, but the sleep on speed was so delightful.
And yeah I gained 20 lb when I went to school in England and was fed 3 times a day, I had never eaten like that before. Just when I got hungry and remembered, lol.
Now I mostly just make sure to exercise - I was very active as a teen too but now it really works, if I exhaust my body my mind does settle.
One of us! One of us!
Lol. Yeah sounds like adhd.
I walk a few miles a day to burn off extra energy as well.
It’s not all negative tho. I bet you’re also a quick thinker and an out-of-the-box thinker. When everyone else gets stuck on a project do they come to you for a solution?
