Ahh I see. Thanks.

If you are not neurotypical, especially if ADHD and/or ASD are involved, you’re not and never will be “like other people”.

I try and remind myself about this. But It fucking sucks that some people diagnose themselves with ADHD, but have no problems doing stuff. Then I have to fight my mind and not compare myself to other people. Irl, I guess you just have to suck up, I remember my boss telling me I was a disappointment compared to my colleagues. People suck.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)

Oh okay, I didn’t know about this. I will check this out in detail.

If, like many with ADHD including myself (this was a fun thing to become aware of well into adulthood), you are not super comfortable with your emotions and/or have alexithymia (trouble identifying, describing, and expressing ones own emotions), it could be useful to find an emotion wheel or feelings wheel.

I think I understand my feelings most of the time, but I do have difficulty controlling them.

I have had trouble explaining why I can’t sometimes work for more than 15-20 minutes, but I’ve always attributed that to stress anxiety. Like my body and brain just stop and refuse to work all together untill I shake that feeling off.

Thanks for the very comprehensive answer internet stranger, I appreciate it. The feeling wheel and DBT are something I’ll check out.

How do you manage between difficult and simple tasks? And Do you do the simple items first or the tough ones?

I’ve found myself of two minds about this.

Completing smaller simpler tasks feels fulfilling in that moment and helps boost productivity but doesn’t feel so good from a broader look back at them.

Whereas finishing difficult tasks feels really good but they can sometimes keep going on and on and on and feel never ending. They might take up a whole day and in that I might miss the small tasks.

Thanks for your reply.

Yup 👍, none of the meds available in my country worked.

I’ve been rawdogging ever since.

Any advice on how to do work like other people? I am quick to grab my phone everytime I get even slightly stressed or don’t immediately know the answer to a problem.

And it takes a lot of time for me to do something, it takes other very little (at least compared to me). Any advice on that?

Are spectra.video and lethallava.land special? Idk about them.

Also didn’t mean to diss you, just that, I as a new person to lemmy would have avoided them. There’s a mix of rational and irrational fear for weird looking links in me.

The domain names don’t seem very inviting.

Hey only @ml and @hexbear are tankie right? World and ee aren’t tankie are they?

It’s not even his anymore. He has moved on LOL. I think he endorses this brazillian crypto bro twitter called nostr. He funded so e of its development.

He also endorses twitter over blusky because apparently bluesky is very centralized…

My eyes have rolled into the side of my skull, and warped into null space.

Oh that’s interesting. These allowances and restrictions seem useful, so this labelling of Afd as what it is isn’t a nothing changes move.

Thank you for your insights.

Okay, that was strange. So Afd has now been labelled a far right extremist party, a few days after we had this discussion. Is this a sign of political will to ban them?

That actually sounds like a great idea. However, I feel like that won’t be enough to stop countries from wanting to ban fediverse platforms outright(if they decide to do so). I even read a news article talking about the how the current US administration doesn’t like Wikipedia because they are spreading “propoganda”. Or like how thy are trying to force change in independent universities by cutting their funding.

I’ve got some bad news…

In addition, the party must intend to impair or eliminate the free democratic basic order. Elimination means “the abolition of at least one of the essential elements of the free democratic basic order or its replacement by another constitutional order or another system of government”.

Seems like a catch 22. They would need the party to be in power and to try and dismantle the democratic elements before they get a ban. But wouldn’t it be too late then? Because if they’re in power, what’s stopping them from reducing the courts to puppet shows? (like arguably what’s slowly happening in the US) or what happened in the 1940s.

From what I can tell (I am an outsider), the party’s manifesto seems to aim to do exactly that. Is that not a reasonable enough reason? I know they aren’t outright nazis themselves, but I’ve heard whispers and about connections to those who are openly nazis themselves. Like elon Musk who is openly a nazi.

Are the courts confident the Afd won’t pull a Nazi third reich? I wonder if the checks and balances in germany are stronger than those in other countries. In the end, it will only matter to whom the police listens to.

Banning them seems like a question of political will, instead of having the right procedure in place.

Feels like an AI answer.

I had heard that they were going to ban the afd (some court?) . Is that not happening?

My fucking Brain. I have severe ADHD, and difficulty understanding concepts that are even more than a little complex. I forget stuff so easily. I fucking hate it so much, it is massively fucking frustrating.

I have passion, time and a want to be better. But changing myself is like walking barefoot through a narrow corridor, shoulder wide and full of glass shards on both the walls and the ground. All the while I keep forgetting where the exit is, even as it is right infront of me. Things that should take normal people a day to do, takes me more than a month. I hate it, I hate that it takes me so much time. And only fear drives me to do things, WHY? Why can’t it be something that I want to do instead of fucking fear. I fucking hate that. It’s like my brain has some bottleneck that just can’t be gotten rid of.

If I weren’t lucky with my circumstances, I would have killed myself.

No it hasn’t. It’s just that whenever you call a facist a facist they say “You call everyone a facist!”. This is how they work - they deny, delay and downplay any critique.

Thanks

Is there anyway you can prove you are in NK?

Why are you doing an AMA?

How did you find lemmy? and why lemmy? Why not reddit?
