ADHD memes

I'm not too fond of calling this a 'tax'. Tax money goes to funding actually useful things. Conservatives want you to think that giving money to the government and throwing it down the toilet are the same thing.

Just obsess over making everything yourself for your hobbies and they cost a lot less. Shit now I need more tools.

I want to laugh, but it’s too close to home.

I’ll add:

Missing appointments, rescheduling and then missing that one too.

Oh hey, I do all of these on a regular basis. And regularly got in trouble as a kid for being forgetful, despite the fact that I was a smart kid with good grades. Maybe I should talk to a doc...

Oh shit I just 100 percented this game. What do I win??

Get disposable virtual credit cards.

I just delete my credit card right after I sign up, and then I don't have to remember anything.

It's also much easier to unsubscribe you use a new card for each merchant, and if you no longer want to use amazon just delere the card. No need to go jump through 10x hoops to cancel

Yk, this is the ONE time living in the ass end of nowhere has been good for my wallet.

I've wanted to paint minis for a while now, and the one mini I got is a small blueberry I haven't even painted because I'd need to buy the tools and paints, which aren't sold here.

If I were stateside I'd be drowning in orc and salamander minis. Or more likely yet, primed but not painted, and tossed aside like half the hobbies I pick up until the moment I got the jist of what its about.

I make it a rule to only start inexpensive hobbies.

Once they have progressed, and I'm getting good at it, they turn to expensive hobbies.

This triggers the end of the hobby cycle and a new hobby is targeted.

I must be kind of in an ADHD sweet spot. I've had tons of hobbies through the years, but also an aversion to spending a lot of money on them. I prefer cheap activities where I can make most of what's needed. When I do invest in special tools etc. I tend to stick with those hobbies a lot longer. But I've definitely seen people who jump in feet first - 3d printing is a good example - and throw thousands of dollars equipping themselves and then upgrading and modding their equipment, without ever doing much with it. Some people refer to that as being a collector instead of a maker.

Bingo....I got all the ADHD squares covered

Luckily my wife pays the bills in the house or I be a mess.

uhhh. >_> who should I talk to about getting diagnosed?

*well-off ADHD tax.

Easy fix. Just make sure you make enough to pay the adhd dues

washing clothes twice

Ha. I'm lucky if I remember to wash them once!

Last week I forgot to pay for one of the items in my bag. Like genuinely forgot that I had it. Had to pay 165€ for shoplifting.

Also: meds cost the same amount as my phone bill. Adds up, too.
