This awaited me in the kitchen after I woke up today. A crafty teen who loves #spiders might have a funeral planned. 🕷️🕷️🕷️🪦🪦🪦

Hi, I’m Arp! I got diagnosed with ADHD at 49, and now I'm trying to figure out what's me, what's masking, and just about everything else. I make comics (when imposter syndrome isn't striking) and write about life as a creative Indian-American. I’m self-taught, self-employed, and self-flagellating.

And thus I realized that I totally forgot to take my meds yesterday. #ADHD #AdultADHD #ADHDlife

Is there any interest in a series of #WordPress / #GeneratePress / #WooCommerce #videos where I build a print-on-demand #merch site from scratch? I always want to share what I know but the lack of time usually puts the kibosh on it.

Anyone else watch #TheBoys? The season finale was a doozy and hits too goddamn close to home. #Comics #USPolitics

i recently fulfilled a lifelong dream by running all the way, in the wrong direction, on a people mover in an #airport.
I recently fulfilled a lifelong dream by running all the way, in the wrong direction, on a people mover in an #airport. When I was a kid I felt too self-conscious but not anymore 😆 I didn’t record the run (I just wanted to enjoy it) but the video has some outtakes, including my kid who had never been on a people mover before. Sometimes #adhd impulsiveness is good for a quick little bonding experience with a kid 🙂 (I did however wait til it was not in use before the run.) #DreamsComeTrue

A belated #Caturday to the #Fediverse! Here’s the queen of the house wondering why we don’t just wait by her food bowl 24/7 to give her food every 5 minutes. #Cat #Cats #Felines #CaturdayEveryday

The brain’s frontal lobes, which are involved in ADHD, continue to mature until we reach age 35. In practical terms, this means that people with ADHD can expect some lessening of their symptoms over time. Many will not match the emotional maturity of a 21-year-old until their late 30’s. So while most people graduating from college take time to adjust to adult life, people with ADHD need more time, more family support, and more professional help.
Have you read this? It made me wonder how I managed to adult in the minimal capacity I could in my 20s & on – which consisted, tbh, in drinking too much #alcohol (a source of #dopamine & lowered #anxiety). But I’m thinking more on how to best guide & support my kids (though without some of the punitive ideas like charging rent, the author is a dinosaur from the 60s). https://www.additudemag.com/grow-up-already-why-it-takes-so-long-to-mature/
