Here we go again: the common #adhd morning dilemma of ‘Have I taken my meds or not?’

Thanks to my lovelyshort term #memory, I have to piece together my morning and see where I deviated from The Sequence of Things, because any deviation can make me forget a step.

(this need for a specific order of actions makes me wonder how far along the spectrum I might be).

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.

More Notes & Asides

One benefit of downloading all of my #Instagram data (so I can save my posts before deleting all of my non-glazed #art) is getting a full list of who I’m following. #Meta makes seeing that a needless pita. #SocialMedia #NoAiArt

Just writing this stresses me the f out 😖 I’m pushing myself far out of my comfort zone, to pursue something I’ve long wanted, that I think I can do well – but have been frozen by #anxiety, #ImposterSyndrome, & #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria. I’m gonna record myself singing for the #GreenDay Cover Project, deadline next Tuesday 3/15 at midnight.

#America’s zoning laws really fucked over everybody except corporations and the wealthy. You’d think as a young nation that we could have improved on the great cities of the world but no – we did worse, just like we’ve done in everything except for adding #socialism to professional #sports. Check out @notjustbikes@notjustbikes.com for lots of great videos that will make you wonder wtf is wrong with America.

coddiwomple (v.) to travel in a purposeful manner towards a vague destination.
#TIL that there’s a word that describes my whole damn life 😆 Except my ‘purposeful manner’ zigged and zagged a lot. No real destination in mind, just ideas of where I thought I wanted to go – or where I thought I should (🤦🏽‍♂️) be going. Some of this is #adhd related (like half-heartedly doing things I had no interest in) and some is not (school teaches you to not listen to yourself because Other People Know Better). But I would like to correct course and have a destination in mind for once. Also: ‘Coddiwomple’ is an incredible word. #Language can be so much fun! #Vocabulary #TIL #WordOfTheDay

This is an INCREDIBLE little #film. I love #stopmotion #animation (#Laika > #Pixar, all day every day and twice on Sunday). It’s so real and tangible, with a sense of space, depth, and light that CGI just can’t capture. But I didn’t know how bad-ass #fighting in stop-motion could be. The world needs more stop-motion fight sequences. #Video #Hidari #Samurai #FightChoreography #川村真司 初監督作品 #whatever #ドワーフ #TECARAT
