Oh it's a day ending in Y, is it?

Vague sense of feeling I forgot something

Only able to remember when I need it outside of the house

that feeling never goes away, then you die, and everyone says how lazy and selfish you were because you never did any work

At one point in life ... you realize that it doesn't really matter and you start doing whatever you want. Within reason that is and without hurting or negatively affecting anyone else anywhere.

And you also stop giving a crap about what other people think - especially what they think about you. You learn to appreciate the motto:

'How others think of you is none of your business'

That is again within reason, because what they think shouldn't matter to you unless it hurts you or negatively affects your life.

Anxiety is fun huh?

This is the second best benefit of my meds. I can keep lists now and actually just do things, so if I feel this way I just start making a list of all the major to-do things I can think of and a list of all the stuff I kind of feel like I should do. Just putting it into a list helps because I then feel more confident I know what needs to get done. Plus I can break down the big things into smaller steps now which is useful.

I definitely tried doing this kind of stuff before getting medicated but it didn’t work. Gotta love how every piece of advice for dealing with ADHD shit only is an option if you don’t have ADHD to begin with.

Had to think about the days of the week one at a time before realising they all end in Y

I've started keeping a notepad file up on my computer at all times and just jot down stuff whenever I think of it randomly, has helped with the anxiety a bit

It's a day with a Y in it, so obviously I'm over it
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
I tried not to worry, and I tried being sorry
For being born in the wrong place at the wrong time

Cause I've been
Messed up, stressed out, talking to myself again
Locked up, left out, terrified of everything
Wound up, found out, waiting round for something to give

Frank Turner - Haven't Been Doing So Well

The song is about anxiety, but the Venn Diagram between these communities is just about a circle anyways as far as I can tell.

Don’t you ever wake up and suspect
That you were simply never cut out to be
The kind of person they expect
The person you intended to be
And I keep it all in with my idiot grin
And I’m doing my best, but there’s very little left
So cut me some slack if I crawl back into my shell
I haven’t been doing so well
