    All true, except those unread email/notifications are rookie numbers.

    That’s… That’s adhd? Like, I’m all of that. I don’t think I have adhd.

      As others said, these are mostly all signs of some kind of executive dysfunction. Mine is from depression, not ADHD, but there’s a lot of overlap. I obsessively keep my inbox empty which is a whole 'nother vibe

      It could be adhd, could be nothing, could be autism (poor executive function can be part of that). But it’s clear that you have the opportunity to get tested and improve your QoL. Your decision.

          Tricky thing about being neurodivergent is most people have no idea that they‘ve been suffering so getting insight into their own situation (even if they‘re not over the threshold) is going to do much good for their situation. Knowing is always better than not knowing (imo).

            Definitely easy to believe that what you’re experiencing and going through is just normal and what everyone else is going through too. Only way to know to get help is to somehow figure out that isn’t the case.

              Exactly. Most people I know find out about their possible diagnosis through a first contact with the topic and then usually talk to a medical professional. After that they search for someone who can actually diagnose them if that first professional encounter indicates a necessity.

            Even when you are neurodivergent you can assess whether your life “works” or not. Social media and the idea to go get a diagnose just to know made it almost impossible (where I live) to get an appointment.

            Doctors aren’t even putting you on a waiting list anymore. The victims of this are the people who really don’t have their life in order and aren’t managing to get an appointment.

            And this really is following social media trends. Currently it is an ADHD hype, slowly merging into an autism hype.

      There are more symptoms to ADHD and even then all of these appear in people without neurodevelopmental or psychological disorders as well. Especially when you live a stressful life.

    Most of these hit close to home, except that I’m obsessively punctual, check my messages even when there are no new notifications and my file system is a work of art that I can spend hours organizing. But that goddamn chair though…

      try 25 virtual desktops running 2 browsers, one of which with multiple profiles for various broad topics … my “main” session alone has 75-80 windows at present 😃

      edit: installed an extension to find out: in main session, 378 tabs across 84 windows. seems like a low number of tabs per window perhaps, but I organize topics into a window, then related topic-windows into a dedicated browser profile session if they’re long-lived, and windows/sessions are grouped into virtual desktop by top-level topic more or less … so my fediverse/threadiverse session has 35 tabs in 7 windows in only 1 virtual desktop.

      edit 2: I theme each browser profile differently to (mostly) tell them apart by eye

      Excessive tabs spanning across multiple browsers. Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. All at least 50 tabs opened

        Multiple windows open in multiple browsers, each window has minimum of 50 tabs open… Thank the gods for the 'switch to this tab’s feature so I can find what I wanted (even with organization tabs like Tree Style Tabs, shit gets lost)

    Multiple alarms in the morning is more about not getting enough sleep than it is about ADHD. The rest are pretty accurate, though some things are missing.

    Those social media notifications are not accurate. I always check my notifications. My notifications bar is clean. I think this “meme” is wrong

    Yeah, but you ever set an alarm for 4am, pop meds and then go back to sleep and have godlike vivid dreams?

    I upgraded “the chair™” to “the basket™” which makes it seem like i have “my shit together™”
