@redsad apparently I traded the ADHD for depression and undiagnosed autism.
Still no idea what I was actually supposed to gain from that program.

@redsad@ohai.social a lot better, thankfully. I smoke a lot of weed and it helps with ADHD and anxiety. perfectionism I've learned to replace with never ending disciplines. for example, I don't really like beating games, I just like the ones you can't beat like Minecraft and chess (you just keep improving). and music is going well, I'm not a perfectionist, I turned procrastination into endless proliferation, so I still struggle to work on songs for more than one session; I'm learning to not do that :3

@redsad@ohai.social it gets a LOT better by 25. like, a LOT better. also, quitting big tech helps, and strengthening your focus (for me, by reading a lot and doing math) esp in your early 20s helps.

Hey. Not only do my youngest child make that program, but now her oldest child has made it. Two children, 4 grandchildren, not one neuro-normative in the crowd.
But everyone gets student of the month, and 1st in the article contests, and like that.
It's just that they are light on the 401K paths. -

@redsad Yeah, in the 80's but geez. Ow.

@NicolaElle @mxsparks @redsad Yeah, I became the oldest daughter, too.
