Itโ€™s always been hard for me to keep up with friends, but as a new mom itโ€™s felt downright impossible. Do I message instead of sleep? Sleep is already so hard with her teething. Or message instead of be present with my baby? Or instead of work, when Iโ€™m already so behind? Seriously how do moms DO it

If you have ADHD kids, forget โ€œhide and go seek.โ€ Teach them games like โ€œfigure out where this goes and then keep it there!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜† MUCH more helpful life skill

I regret to inform you that life with #ADHD does not, in fact, โ€œsettle down.โ€ Whatever youโ€™ve got on hold until it does, maybe put on your cal for tomorrow.

Even if itโ€™s just 5 minutes worth of whatever the activity is.

Those w/ADHD deserve to enjoy life, too.

UPDATE: I just found rice on my shirt. From lunch. 3 hours ago.

OK maybe I do still need more than 5 hours of sleep.

However, in relative-to-yesterday terms I am doing GREAT ๐Ÿคฃ

UPDATE: I cleaned only the left half of my desk before running out of steam. Still calling it a win.

Me, before baby:

I only got 5 hours of sleep, ima be useless today

Me, after baby:

I GOT 5 HOURS OF SLEEP!
*works out*
*calls bill companies*
*cleans desk*
*plans Christmas*
*does ALL THE THINGS because this amount of sleep may never happen again*

Where did you first get the idea that the only acceptable version of yourself is one that involves essentiallyโ€ฆnot having #ADHD?

Iโ€™ll go first

Fun fact: those with #ADHD are often early tech adopters ๐Ÿค“ Iโ€™m not at all shocked that we ended up here.
