i’ve seen so many iterations of this on tiktok. people saying “this tweet motivates me to get out of bed”
how?
“omg you people cant do anything”
i mean… yeah? that’s kinda how executive dysfunction rolls?
is the tweet supposed to be insulting? and that motivates people to do shit out of spite? if that’s so, i wish my adhd was so weak i was able to prove her wrong out of spite
is it something else? please explain, thank you
Yea at that point it’s definitely learned helplessness or having so strongly identified with your disability that you’ve completely stopped trying
Nobody talks about the stressors of picking a Halloween costume probably because it’s completely optional, self inflicted, and of such low importance. Of all the issues that ADHD would give somebody why would anybody complain about this particular issue

Learned helplessness is an actual concept in clinical psychology
Huh the more you know!
