Been OBSESSED with these jeans lately as Iโm sure youโve noticed in my stories. Had fun making this which is the whole point of creating, right? Hands down cutest barrel jeans are from @freepeople #myfpfit #fpbarreljeans #deniminspo #momstyle #tomboyfashionstyle #momstylelife #sahmstyle #confidentstyle #momootd #tomboystyle

Anyone else used to spend way too much money on new hobbies and now just donโt even bother trying them? Since my late diagnosis, Iโve been trying to find my true self. The part of me that isnโt masking/mirroring behaviors or following trends. I know my few special interests, fashion, makeup and skincare, are genuine; Iโve loved them since adolescence and I donโt foresee that ever changing. That said, being focused on things that are all a part of my appearance, canโt be great for my mental health. I also really enjoy social media, but it too can be damaging, if Iโm not careful. So Iโm on a journey to find activities that I can do from home that fill my cup. If you happen to have any suggestions, leave them in the comments or shoot me a DM, Iโd love any and all ideas! #mymentalhealthjourney #neurodivergents #latediagnosedautistic #specialinterests #adhdprobs #adhdstruggles #audhd #mentalhealthjourney #bekindtoyourself #mentalhealthmatters #liveyourbestlife #innerhealing #selfawareness #adultadhd #adhdawareness #adhdbrain #neurodivergent #actuallyautistic
Reading this hit me hard. Iโm usually rushed and panicked whenever we have an appointment to make and itโs rarely because of her and yet she has to experience my anxiety secondhand. Itโs not fair to her. Now Iโm not out here saying never be rushed, thatโs impossible, but Iโm certainly going to do everything in my power to minimize how often it happens. So hereโs some things Iโve decided to do going forward: 1๏ธโฃ re-pack bags when you get home from being out: when we get home from an outing, I like to prepare the bag for the next trip as soon as we get home. This way, I know itโs empty of the last trips items and the necessary things are in there already 2๏ธโฃ if weโre leaving after nap, I pack everything while sheโs still asleep. Kind of a duhh tip but it seriously didnโt dawn on me for way too long. Iโll even grab her outfit and have it all laid out ready to put on so that when she wakes up, we can change and go! 3๏ธโฃ recently Iโve started using timers a whole lot more: since the ADHD part of my brain struggles with time blindness, Iโll set multiple timers to help me know how much time has passed. I know it usually takes 15-20 min to get used to prepared for the weather and get out the door, so Iโll set timers for a few intervals before we have to leave to make sure weโre not behind. While these are in no way going to ensure youโre not rushing around ever, but if youโre anything like me, they may help decrease how often youโre rushed. Last thing any parent wants to do is pass down their mental health patterns to their children, so this is my way of trying to limit the stress I add to my daughterโs life. #mymentalhealthjourney #generalizedanxietydisorder #neurodivergents #goodmentalhealth #adhdhelp #adhdprobs #adhdstruggles #intrusivethoughts #anxietydisorders #mentalhealthjourney #copingskills #anxietyawareness #createyourreality #bemindful #breakthecycle #generationaltrauma #adhdmom #adhdbrain #neurodivergent #anxiety #anxietyproblems #anxietytips
As I grew up, Iโd get overly obsessed with different ideas, characters or fantasy worlds but as soon as the dopamine rush would begin to subside, Iโd move on to the next one. Then one random day in middle school a friend of mine let me borrow her metallic blue eye liner in the school bathroom and my life was changed. This one moment opened up a whole new world for me and it rarely centered around โlooking betterโ. Since then, most of my days have consisted of playing with make up to some capacity. Whether it was applying it to myself for the day, someone else to pay bills or just trying new techniques for fun, itโs always filled my cup, calmed me down and centered me. My relationship with skin care and fashion have similar stories. The only jobs Iโve been successful in have allowed me to have my hands in at least one of my special interests. Th idea of getting ready for the day helps me get out of bed in the morning, and get my day going. Since I donโt obsess over trains, coins or other socially accepted autistic special interests that have been portrayed by the media, even I didnโt think that I these qualified as special interests. So many women are seemingly overlooked because our interests are deemed as more socially acceptable. In order to truly identify a special interest, you must look at the intensity of the interest, not the subject itself. Look for obsessive, and in some cases addictive behavior. #specialinterests #actuallyautisticadult #neurodivergents #autisminwomen #latediagnosedautistic #adhdprobs #hiddendisability #audhd #mentalhealthjourney #mentalhealthsupport #autismawareness #autismsupport #autismspectrumdisorder #neurodiversity #actuallyautistic #autismadvocate #autistic #adhdlife #neurodivergent
My brain never shuts off. Itโs like the radio, the stations are always playing, but you have to tune into it properly for it to sound right. Most of the time my brain feels like thereโs too many stations playing way too loud so I struggle to make sense of anything. Iโm still learning how to slow down and try to tune into one station at a time. This neurodivergent brain of mine has always stumped me. At times Iโve been resentful of the way it works. Jealous of how others seemingly functioned โnormallyโ. I think most of these negative thoughts came from not understanding it fully. Now that I finally have a diagnosis that feels like it explains so much of my life experience, Iโve, of course, been hyper fixated on learning more about it. Theres a steady stream of โohโsโ and โah haโsโ whenever Iโm reading (even Meta took a hint and now my feed is filled with neurodiversity) and while my brain is still mostly chaos, I feel more at home with myself than I ever have. If youโve made it this far, wow, youโre truly amazing and I appreciate your interest in my journey ๐ซถ I desperately would love to connect more with you! My DMโs are always open and I even have a broadcast channel if thatโs your thing ๐ฉถ #actuallyautisticadult #actuallyautistic #neurodiversity #autismspectrumdisorder #autismsupport #autismadvocate #autistic #neurodivergent #adhdawareness #adhdsupport #adultadhd #adhd #mentalhealthadvocate #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthjourney #audhd #neurodivergents
