What a great piece
My goodness. It’s a real thing?
I also have Alice in Wonderland Syndrome. Learning that AIWS was a real thing as an adult was shocking and then brought me a great deal of comfort, making me feel less insane.
Now learning about tachysensia i am equally shocked and comforted. It was always very scary when I experienced it as a child and would often happen specifically with my father, who was a difficult and often mentally abusive person. He was scary to begin with but sometimes his movements would become faster than a human should be able to move and he would be so much louder than anything else which made me so much more afraid.
I can’t believe this is a real thing. Absolutely amazing.
Awesome awesome. Thanks, ren.
Curious how you compile this list. Are you using one source or pulling from a handful? I get AllMusic’s “new this week” list but always looking for more resources to inform me of new music releases.
Have you listened to much from your list so far? Anything stand out? I’m excited for Guided by Voices (discovered them in college browsing the cd section at the city library).
It’s sure is helpful. Thank you!
I missed this one. I love how widely relatable all his stuff is. Sure it’s specifically about the ADHD but I imagine just about anyone alive in this age can relate to a ton of these comics.
Thanks
That’s cool. What does you work journal look like? Just a list of things or do you track time or any other details?
I keep thinking how I should do this but am a bit afraid of starting and not keeping up with it because of a lack of structure.

The most salient point here.
Absolutely mind blowing.
The last paragraph is noteworthy. Particularly the “However” and the “Additionally” parts:
The study makes an important contribution to the scientific understanding of psychological specificities of individuals with ADHD. However, it also has limitations that need to be considered. Notably, it was performed in one specific political situation and on members of a small homogenous national group. Additionally, all findings were based on self-reports. Studies on other cultures and using clinical diagnosis of ADHD might yield different results.
Not a thing.
Feel exposed?
That’s my primary real world example for this too 🤣
Throughout my career, this was the attribute that doomed me. It was debilitating and crushed my confidence. That is until switched fields to project management/business analysis. The whole field is rooted in gaining full understanding of how everything works and who does what.
Suddenly I am valuable largely because I ask people to repeat themselves or to clarify. I think people assume I do it for the sake of the room and while that might be a secondary benefit, my sole reason for doing it is either because I forgot what was just said because I was thinking about 47 other things at that exact moment, or because I genuinely don’t understand. And that confidence to not pretend I understand anything ever, only adds more value.
I don’t do this in all meetings or settings because that would end up being annoying and devalue the trait; I’ve learned to read the room. But specifically when I am doing business analysis, project management or consulting with my colleagues on upcoming work, I do and it goes over quite well.
Strange how things work.
Ah! I though putting the growing zone in the post title might be the same as including the region. I’m in the midwest near Chicago in zone 5/6.
It has not flowered yet so maybe I’ll post again when that happens.
