Saw this on an ADHD Memes account on X. Shit happens more than I would like to admit. lol
Two panels. Top panel shows a cake with the words "You're nauseous because you haven't eaten." The bottom panel has a frustratied cartoon man with the words "I can't eat this I'm nauseous."
This plus hypoglycemia 🙃 and that I rarely feel hungry before I'm starving... Thankfully I have my kids who tell me they're hungry so I make myself eat them.
I'm hungry but I can't eat because I haven't bought food or done the dishes.
I could go and buy food, but that requires multiple steps of organisation and going outside and yeah, like I could do that, but I don't wanna put on pants and find my keys. Also even if I do all the many, many things required to go outside and buy the food, I still have to wash the dishes to be able to cook/prep it.
I think I'm just going to deal with heing hungry for a bit. It's less effort.
You should try and work on yourself or get the help you need if you truly are. It's not something that should be dismissed just because you hear it may be common among others
Yeah… for me it wasn’t a thing until I started Vyvanse. Now I keep forgetting to eat all day, until it wears off and I binge eat like an idiot later at night.
Unfortunately that kind of forgetting tends to be forgetting if I took my meds before work. Since I fall pray to always being late, and coffee in addition to the "fuck fuck fuck not again!!" rushing around makes it hard to know if my meds are kicking in or if the former making me feel awake.
Reminds me of an episode of Digimon where Joe (I think) says something like "I don't like eating on an empty stomach." But I think that was supposed to be an obviously bad excuse for not eating something he didn't want to try rather than serious statement, but I was never certain...
