This could be the connection between Ehlers-Danlos and neurodivergence. (People with EDS, like me, are 7 times as likely to be autistic and 5 times as likely to have ADHD -- also like me.)

Some days I am just on fire!

@adhd

A meme featuring a man in a business suit smiling broadly with the text: “ADHDers crossing off one item from their to-do list: some days I am just on fire”. The man is standing in an office setting, and his enthusiastic expression seems to humorously exaggerate the sense of accomplishment one might feel after completing a task on their to-do list. The meme uses this image to depict a moment of overachievement or great satisfaction, playing on the common experience of those with ADHD feeling particularly successful upon completing tasks.

    I feel like I'm always "just chilling"🤦‍♂️ 😬

    @adhd

    A three-panel comic featuring two cartoon dinosaurs. The comic has a simplistic art style with solid colors and clean lines. In the first panel, a blue dinosaur with a long neck is standing in a green landscape against a teal background. It has a relaxed expression and says, "I'm currently neglecting major responsibilities." The second panel shows a green dinosaur with a spiky back. It looks curious and asks, "To do what?" In the third panel, the blue dinosaur reappears with the same relaxed expression and posture, replying, "Well, right now I'm just chillin'." The bottom of the comic has the text "ADHDinos" in bold letters, suggesting that the comic is related to the experiences of individuals with ADHD. There are also icons representing Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit, followed by "/ADHDinos," which is likely the social media handle where this comic can be found.

    My limitless desire for information always gets hindered by my very limited memory.

    There's nothing like the ADHD experience of going to google something and immediately forgetting what you were going to search so you have to look through your recent apps to find whatever triggered the thought, but then get distracted in the apps, then just rinse and repeat.😩

    Motivation is my worst enemy.

    @adhd

    A simple line drawing featuring a central stick figure labeled “My ADHD self.” On each side of this figure, there are two smaller figures pulling on the central figure’s arms in opposite directions. The figure on the left is labeled “Hating being told what to do” and is drawn with an angry expression. The figure on the right is labeled “Needing external accountability to get things done” and also has an angry expression. The drawing depicts the inner conflict of needing structure while resisting direction.

    The ADHD urge to lie about why you didn't do something because "my brain refused to start on it" doesn't make sense to a lot of neurotypicals.

    @adhd

    This behavior has gotten me into a lot of shit over the years😬🤦‍♂️

    My greatest tragedy is that I literally always want a nap, right up until ten pm, when I feel utterly alive and electrified.

    @adhd

    I know I'm not the only one...right?😅
