object permanence
so quick summary object permanence is an important part of early childhood development
basically what it means is that you understand when you don't see something anymore you know
it still exists it's still there it's not gone forever an example of this is when you're really
young you might think that when your mom leaves to go to the grocery store she's gone forever she's
not however for teens and adults with adhd this is something they still struggle with for me a good
personal example is that i used to put fruits and vegetables in my crisper drawer but i couldn't see
it so i forgot it was there so now i keep all of my fruits and veggies in the regular part of the
fridge where i can see them for people with adhd what's out of sight is often out of mind this
can also manifest itself in organization habits what looks normal to someone with adhd might look
chaotic to someone else we like to see everything otherwise we don't remember that we have it
and this 100% can affect relationships too if someone you see often goes on a trip we might be
branded as cold-hearted because we're less likely to miss them because our brain forgets they exist

very specific icks let me explain we hate certain textures feelings and sounds for example for
myself i hate it when my socks are slipping down hate the texture of tomatoes before you bite
into them i hate being sticky almost to the point where it makes me feel sick this all relates to an
overpowering sensory stimuli you may have a habit of over preparing for small tasks simply getting
up for the day you will set your alarm clock two or three hours before you need to wake up
and add 64 things to your to-do list before you're supposed to actually leave the house
this is because you struggle to understand the time it will actually take to get a task
done your sleep patterns absolutely suck there's a reason for that this is because
people with adhd actually struggle to go to bed at a reasonable time due to their circadian cycle
this means they don't get tired at normal hours so you possibly find yourself getting
tired actually between 1 a.m and 3 a.m we know some of the weird things that you do
with your adhd and comment them down below maybe i'll share them follow if any of these

i can't [ __ ] it like i can't do it like stuff i didn't realize was adhd related part one
body focused repetitive behaviors they are compulsive grooming behaviors that often do
harm to the body pulling out your hair pulling out your eyelashes biting your nails picking your nose
picking your skin popping your joints biting the inside of your cheek picking at your scalp
ripping off your fingernails compulsively popping zits plenty of people want to pop
a white head when they see it but they don't because their brain knows don't do that you're
going to scar your face but people with adhd have a hard time with impulse control it does relieve
anxiety but you feel guilty after we aren't the only ones who experience this
but a lot of us engage in this behavior and didn't even know it had a name
stuff i didn't realize was adhd related part two auditory processing disorder it's when your
brain doesn't process sounds and language the way it's supposed to people with apd have difficulty
filtering out background noise understanding tv without subtitles remembering spoken information
understanding people with accents following spoken directions especially those with multiple steps
and people with apd often say what or huh a lot seem disobedient or have selective hearing
mishear people especially with words that sound alike get overwhelmed by complex or busy auditory
environments ask people to repeat themselves are extremely sensitive to loud noises that feel like
they hurt your ears have been tested for hearing problems in the past but tests come back normal
there is a lot of overlap between apd and adhd but research has shown that they're commonly comorbid
we are not the only ones who experience this but a lot of us live with it and didn't know it had a
name
put a finger down mental health edition these are signs of adhd in girls and we know that adhd

what you're dealing with obviously this can't replace a professional diagnosis but the more
you answer in the affirmative the more likely you are to be dealing with adhd remember these
symptoms can come up in other disorders too so see a doctor or therapist put a finger down if
you find yourself daydreaming a lot put a finger down if you have trouble going to sleep at night
because you can't turn your mind off put a finger down if you feel like you have trouble relating to
other girls you just don't know what to say put a finger down if you don't raise your hand in class

hurt more easily than other people's put a finger down if you tend to pick at your cuticles or twirl
your hair put a finger down if you feel like you're an imposter who is just barely getting by
