I just learned about pathological demand avoidance, recognized mostly in U.K last week and it is life-changing for me. It pretty much summarizes my life🧵:

Find many things demanding including friendships
Question social norms and arbitrary hierarchies
Can meltdown from demands
Often have an interest in people, society, social systems, and ethics
Have high anxiety but may not know they have anxiety
Question social norms and arbitrary hierarchies

#neurodiversity #Autism #ADHDOften have an interest in people, society, social systems, and ethics
If you have any good resources for learning about PDA, please share!

ADHD and hormones, a fascinating topic! 🧵 Preface I suck at biology, so I am trying to summarize what I learned in plain English.

When estrogen level is high, roughly 2 weeks after your period, ADHD symptoms can decrease significantly. 1/n
When estrogen level is low, 1 week leading up to the period, and the actual week of the period, ADHD symptoms are way more noticeable, more emotional sensitivity, and feel like medicine is not working. 2/n
Somethings that might help with the ADHD symptoms fluctuation: hormone-based contraception, planning and make the best out of the 2 high estrogen weeks, aerobic exercise (it is hard to be consistent I am the first one to admit)

For #ADHDAwarenessMonth, I want to talk about some unique challenges a First Gen immigrant in the U.S faces while having ADHD: dealing with immigration paperwork, adulting on your own, cannot detect inattentiveness. 1/n🧵
Dealing with immigration paperwork drains our executive functions' tank. My green card application materials weighed 4 pounds in total. 2/n
No one will remind me when my visa is expiring and when I should submit an application to renew. It is all on me. Just imagine the amount of executive function consumed by tracking deadlines, and tracking where I put my original documents (and there are a lot of them) 3/n
