Haven't any of y'all tried being incompetent?

I try to avoid caffeine, so I just am unhelpful instead.

Me, a Neurodivergent: i don't need any of this pesky chemical stimulant stuff to get through life.

Also me: Addicted to both caffeine and sugar.

For overachievers there's also the fear of being seen as a fraud >.<

If you microdose a breakdown by crying in a closet afterwards you get extra cooldown reduction.

Yeah, dunno. The problem is, that reality in this case is often perceived through a filter of "not being good enough" and "people dislike me" and stuff like that. It's not really reality, is it.

Yeah, that's the idea I was trying to get at, but I am not good with words.

You forgot spite. Spite is more effective than anger because it's less distracting and lasts longer.

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Spite is the brand name for Anger XR.

I stopped taking my prescription two weeks ago because some of its side effects felt very unpleasant. The first couple of days went great (with help from coffee and weed) but I'm already in doubt whether this was a good idea.

A good sativa seems to supply what my brain is missing.

[–] CommissarKrieg@leminal.space 5 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Explain to me how that works

My head is loud with too many thoughts and thc makes it a bit quieter

I always feel like my brain and my body are out of sync. When I used to smoke, it was like the gears suddenly synced up, and everything was running smoothly.

But in the past year or so, it suddenly became ANXIETY: Full steam ahead!

Brains are dumb

i feel normal on THC. i don’t get couched anymore and haven’t for a long time. when i’m high it’s truly a mild psychoactive period and mostly a realignment of my nerves.

Why is Mac wearing a hardhat?

[–] monkeyman512@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Because the meme can work a lot of construction workers also.

Replace caffeine with weed and yes.

[–] AWistfulNihilist@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

I prefer both caffeine and weed

[–] nixus@anarchist.nexus 3 points 1 day ago

Have you tried caffeine AND weed? It was truly a magical combination for me.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Both. And nicotine. And the anger.

Just saving shit like this to show my brother how much he relates

I had a lovely conversation with another unmedicated parent. It's the first time in a while that the mask came off a bit in that circle. It was nice.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Been living that since I quit school

[–] CommissarKrieg@leminal.space 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)
