It is inglés.

Without the ‘é’, it says that it doesn’t speak “groins”.

We can correct it in our minds, but as a Mexican scholar explained, these marks in Spanish should not be erased in other languages as they are quite important. It is the difference between “¡Feliz año nuevo!” (Happy New Year!) and “¡Feliz ano nuevo!” (Happy new anus!).

I’d try to be understanding with the parents, but I admit family waiting too long is a problem. I remember watching this video and getting frustrated at every missed opportunity…

This keeps happening and it is infuriating. It’s also scary for people with SMI/SEMI (severe and enduring mental illnesses) such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, as if the fear of the illness itself wasn’t enough.

My memory has gotten worse and worse. I think it’s a matter of age, neurological damage/cognitive decline due to bipolar disorder and other stressful events, and worsened memory that was never great because of ADHD. I need to write everything down nowadays. Other than that, no; I think the rest of the symptoms have been similar throughout my life.

Make playlists of songs within your vocal range and sing! It’s so much easier in the shower. You’ll flow.

Spanish (native), English (fluent).

Edit: Me emociona leer que tantas personas están aprendiendo español 🫶…

You could use a medical directory such as this one. This one is Mexican and it has filters so you can find an ADHD expert within the clinical psychologists. Contact them.

If you allow me a piece of advice, don’t be cheap with these people. Just because they are used to earn miserably doesn’t mean that it isn’t hard. Living super tightly, stressed because it isn’t enough to save for the future… That’s the reality for many psychotherapists in Mexico —not all, but many. If you can pay them justly because of the euro (obviously considering your needs too), do so, please.

Many teachers liked me, but they definitely were frustrated because they thought I was relying on my good tests only, as if I thought that being smart was enough in life. They warned me that hard work was also necessary.
I don’t blame them, and it is kind that they were worried about it, but it was not an attitude or belief, it was ADHD! A teacher even detected my memory problems and suggested a to-do list, but she didn’t know that even acquiring those habits is hard for us.

I wish my teachers knew more about ADHD as all the clues were there. An early diagnosis would have helped me a lot.

Both, depending on the month. I have bipolar disorder.

Also, cognitive disengagement syndrome or CDS. (It is not recognized yet by the DSM, though).

My personal choices are…

• Russell Barkley, phD
• Dr. Tracey Marks
• How to ADHD
• ADHD ReWired
• ADHD Experts

And you asked for sources, but these tools are great…

Apps

MyTherapy Pill Reminder: Notifications are annoying enough for me to take my pills.

Alarm Clock for Heavy Sleepers: I am not a heavy sleeper. I use it as my default alarm because it is highly customizable and it lets me snooze whatever time I need to snooze from a list of options I decide. Also, you can have alarms with different behaviors.

Bitwarden Password Manager: It’s impossible to remember all your passwords nowadays…

Everyday objects

Clever Fox Pocket Weekly Planner: Before, I had reminders and to-dos everywhere (phone notes, post-its, to-do app, alarms…). Now I only use this notebook. Everything is here, from “do laundry” to “Friend’s birthday”. It’s been very helpful.

Fidget cube from Antsy Labs: It’s the original one! It’s nice.

Loop Experience Plus Earplugs: Expensive, but effective and comfortable.

This, and a minimalist lifestyle are helping me. I share it, just in case.

⚠️ By the way, learning about ADHD is chaotic because people have different takes on it. There’s the “I am a researcher, an expert, and all my years of study have let me to conclude that ADHD is not what the DSM tells us but something different, similar but different” (e.g. professor Russel Barkley). There’s the “ADHD is what the DSM says because that’s the experts’ consensus. If we discover something new via sufficient evidence, it will appear in future editions of the DSM. Of course there are other things to say about the disorder, but they are too new and need more research” (e.g. Dr. Tracey Marks). And then there’s the “ADHD is not even a disorder, it is just a brain that’s different from the average brain. ADHD is therefore not understood by psychiatrists but by people who live with it, and we say that it resembles the description from the psychiatrists but it has additional traits” (e.g. the neurodiversity movement).

Sorry for the long answer! I hope it helps.

I am disliking this sentiment. I am on the Fediverse because Sync’s developer and many others were betrayed by Reddit and I wanted to show solidarity and to ‘punish’ Reddit by leaving. The Fediverse’s values are admirable, but I do not share them all. I believe in supporting good projects, even some that are private if they don’t pose a risk of destroying something bigger, and Sync is a good project that can be easily abandoned without consequences if something goes wrong.

You are right about that. I would add that non-human lives are also valuable. I especially believe animal suffering is terrible, ours and others. We are enough to help humankind and also repair injustices to and help other beings.

What I wanted to comment is that I felt this image intensely because it is kind of symbolic. It represents the beauty we are capable of, the way we can be brought together by beliefs and dreams, all destroyed by greediness, selfishness, and unnecessary violence. It is tragic. It is not the value of the building itself, which is debatable, but this I explained.

Sorry if my English is weird.

Learning philosophy (and sciences, arts, etc.) is great. I think their real problem is to be dogmatic or arrogant, which is ironic.

I uninstalled old Sync some weeks ago and I’ve been missing it a lot. I am so excited for the new Sync!
