"you don't look autistic" "you don't look like you have adhd"
brother i am wearing gloves, headphones, a naruto shirt, some comfortable boots, and chewing gum right now. if i don't look nd to you, you do not know what nd looks like.
Autism + ADHD culture is Starting new things because they’re fun only to drop them in like a day because you want to take a small break and you end up losing motivation entirely
I have a headcanon that Kuki Sanban is autistic. I’m also sure she has ADHD. I think it’s strange that I haven’t seen a lot of people headcanon Kuki as autistic. I’ll list autistic and adhd traits she shows in KND. By the way, I’m also autistic.
She’s very emotional. She gets angry, upset and joyful easily.
Kuki’s special interest is Rainbow Monkeys and plushies in general. She knows a lot about them and treats them like they’re humans.
She gets distracted a lot.
Doesn’t usually pick up on social cues.
She uses her imagination a lot.
She keeps her hands in her sleeves, which is likely sensory related.
Lots of these traits can seen in episodes like Iscream, Fast Food, Report, Saturn, Naughty, Home and many more. I’m pretty sure Kuki’s parents are also autistic.
so here’s how i avoid the burnout that comes with stress-cramming schoolwork
1 - make a list of plans you need to make
- rather than getting stuck on “what do i do first?”—
- write down everything you need to do in general terms
- for example:
> make revision cards for the great gatsby key moments
> annotate king leah
> write new resume
2 - write down the actions needed to complete this task
- rather than diving right in then getting overwhelmed by the ambiguity of the nest step (this is often my problem)—
- you write down clear steps you can refer back to
- for example:
> brainstorm all key TGG moments
> organise them in lists by theme (for me, the themes are something i already have a list of) with room to spare for each
> add 1 or 2 key quotes for each moment
> add favourite critical quote for each moment
> add very short analysis for each moment
> copy this information on one side of a red revision card
> put the name of the moment on the other side
3 - repeat for every item on your list
- i write all my plans first because i find that keeping motivation to do so is easier when i don’t stop
- i recommend setting a timer for 10/15 minutes, then alternating between resting/working until you’re finished
4. pick a task, follow your steps
- aim to complete 1 step per sitting.
🫶 this won’t work for everyone, but i recommend trying it if you haven’t before!
(it’ll probably work best if you modify it for you)
BONUS: make a new list where you organise your tasks into “easy” and “dreading”. (or whatever categories you want— i just like these) tick them off in a bright colour as you go along. once you’ve done an entire category, cross out the title. this helps me.
i dislike allistic people. one of my friends does something 'weird' on a gc with people we dont know so i joke about it and then my friend brings up the fact i mimic animal noises (autistic trait) in order to make fun and practically forces me to reveal that im autistic in order to not look incredibly strange in front of brand new people.
goddamn. i just want to meet people without them immediately being biased bc i'm autistic. im so tired.
