adhd math is knowing your appointment starts in 30 mins and is a 28 minute drive on google maps, so you don’t need to set off for another 12
you can pre-order my book UNMASKED: the ultimate guide to adhd, autism & neurodivergence now amazon.co.uk/dp/0241651980/…
@elliemidds Or, you’ve spent the last 5 hours hyperfocusing on the appointment and couldn’t do anything else while waiting to leave.
@elliemidds My bestie calls this "being a Time Optimist."
@elliemidds We assume all lights will be green, no traffic , accidents or parking issues. And that our driving will be speedily superb. Every.Time.
@elliemidds I can only set off on quarter hours though - so do I set off now, or in 15 minutes?
@elliemidds This tweet is giving me a panic attack. Part autistic but mainly my Dad insisting ‘on time’ meant half an hour early.
@elliemidds Yet another thing I thought everyone did.
@elliemidds My brain thinks it takes 15 minutes, an hour and a half, or basically the whole day to get anywhere. There are no other options. 30 minutes? Sounds like 15 to me. 45 minutes? That's an hour and a half, baby. An hour away? Better pack two bags, I'm headed on a day trip.
