OK, I've seen enough of these comments that I need to make the first rule.
Do not make condescending comments like "This is just normal things everyone does, not your self-diagnosed ADHD." or "Everyone has ADHD now /s"
This is a meme community for ADHD people, not your personal soapbox. We don't care why you think we find these relatable.
Making comments like these is causing those posting these memes to be discouraged, and dismissing their lived experiences. Don't be that person.
Just for the record, not every ADHD person is the same. I don't identify with all of these memes, nor do I think they're all necessarily ADHD-related. But even as someone with ADHD, I recognize that not every reacts the same way and I don't know all the possible symptoms of it. And If I, with diagnosed ADHD can't know that, you, a random lemming, certainly don't know either!
Likewise, if you find most of these memes relatable, you might have ADHD, or you might have Autism, or both! These two are close cousins, their symptoms overlap and they have a high comorbidity with each other. Relating too much with ADHD memes is a typical first step which led a lot of people to realizing they had it! Feel free to read up on the ADHD symptoms and get diagnosed if you think it's currently affecting your life significantly.
That said, anyone making this sort of comments, is gonna get a one-week ban from this community for party pooping. If you want to complain that "everyone has ADHD now" or some shit, go do it elsewhere. Naturally we use common sense. It's OK to ask questions in good faith.
As always, this is a "fuck around and find out" rule. We'll know it when we see it.
PS: Since we added a new rule, I could also use some mods to enforce it. If any of you is up for this, lemme know. I will only add people who I've seen interact with this or other ADHD communities positively.
And here's an extremely relevant meme to lighten the mood:

Honestly when I'm out solo hiking deep in the woods that's where it happens the most for me.
It's bliss when I can lay there with silence in my mind while watching clouds float by.
I really need to go hiking again.

I once prevented throwing out a broken electric toothbrush for a year

They made us stand for hours on end during national service. I consider it a form of adhd torture.

The only thing that really works for me is when I make it a 25 minute hyper-focussed challenge: Set a timer and make the maximum progress that is theoretically possible in that time. No getting water, no toilet breaks, no looking at the phone. Beats 3 hours of getting a glass of water, toilet breaks, getting hungry, realising I should work out and shower first and finding more reasons to jump up any day - surprisingly. Got to always treat it as if it were a competition.

1st panel: Anakin saying, "We took the ADHD meds so we can focus."
2nd: Padme happily responding, "I'm excited to catch up on all of these neglected responsibilities."
3rd: Anakin with a sinister look saying nothing.
4th: Padme with a troubled expression, saying, "We're going to focus on responsibilities, right?"

I do this as a pro-move tbh. I just make up for it by sleeping late on weekends
