@kintsugi_counseling: Do you struggle with maladaptive daydreaming, feeling easily confused, have lots of brain fog, stare off into space, or react slower than others? You may have Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome, which is closely related, but different on a few levels compared to ADHD. I’d love to hear about your experiences with this and if you’ve done anything thats helped! #adhd #audhd #cds #sct #parenting #neurodivergent
I resonated with a lot of that except the "no thoughts" part. How does one daydream a lot but have no thoughts? I have constant, almost non stop, thoughts. I've already been diagnosed with ADHD and have come to suspect I may also have CDS

This is amazing. I've said before that I feel like I have ADHD except slow and tired. But I do hyperfocus when I draw.

has anyone else ever been thinking and then suddenly you forgot why you were thinking about and trying to remember makes it worse so you just drop it

I thought that was part of my ADHD, I can hyper focus on some things but I can slip into the nothing box really easily.

I daydream more than I live in waking life. And that’s fine with me tbh. It’s just a part of life for me now.

I looked this up and it isn’t in the DSM and it got me thinking. How do you personally determine if a disorder that isn’t in the DSM is valid and/or worth discussing? Generally speaking. Just genuinely curious (I am autistic)
