Vistapocalypse Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I just saw on TV that this is Mental Health Awareness Month and immediately thought of MSFN. I think it’s safe to say that we have some members with OCD, although in my case the problem is Aspergers. Please take care and take your medications!

NotHereToPlayGames Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I'm proud of my CDO (alphabetical order, the way it should have been all along!). I've actually been told that I am "borderline Aspergers" during various social events, lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you once mentioned your condition in one of roytam1’s incredibly lengthy threads. (At the risk of sounding unreasonable, I often wish that members would strive for concision in their postings - but fat chance of that happening!) Here’s wishing you a happy MHA month! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunryze Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 ADHD is an issue I deal with on a daily basis. It's the feeling of having everything to do and not enough time to do it, since now is the only time I can do anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am one of only a few here at work that has computer speakers, Pluto TV, streaming radio, and YouTube access because "background noise" keeps me 'focused'. So I guess I kind of have "exploited" the minor ADHD but my boss knows the difference in my efficiency when I do and do not have that "background noise". I've also been suggested via "medical advise" to drink Mountain Dew because caffiene kinda of has the opposite effect on me as it does most people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think youngsters are disappointed and frustrated by the limitations of life; but as you grow older, you realize this is all there really is. Many youngsters with depression also have another underlying condition, e.g. nobody ever heard of Aspergers when I was your age. I think you should spend less time at online forums, forget about legacy versions of Windows, and “get a life” while you’re still young enough to enjoy it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The character (Jerry "Hands" Espenson) is played by actor Christian Clemenson. Dan Aykroyd, Daryl Hannah, Anthony Hopkins, and some doctors suggest Andy Warhol also all have Aspergers. Or more recently called Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
