Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

ADHD

Simplest answer is "nothing"

[–] agavaa@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's what my partner used to say to me before he got the diagnosis. It sounded as if he never had any thoughts in his head. It put a strain on our relationship too, because he used to answer this those times I noticed he wasn't listening while I was talking and asked what he was thinking about. Sometimes it seemed like he didn't care at all.

Turns out he has too many thoughts in his head, and "nothing" was indeed the easiest answer. I guess it doesn't really matter what the truth is to a random person, but it does matter to your friends and family.

I always tell people the very last thought I had before they ask the question, even if it’s completely random. However, I try to walk the thought process back to get to a point where it’s clear I am listening to them. It’s a bit like a Pinky and the Brain bit, except we’re all smart, just not on the same wavelength.

I was thinking about something, but now I'm thinking about "what was I thinking about" and that pushed out what I was thinking about and now I'm taking too long and I'm thinking about how awkward it's getting. OMG what was I thinking about?!

Oh yeah it was about that embarrassing thing I did yesterday...

"Nothing"
