yall with adhd or autism or such ever just get…. bored. like so Painfully bored. like its not “oh hehe i was so bored and i made this” to flex or “oh im so bored bc i have nothing to do” but like a “i am physically incapable of ending this horrible understimulation with any activity i might attempt” and its genuinely fucking painful

God, yes. I have been too bored to fall asleep before. 

It is so hard to explain to NT people that my boredom is not the same as their boredom. Their boredom is fleeting and easily remedied, my boredom can last for days if not weeks and is more often than not physically painful. Like the pain is not imaginary or an exaggeration, it literally hurts to be so bored and not be able to stop being bored even if there’s a ton of things around me that NT could easily jump to to end their boredom. I absolutely want to be doing something fun and engaging, I can literally see those things around me within my reach, but I need to stop the pain of boredom first before I can do those things…but I need to do those things to stop being bored. Do you see the problem?

EXACTLY

This is understimulation and it is torture.

This is so very real. Or ‘I’m bored and I want to do these things but they won’t be interesting to me right now and that makes me feel broken, I need something to be INTERESTING to me please why am I wasting my time thinking about how much I wish I was doing things instead of doing things what is happening aaaaaa’
