Half of the group can&#8217;t stop brainstorming, while the other half insists on meticulously organizing every idea. It&#8217;s a mix of chaos and method, but always interesting. There&#8217;s always that one part that starts at 3 a.m. the night before. And just like any group project, somehow, it always comes together in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Autistic ADHD means I&#8217;m both an internal processor AND a verbal processor. I process what happens around me internally but at the same time I have the need to process it verbally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I&#8217;m in the verbal processing state I need to talk about things over and over again with many different people to get all the perspectives possible. When I&#8217;m internally processing something, I am analyzing every detail and trying to know all the whys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Autism makes me an extreme rule follower. When ADHD impulsivity comes into play, it makes me angry with myself because I&#8217;ve &#8220;broken a rule.&#8221; I feel like a living contradiction. An extroverted introvert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So\u2026 I&#8217;m an open book until I&#8217;m closed?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:clamp(3rem, 6vw, 4.5rem)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neurodivergent ASL peer support ADHD in ASL For the wildly wired &amp; wonderfully distractible.
