Kiki (the adhd alien) is shown super happy and smiling at the bottom. At the top it says „I’m officially a bestselling author“, underneath it shows „feeling like an adhd alien“ on a list being number 10. On the side it says national bestseller category young adult.

Was going to make a comic about a funny ADHD situation but you know what, it wasn't funny and I cried because I'm just so exhausted before the day even starts (I have a book linktr.ee/adhdalien/)

Kiki is standing in a messy kitchen with a plunger in one hand and a stuffed crocodile in the other. She looks deflated, saying "Why did I come to the kitchen with a plunger and a croc- no you know what I don't care."

Kiki is drawn in a more detailed, black and white style, looking pretty rough and tired. Text says "ADHD isn't funny and I'm an adult and I just want to get things done. I'm tired."

Kiki looking a bit embarassed, looking directly at the viewer. The text states: "I live in Germany so I might never run across my own book in person. I'd love to see when you spot it somewhere!) with a polaroid picture of the book.

Hey y'all! Pina will be back with her signature high-quality posts later this week, but just this once, I'm posting for her! (It was my first time using a drawing tablet, and I have no drawing experience at all 😊 You can pre-order here!: linktr.ee/adhdalien

In a completely different and less experienced art style, ADHD Aliens boyfriend takes over posting for this post. The drawing features a male character, waving and saying "Hey y'all. Aliens boyfriend here! For this post I#m taking over. I'm not an artist, so bear with me". Next to the male character, stands his version of the classic ADHD Alien drawing, a young girl with a teal blue shirt, short bob cut hair, and a triangle shaped strand of hair down the middle of her forehead. She is also sporting to yellow alien-like antennae.

The same two characters as before, standing in a room drawn in the same crude way. The girl character is standing up but bent over and with her face and arms on her desk, in an exhausted manner. Even the alien antennae are drooping, with an open Ipad with a drawing program on it. Behind her in the doorway stands the male character holding a cup of coffee. The text reads: Alien works herself to the bone and was extremely exhausted lately. So, as a loving boyfriend, i decided to take over posting for a day, to give her a little break." There's an arrow pointing at the girl character, with the text "this is how i found her the other day". The room consists of a planner, with scribbles and smiley faces, a bookcase featuring books in multiple colors, an office chair, a brown desk and the aforementioned Ipad

This time it's only the male character, smiling, doing a thumbs up and holding the "feeling like an ADHD alien" book. The top text says "And since providing comics for you is one of her greatest joys, this time it was my turn, first time, on the drawing tablet. I'm more of a music guy" The guy says "That being said, only 14 more days until the release! I've read it and it's legit incredible. Would definitely recommend"

Two panel comic. In the left panel, the ADHD Alien character is shown from the shoulders up against a pale yellow background. A speech bubble says, “I haven’t been able to work in weeks.” Another bubble asks, “Why not?” The character quietly replies, “I don’t know…” In the right panel, the same character has watery, spiral eyes and looks distressed against a peach colored background. A speech bubble says, “I don’t know what task to do first…” Another bubble reads, “no matter what I do, I’m always behind on tasks.”

Why can I only get myself to work 2 days before deadline?? 😭 (1/2)

Panel 1

now & not now in ADHD

At the top, a white silhouette stands beside a long timeline stretching far into the distance. A pink arrow runs almost the entire length of the timeline, illustrating how far into the future many people can perceive. The text explains that other people are often able to see and plan for events that are still far away.

Below, the ADHD Alien character stands beside a much shorter visible section of a timeline. A large cloud covers most of the future, leaving only a small portion visible directly in front of her. The text explains that with ADHD, she often perceives only the immediate “now.” The future exists, but much of it feels hidden behind a mental fog.

At the bottom, a glowing star accompanies text explaining that it can be difficult to start a task when the deadline is still outside the visible time horizon. The cloud serves as a metaphor for future events that are technically there but do not feel real, urgent, or motivating until they come much closer.

Panel 2

At the top, the ADHD Alien character looks exhausted and discouraged beside a timeline that disappears behind a large cloud. A glowing star representing a reward or deadline sits behind the cloud and outside her visible range. The text explains that when a reward or deadline is not within her time horizon, it is difficult to begin a task or stay motivated.

Below, the character suddenly appears excited and energized. This time, a glowing star is visible in front of the cloud, within the small area she can clearly perceive. An arrow points toward the star as the text explains that when something rewarding is within her time horizon, it naturally becomes the focus of her motivation and attention.

A final note explains that the rewarding thing is usually not the task she was originally supposed to be doing. The comic highlights how immediate rewards often overpower distant goals, even when the distant goal is objectively more important.

I get so bored and understimulated that I listen to my impulsive thoughts, like I'd do ANYTHING to not feel that bored sometimes. I can't even remember how many toys I disassembled just to see what'll happen - and then I was sad they were broken lol WHAT WAS I EXPECTING

Young ADHD Alien lies flat on the floor surrounded by pencils, papers, and a remote control while staring blankly upward. The narration explains that boredom always came with a heavy, itchy feeling in the stomach.

Frame 2: The character looks toward a nearby pencil while explaining that, mixed with poor impulse control, boredom led to doing random or destructive things just to see “what happens if.” A close up shows a hand slowly reaching toward the pencil.

Frame 3: Alien stands beside a doodled on couch while her mother angrily asks why they would do that. The character quietly answers: “I don’t know.”

Frame 4: Three smaller scenes show the character at different ages repeating “I don’t know”, setting aflame a barbie, glueing a shell to her forehead and cutting her hair.

The Alien energetically vacuums while a TV show plays in the background. It explains that the character later found less obvious ways to drown out the restless feeling, like needing music or television to do chores.

Frame 2: The character watches TV while looking at a phone, showing how watching TV isn't enough stimulation alone.

Frame 3: ADHD Alien dramatically reaches toward a giant bowl of popcorn while shouting: “No, hand, stop!” The narration says she snacks “a LOT.”

Frame 4: The final panels show the character drinking caffeinated tea through a straw and doodling anime style sketches in class notebooks. The page explores how constant stimulation, movement, snacks, caffeine, and drawing became coping mechanisms for understimulation and restlessness connected to ADHD.

ADHD can have a serious impact on your life and mental health. These are some of the things that were and still are the hardest for me. Thanks for to everyone who joined me on stream while I was working on this 🫶

Split comic titled “How ADHD” vs. “made me Depressed.”
Top row: A girl imagines many dreams, ideas, and interests at once, full of excitement and possibility (left), followed by her lying on the floor, exhausted and unable to motivate herself, even for things she enjoys (right).
Second row: She hyperfocuses intensely on a topic, reading and learning until she becomes very knowledgeable (left), but then in a real conversation forgets everything and feels embarrassed and stupid (right).
Third row: She is often quiet and thoughtful but can suddenly become very loud and excited (left), which leads to overstepping socially and pushing others away, making her feel like being herself is wrong (right).
Fourth row: She struggles to maintain routines and work toward long-term goals (left), which turns into a feeling of being stuck and unable to create meaningful change (right).
Bottom row: She has trouble regulating what she says when emotional (left), resulting in a painful gap between what she believes is right and how she actually acts, leaving her disappointed in herself (right).

Third row: She is distractible, forgetful, and often doesn’t have the capacity to reply to others (left), resulting in difficulty maintaining friendships and sometimes isolating herself (right).
Fourth row: She tries to organize her life using calendars, journals, and planning tools (left), but still struggles to prioritize, making life feel overwhelming (right).
Bottom row: She has trouble making decisions, becomes overwhelmed, and acts impulsively (left), leading to a sense that life is happening to her instead of her having control or agency (right).
