The only thing in the Hallmark movie with any Buffalo soul was the wife riding her husband about his health and not letting him have any donuts or hot dogs. Yeah, I said it. #BillsMafia

Popcorn moment. A segment of the neurodivergent community is mad at an author for communicating with readers in a sub-community book review group of a popular social video platform. 🧵

Yeah. #Trump is right. No one cares about #Epstein. This isn't about Epstein anymore. This is about the blatant cover up that was done all out in the open. His administration failed him. His people are seeing him for what he and his administration are.

I had a really good day. I overstimmed on the goodness. I'm in panic and heading to shut down. Yay, AuDHD and anxiety! There goes my Friday night! #ADHD #Autism #AuDHD #Anxiety

The thing I'm learning since understanding my autism a bit more the past six months is that energy management is important, but stimulation management is a must. 👍❤️ #autism #adhd #AuDHD

I've had parents claim life would be much easier if their children were neurotypical. To me, that translates to a belief in less effort in parenting a neurotypical child. I argue that neurotypical children deserve the level of love, care, and respect given to any child. #ADHD #Autism #AuDHD

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

As an AuDHD person with general anxiety, it's not so much about the challenges themselves. It's about how much mental and physical energy we expend uncontrollably on those challenges in relation to a neurotypical person. #spoons #facts #adhd #autism #anxiety

People told me my whole life that things would get better. Things will fix themselves. You'll outgrow your ADHD. You'll meditate away your anxiety. Therapy will fix your spine injuries. Wait...surprise...you're autistic? It's a rude awakening to realize those beliefs were lies. #AuDHD #ADHD #Autism

There is a difference between meditation and mindfulness. That difference is I can't meditate, but I can practice mindfulness. 😆 #ADHD #Autism #AuDHD #Neurodivergent

Our U.S. government is arguing English Monarchy law as a reason federal district courts shouldn't hold the power of federal injunctions. In case you want to know how far back they want to go with Making America Great Again. Pre-colonial times. That's how far.

Noise-cancelling anything is a life-saver for my #AuDHD. How did I not understand this even before diagnosis? #ADHD #Autism #AuDHD

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 28/04/2025

One of the cruelest things you can do is blame someone else for your lack of self-care when all they have is your best interest at heart. You turn them into a monster unwittingly and unfairly. For example, "I have to push through for my family, even if it kills me." It is just wrong. #ADHD #AuDHD

If you're like my wife and me, it's your tradition to bring the decorated #eggs to #Easter with the #family. How many of you are taking out a small #loan to deal with the increased costs? 😂😭

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

Ah, #measles. The #CDC has put a price tag on the cost of a single case of measles being between $30,000 - $50,000 on #insurers or the individual/family.

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

Be real. Who's decorating and hiding #potatoes tomorrow for #Easter because of the price of #eggs? #WTF

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Today, I started a GLP-1 injection. Research has shown for ADHDers that GLP-1 can help regulate hunger and fullness queues, which many of us lack or simply miss. The injections could help break that binge and restrict pattern, along with mindfulness, of course.

If you struggle with ADHD and eating like I do, pick up a copy of Rebecca King's new book "How to Eat Well for Adults with ADHD." I've been learning about how ADHD and eating work, or don't work, together. This is a great guide. #ADHD #Diet #Eating #Neurodivergence

Starting day four off my #ADHD meds to see if they are causing side effects I'm dealing with. I'm struggling. I'd rather put up with some dizziness than these thought patterns. #AuDHD #Neurodivergent

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

My doctor is trying to pinpoint the cause of my dizziness when standing. That has included elimination of meds. Let's just say that my #ADHD symptoms are in full force. For 24 hours, I have been having noticeable audio stimming. And guess what the tune is? Oh, oh, oh, Ozempic! Ah ah ha ah!

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

Being on a trial break from my #ADHD meds definitely raises my awareness of how #ADHD covers my suspected #Autism traits. #Neurodivergence

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

I've been experiencing dizziness upon standing for several months. PCP took me off my #ADHD meds for two weeks as an elimination plan. Within 48 hours, my racing, scattered, and intrusive thought patterns are back in force. How did I live with this before? #Autism #Neurodivergent

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 23/03/2025

This works for me. Take control of your information sources like news and social media. I have reframed the way I take in information. Instead of being spoon fed, i.e. social media feeds, doomscrolling, etc., go after your info. Go to legit news sites, people, profiles, or pages you like. #ADHD

In true neurodiverse fashion, I realized it was Neurodiversity Awareness Week on nearly the last day of the week. However you brain, here is to celebrating our differences. ✊️ Some possible updates coming in the next few weeks. I may identify as more neurodiverse than ever before! #WML #adhd

I'm diagnosed #ADHD and have had some positive treatment and coaching the past year. Something still feels different. I've had a suspicion that I'm on the spectrum. I did a screening suggested by #Autism Speaks. It informed me I have a very high probability of being autistic, too. May be #AuDHD 🤷

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

I've been joining the movement of #ADHD afflicted who are calling their condition more accurately Executive and Emotional Dysfunction. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that occurs in the early stages of life caused by genetics, environment, and/or injury. It affects one's EF and emotions.

It seems the term #snowflake as derogatory is making a comeback. Certain people don't like snowflakes because they are all unique, coming in a variety of sizes, shapes, and glitter. Those certain people want snowflakes to all be the same and pure #white. 🤔❄️🫣🤷

Insomnia and other sleep disorders could be your brain protecting itself from forming trauma and fear memories. An interesting and logical concept. I lost the link to the study, so #lookitup #adhd #neurodivergence

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I have a bunch of facial twitches today, which means high levels of cortisol. No real stress except a possible sinus infection. I usually wouldn't make the connection, but it has gotta be it. 😶‍🌫️

Matt Hanley @matthanley.bsky.social · 02/03/2025

Sinus and ear infections are the worst for me. Even low-grade infections take so much energy to try to ignore. It's just right there around my eyes, in my nose, and in my ears. Soooo distracting. #adhd #sinuspressure

I'm not good with transitions. A teammate at work recently resigned from our small nonprofit and it has thrown us into a time of transition. While very difficult right now, I'm trying to focus on my role and my mental health. I also have hope and indications we continue to succeed. #ADHD #Work

I have a cheaper automatic #cat litter box. Regular clay clumping litter destroyed it. I just took it apart and cleaned all the mechanisms. Good old 4D-40 for the win. We use Pretty Litter now and it all works like a charm. #adhd #anxiety #cat

Another impulse buy at the BnN was Mel Robbins' new book "Let Them." Man, I needed this message and this way of thinking right now. I also could have used it when she coined it two years ago, but I wasn't following her on YouTube. Better late than never. #ADHD #Neurodivergence #Anxiety

Just made an impulsive buy and got the game, Wyrmwood. It's from the makers of Wingwood. IYKYK. In this version, you engine build by forming a dragon sanctuary. I'm going to try it solo for a bit, then rope in some others. #adhd #gaming #dungeonsanddragons
