I’m condemned to a week-long meeting soon, and it makes me want to put a shotgun in my mouth to even think about it. What can I do to make it more bearable?

Neurotypical people don’t have to battle to stay awake during death march meetings?!

They do! Sometimes I feel like I got adhd because so many symptoms are just normal people stuff. Then I guess it’s just about how badly it’s impairing you.

Never been diagnosed with anything but yeah meetings will put me to sleep if we are having to be quiet and what they are addressing isn’t new information that directly effects me. (Especially if I didn’t sleep well the night before which is often).

If you spend 30 minutes talking about another department expect I stopped listening and mentally checked out 28 minutes ago.

We had a few casualties yesterday. There were some bad flights Sunday though.
