This plus hypoglycemia 🙃 and that I rarely feel hungry before I'm starving... Thankfully I have my kids who tell me they're hungry so I make myself eat them.

If you're eating hungry children you're just going to get hungry again in like an hour, you gotta find the well fed ones

My partner and I both have it so we judge hunger off of behaviour of the other at this point lmao.

I'm hungry but I can't eat because I haven't bought food or done the dishes.

I could go and buy food, but that requires multiple steps of organisation and going outside and yeah, like I could do that, but I don't wanna put on pants and find my keys. Also even if I do all the many, many things required to go outside and buy the food, I still have to wash the dishes to be able to cook/prep it.

I think I'm just going to deal with heing hungry for a bit. It's less effort.

You sure you're not depressed?

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago

adhd makes you more prone to depression and anxiety. untreated adhd, depending on the severity, can straight up cause depression and anxiety

or in my case anxiety and then that bonus on "not able to do thing (anxiety edition)" makes me feel worthless and then depressed

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Well yeah but like, who isn't?

[–] mjhelto@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

Right? Pretty sure that's the human condition these days.

Never realized this is related to ADHD, just thought my digestive system is stupid or something

[–] Veraxus@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It’s due to the distractive nature of hyperfocus.

I usually not really forget to eat but instead to drink :|

[–] Sasha@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

If I don't have a bottle of water next to me, I won't drink water. If I do have a bottle of water next to me, I'll get distracted by it constantly and drink so much that I'm going to the bathroom every 5 minutes

It’s also confidently incorrect misinformation, which makes it worse.

The one symptom of ADHD I apparently don't have. Keep forgetting I've already eaten...

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 5 points 5 months ago

Thats kind of the same interoception problem but flipped to the other end

[–] folkrav@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah… for me it wasn’t a thing until I started Vyvanse. Now I keep forgetting to eat all day, until it wears off and I binge eat like an idiot later at night.

Reminds me of an episode of Digimon where Joe (I think) says something like "I don't like eating on an empty stomach." But I think that was supposed to be an obviously bad excuse for not eating something he didn't want to try rather than serious statement, but I was never certain...
