Pina ✨ ADHD Alien @adhd-alien.bsky.social · Aug 14

I wish the people around me would've understood how much hormones can affect my ADHD symptoms. Some days, I just can't get any work done with how bad my brain fog gets and I feel like all I can do is ride it out (and try to be gentle with myself).

1
A graphic with text explaining ADHD and hormones.
I experience worse ADHD symptoms before and during my period.
As hormone levels fluctuate throughout my cycle, so does the severity of my ADHD symptoms.

The ADHD Alien character is shown a few times in different situations that correlate with the text.
“The brain fog gets worse”
“I have more trouble concentrating, understanding and memorizing”
“I get emotional faster”. The character is crying over seeing a cute kitten.
“I feel more overwhelmed and less able to motivate myself” the character is exhausted and slouching over a table with a book.

2
“I keep forgetting what I'm doing”. The character is confusedly holding a spoon, meanwhile a dog in the background is pointing at an empty food bowl.
“I get more impulsive and make more rash decisions” .

During my period, it often feels like my medication isn't working as well.
Lower estrogen levels can affect the effectiveness of ADHD medication.

3
Estrogen affects executive functioning
Our estrogen levels are lowest before and during our period, and highest during ovulation (the middle between periods).
Graphic of a scale, each side of the scale is showing the following: Estrogen levels sink, ADHD symptoms increase

4
A graphic with the character laying on the floor at the bottom of a curve. As the curve rises, the character becomes increasingly energetic.
Ovulation: I usually am most productive and concentrated here
6 days before / during period: Concentration, working-memory and other symptoms become worse.

5
ADHD symptoms can feel worse with age.
Estrogen continuously decreases during and after menopause, which can affect all kind of executive functioning like working memory, concentration etc.
An illustration with the same person throughout different ages. With each age, the color changes from pink (more estrogen) to blue in old age (less estrogen).

During pregnancy, estrogen levels rise and then drop significantly after birth. A graphic with a pregnant person with ADHD, with a curve rapidly sinking and then showing the same person exhausted with a baby in hand.

6
Be gentle with yourself and don’t plan the most complex work into your lower functioning phases. A sparkly and whimsical version of the ADHD alien character, that is made entirely of stars and star constellations.

have been desperately looking for this old erotic Spanish comic I stumbled on almost 10 years ago called "El secreto de Frankenstein" and I'm so happy to report I finally found it

black & white comic panel depicting a sexy, thicc Frankenstein's monster disrobing in 3 different poses - pulling his shirt of his shoulder, seen at an angle; from the front, shirtless, beginning to take his pants off; then almost totally nude as seen from behind. the words at the top read "Strip-tease de Frankenstein..."

the whole point of comics is that specific writers and artists pick and choose what they want to tell a story why should i as a reader be beholden to everything thats ever happened under the sun when it comes to playing in the sandbox ?

my comic takes are generally there's stuff i identify as technically very skillful, stuff that i like personally (these two groups of which make up my personal canon for characters and plots) and then everything else more or less i pretend didnt happen because it was displeasing to me
