I forgot to eat lunch. It’s now too early for dinner but too late for lunch. Also I’m too hungry to think about what to eat let alone cook. I need to eat to figure out what I can eat but I don’t know what to eat so I just grab a slice of bread and shove it in my mouth and almost choke but it’s food and now I can think again! Or I just thought of something I need to do on the computer…

This but tortillas

This, except missing breakfast instead of lunch.

Dammit why are there no salty snacks in this house. I need something with salt but I won't leave the house.

YOU!! Stop spying on me!

Every fucking time I skipped a meal (because who doesn't forget to eat for 7 hours every few days ¯_(ツ)_/¯) this happens and ruins my whole day because I feel like shit but all available food is disgusting (not salty enough) or too much work..

Anything can be a salty snack if you try hard enough. I’ve made some… abominations

Yes, can confirm this.

And honestly, after decades, just letting (and having the luxury to) my ADHD take the wheel & do whatever has done wonders to my mental health overall. Sure, I live a bit differently than those full-of-peer-pressure normies wound have it, but just understanding that is ok too is great.

Not eating today? That's fine, it's not like I'm gonna die of starvation. Won't take those last two plates out of the dishwasher? Sure, at some point it will work itself out, and also - worst case is that they stay there forever, which would be about as un-catastrophic as it gets.
