AND TODAY I FUCKING DID THAT.
Omg I'm livid. So coworker of mine doesn't believe ahd and mental illness is real. Before I stopped caring what he thought, before a UNIVERSITY class me and him were blocking the door and yelling about mental Illness "you gonna believe what ur doctor says? Do your own reasearch, dont just believe what they say" I yelled to be fair after that remark. Flash foward maybe a month or so hes in the change room (doesn't work there yet but i work at a pool) I'm polite and asks how hes doing he says good and asks back so how popping then adderall pills? I told him fucking fabulous. My emotions are under wrap, I'm doing good, I'm more focused, I've completed projects that I dropped a year ago. It's going fantastic and my adhd is under wraps. He says it's not really. I go off on him I'm almost in tears his brother though sees the fuckung pain in I'm and says this sounds like a struggle I'm sorry man that's tough i can see just how real this is. And that is what calmed me down. Flash foward a few more events I wrote up cuz he did something I told him not to and he got angry( doesnt work on the pool deck did a pool deck job while hes not working) I said it politely he got angry then told his mom in the hot tub and he full out lied and she got angry but didn't say anything. I wrote him up, he got talked to.
Fast foward again hes commented on two post about depression that I shared. I only indulged one and gave the facts calmly and everything. Then commented on how I find it funny he only comments on the more philosophical ones I post and I know some of them are wrong and I know I'm at fault.
He didnt say anything back.
After that I went into work. I was kind I said hey and I've done that for the past week. Today he tried to get back at me. Told me the change room was dirty I checked it out it wasn't so i told him it's not messy or dirty. He got angry and said I'll show you. One muddy foot print, not a big deal not a lot of mud and were closing in an hour. He points out lint and one peice of hair and in front of the shower area says and that's sweat. I told him that it's okay its not that messy those things are gonna be there regardless is not bad right now. He lost his shit. I asked him what's going on I'm not trying to make him feel attack and he got more angry.
I GOT ANGRY AND WALKED AWAY. Didnt say shit about. I come back out different coworker asked what happend I told her that he got angry for no reason. She said the funniest thing about the whole thing was I asked him what was wrong and he said
MAN THEM ADHD PILL GOT HIM WACK.
Let me repeat that for the people in the back.
MAN THEM ADHD PILL GOT HIM WACK.
I lost my shit. I told her I'm writing it up, the head boss is gonna know about it. So I did. She told him later in the night he over reacted and talked shit about my meds again and how adhd pills make you irritable, it's only the truth.
Guys my account has been here as long as I've know I had adhd. 1 fucking year and 23 days. I haven't changed my dose I take it regularly and everyone at work doesn't see me getting angry or irritated. Yes I am on antidepressants know but ita been 4 weeks and I've had no more irritability then normal the same coworker who told him actually told me a week ago that I seem a lot better and not so upset or ffrustrated.
I chose my battle, everything he has done shows that hes in the wrong. I wasn't going to do anything for him getting angry at me even though I should have. I have let many things slide. Not anymore I'm fucking done. Hes going down. Cuz you know them adhd pills got me wack(when ever someone tries to put me down)
