a lot of ND& #39;s are sharing their thoughts on the j situation from before and i may not be good at words when it comes to my feelings, but i will try to Articulate it as much as i can.
i wasn& #39;t here when the j situation happened. the moment i woke up, it was already the aftermath.
i wasn& #39;t here when the j situation happened. the moment i woke up, it was already the aftermath.
all his tweets in regards to the situation has been long since deleted and a few minutes later after i woke up, j is posting an apology. i had to ask my friends who were awake during the time to explain to me what& #39;s going on and upon reading the original tweets: i honestly did-
not see the problem with it at first. if anything, i was hyperfocusing on the fact j admitted to having adhd and it made me extremely happy to know one of the people i stan experiences something i do as well.
but then as soon as i started reading people& #39;s thoughts on it more,-

mostly from neurotypicals, i was able to realize more what possible negative implication his words had on neurodivergent people.

once i understood it more, i got upset and felt a bit disappointed. but that doesn& #39;t come near to how much anxiety and pressure i felt from people-
making posts about unfollowing j or unstanning day6 or maybe even seeing them only as an ot4 instead. so many people on here made me feel like i was a bad person for still possibly wanting to continue supporting day6 as a whole, including j. i felt like i needed to share the-
same opinions with those who were furious at j or else i& #39;d be labelled as a shitty person.
to clarify, i& #39;m not saying that what j did wasn& #39;t bad, because i know it is after reading other posts about it. but what i& #39;m saying is that i felt pressured into cancelling someone-

instead of going about the situation in a much calmer way. stan twit is so quick on cancel culture that a lot of neurodivergent people feel compelled to follow suit unless they want to be bombarded with hate. we constantly feel like we have to make our opinions match everyone-
else& #39;s because we don& #39;t want to face negative and aggressive reactions from those who shut down other for not having the same opinion.
it& #39;s like i was being told to press the undo button on stanning day6. when it comes to my adhd and my hyperfixations, the undo button is stuck-
it& #39;s like i was being told to press the undo button on stanning day6. when it comes to my adhd and my hyperfixations, the undo button is stuck-
until further notice. i can& #39;t press it no matter how much people tell me to because these are the things my brain decided to hyperfixate on. it& #39;s latched onto it. even if you tell me that it& #39;s easy to unlatch myself from it, i literally cannot do that. it& #39;s impossible. when you-
hyperfixate on something, it& #39;s like your brain is unconsciously sticks you to this one thing and you cannot, for the life of you, consciously unstuck yourself from it. like i can& #39;t mentally pull myself away no matter what and i need people to understand that.
cancel culture-
cancel culture-
surely does not work. and neither does hate. both of these things are a toxic way to deal with someone making a mistake; ESPECIALLY someone with adhd like j.
when you have adhd, you think way too fast, way too slow, or not at all.
the way some neurotypicals handled the-

situation so aggressively was really upsetting and i really hope this serves as a lesson for all of you that you can go about something through the means of a calm conversation involving some education on the matter.
all of you were quick to jump into an issue that has NOTHING-

again, i& #39;m not saying what j did or said wasn& #39;t bad. it was and he still needed to apologize. i don& #39;t want you people reading these experiences that neurodivergent people had and go like: OH! so technically j didn& #39;t do anything wrong since these people didn& #39;t-
