Charlie posting too much BAM at Retro

@CharlieJV I don't know the back story but my advice: ignore all of this crap.

Delayed reaction over here.  Thanks!

ADHD over here, but all cognitive disabilities have some overlap in of the plethora of traits.  Like regulating emotions.  Whenever I realize I've made a mistake because I didn't understand something (getting clarity is more often than not a game of "Where's Waldo" for me), I get way more upset about it than I should.

Much appreciated, @grymmjack !

I'm glad to offer words of positivity and encouragement.

I know how that goes. I don't have ADHD myself (at least I don't think I do, and no docs have said I did) so I'm not sure exactly what that's like. But I can be overly sensitive about the opinions of others myself, like all of us human beings ADHD or not.

I do understand what you mean when you say you get upset more than you should. Things like this happen to me too, and for the dumbest reasons. I make the strangest things up in my head that make perfect sense when I'm in a darker place, esp. at night. but then the next morning when I wake up it's so silly the logic only works if 1 small condition is true about the scenario I've cooked up about whatever it is, and it almost NEVER is.

Don't modulate your behavior or let the opinions of other people bother you or interfere with your work in your "zone".

Facts: 

- You are passionate about BAM and TiddlyWiki
- You are kicking ass with it and you should be proud!
- You are actively sharing what you're doing and learning thereby giving back to the BASIC community
- You're doing the kind of work that is going to be included in the legacy and lore of BASIC
- It's a waste of time to worry about the opinions of others

You don't need the negativity in your life, and you absolutely don't need to let anyone mess with your dreams and passions.

Do your thing, world be damned.

Take care man, and don't stop doing the good work.
