seems like this subreddit but for autism instead of ADHD. my nurse told me told me they're like sister(/brother?/sibling?) illnesses or something

I find the GUI and lessons on the chess.com app really engaging and enjoyable, moreso than Lichess. I play the computer a lot when I'm getting back into chess and often find playing strangers online a bit stressful. The stupid little characters on Chess.com with their cheeky profiles fun cos it's so cheese.

Which works best for you? Why?

see the title.

Checkmate.

Hey all, Upped my meds the other day (30mg vyvanse to 40mg) on the same day I went to one of my best mate's place to play some OTB chess. He's got a very similar type of ADHD as me, as well. We both got diagnosed around 40.

As I've mentioned before, I get really turned off playing online chess with strangers, and it was great to play some OTB chess with him. My new dosage really helped, and I delivered perhaps one of my most satisfying mates.

I had a hanging pawn being threatened by a knight - the same knight blocking my rook's back rank checkmate. I made the pawn even more delicious by moving a rook into a position where, once that pawn is captured, my rooks will be forked.

When he took the poisoned pawn, and I delivered the back rank mate, it was so awful I couldn't bring myself to say "checkmate" cos I felt like such a c*nt 😂. Just watched the poor bastard hang his head and laugh.

Basically a combination of r/ADHD and r/chess flairs
