  • It has been many moons since I have done that, and I think both the platform and makeup looks have changed a bit. Also, you should look for someone with similar skin tone and basic facial structure. Learning how to do a cat eye is different for someone with deep set eyes versus hooded eyes.

    That said, I am surprised to see Lisa Eldridge is still active, she has a lot of basic tutorial videos if you sort by oldest (omg has it really been 15 years?). A lot of the other ones I enjoyed seem to have deactivated their channels :(


  • I haven’t earned that

    Stop right there. You have a medical condition that needs treatment. No one earns medical care, it’s a necessity.

    I agree with everything the other commenter said, thrift your clothes, and start with simple makeup. It will help you familiarize with women’s clothing sizes (they are nebulous), and what styles you enjoy. The more time you have practicing eyeliner, eye shadow blending, and blush placement, the better it will look when you’re ready to wear it in public and the more confident you will feel. I used to just sit with YouTube makeup tutorials and practice with them until I found things I liked

    The point is that ADHD is an executive function disorder. There’s a lot of inertia to overcome before starting a task for someone with this disorder. It’s not like she didn’t know it was urgent or important, that actually probably played right into why she couldn’t do it





  • I do actually have AvPD. I was diagnosed at the same time as I was with ADHD (at 35), and it was really a huge surprise to me that I had this whole disorder that I wasn’t even aware of. I had barely left my house in the four years leading up to that, so maybe I should have had an inkling lol.

    I have to say that either my experience with AvPD is extremely different than what’s often presented, or a lot of “experts” don’t really understand what they are talking about. Dr. Honda knows what he’s talking about, though. Thank you for sharing ^^
