My personal experience
ADHD is not easy and requires a great amount of personal growth in order to develop your focus I have great insight on how to accomplish This
@UniversityListerTalk what insights? Pls enlighten us
When trying to be productive. Imagine that you have to work 10 times harder then everybody else and establish a schedule that gives you more then more then enough time to accomplish your goals. Work as if you are doing some type of boot camp where everything must be meticulously planned about your day.
This is true. I use an app called Structured to schedule my day everyday, otherwise I pretty much sink deeper into depression coz I don’t know what to do with my time 🫠
I use the same app and it helps me so much! Often overwhelmed with my day (5 kids, 3 still too little for school 😅) and my mind just feels blank and buzzed out and I can’t focus or choose what to work on. If I’ve written it all up in structured, when that happens I can just check what I’m meant to be doing ‘right now’ and it helps me focus and start moving despite distractions and whatever else is going down. Life saver for me 🙃
Too true!! I keep forgetting what I have to do even if they’re daily chores. Plus, checking off the list no matter big or small gives me a sense of accomplishment 😂👯🎉
Uhuh! Right there with you. If I’m feeling bad about myself at the end of the day I go and see what I’ve actually accomplished and naturally reward myself with chocolate 🍫😂🤷♀️
Happy food 🍫🍪💝😄🙌🏻💜
@UniversityListerTalk Yeah, it's never really helped.
Navigating my ADHD and ADHD in general is tough. I completely agree with this that it can be about ten times harder to get things done when compared to what people without ADHD.
Sorry, my bad. I had a typo in the last sentence of my original reply. I meant to say “I completely agree with this that it can be about ten times harder to get things done when compared to people without ADHD.”
I agree 100% but don’t you think it’s hard to force yourself to be motivated enough to image you’re in that boot camp mindset? When I can get that vibe (usually when I’m running on a hyper focus high 😆) it works a treat but otherwise… can’t get it happening. Any further ideas or suggestions or anyone have any success with that?
@UniversityListerTalk I would agree with this because the mind is a muscle and if it's not used and challenged it might let the development changes of ADHD become more significant. Just like feeling great after a run, your mind after regular use will be in better tune.
