@MakersHour A5 soooo this is the £million #ADHD question… oh yeah, what gap? What was I doing? Where did I put that thing? I didn’t *mean* to break it…. Hey I have just had a *brilliant* idea!! No, I do not need to tidy up the gazillions of unfinished projects first… The solution? (Not having #ADHD apart?) A maid? A housekeeper? A nanny (for me, not the offspring)? But I would find that intensely annoying. Why not just barrel on into life and hope for the best!

Hi, I'm a painfully neurodivergent and chronically underemployed pan nb living in the buckle of the bible belt. I'm about to start a new job ($9/hr), but could still use a few bucks to help hold over until my first paycheck.

I'll be forever thankful if you are willing to support me or buy some of my music. Pics are of my dog, Biscuit and her handiwork; foot for scale.

Thank you for hearing me out.

@lmgenealogy I feel the same about my computer calendar. I would almost *never* remember to pay bills or take care of any other deadlines if I didn’t use my calendar with repeating reminders. It helps me too to have something right in front of me, something that is very visual that lays things out for me in the right way. I love paper planners, but I’ve never been able to stay consistent with those. As much as I wish I could.

I recently started using the hourly view on my digital calendar and that’s been helpful in getting me to ‘visualize’ chunks of time in a way that helps my brain realize things like the fact that I have 5 completely open hours (or whatever) instead of what *feels* like a much shorter time. This feeling like I only have a few minutes until some scheduled thing or dinner time, etc, is a big part of what keeps me from getting more done.

#ADHD

#askfedi are there podcast recommendations for the intersection of #ADHD and #SoftwareEngineering ? Or do I have to do that one myself? /hj

For some reason, I lost all my open tabs in Firefox two days ago.

I have since been able to remember most of those that I had pinned, but still: the nagging feeling that I am missing something, and that it might have been important.

"I need to back up my tabs more often, or take screenshots or something" methinks, knowing full well that I won't do it.

#ADHDMoment #ADHD

I have autism and (probably) ADHD
So I made a detailed system of lists to assign chores for the day which worked great until I overestimated my abilities assigned myself too much work and now I don't even look at the list because every day I dont complete it is a reminder of my limitations

#Autism #ADHD #Neurodivergent

I'm surprised even on Mastodon almost all searchable discussions of ADHD meds are negative posts, addiction-related, comparisons to meth, etc.

It's a shame people in general seem reluctant to talk about medications that help them. Anyways, I was only searching hashtags because I feel like it's a scam adderall gets prescribed more commonly than dexedrine and wanted to see if anyone else agreed 😂

#ADHDmeds #ADHD #Adderall #ADHDmedication #Dexedrine

ADHD and depression are such a shitty combination for me. I end up dwelling on sad things and stressful things because I can't focus on anything else. Then that makes my mood even worse. And I can't have my ADHD medication upped any more, because it makes my anxiety too bad. Frustrating... #ADHD #Depression

How do my fellow ADHD/chronically ill streamers handle the pre-stream wall of awful? Once I'm live, I'm fine, but the lead-up is like fighting a level 99 boss while wading through wet cement. 🫠

I know there's already more than enough to be mad about, but let's not forget how here in the USA the main way we deal with #ADHD is by putting people in prison. Something like 1/4 of inmates are ADHDers. When people say society can't afford to accommodate neurodiversity, remember there is also a cost for not accommodating it.

The #ADHD ick of reorganizing your furniture in your room every month, otherwise you just can't function.

Just did some planning for the week. Given my history I don’t have a lot of hope that I’ll stick to it, but oh man if I could just find a way to plan and stick……

Half of me wants to plan, half of me wants to wing it on the daily (you can guess which half wants what), but winging it isn’t producing good results and I can see that.

I’m curious if any #AuDHD or #ADHD folx have any planning tips that work really well for them? How do you approach it? Can you stay consistent with any approach? It’s a highly personal kind of thing (at least for me anyway), but I’m just looking to sprout new thoughts and ideas around this Forever Problem.

Interessante Idee!

#AskFedi What are somethings that you have found helpful when studying with #ADHD?

Three times over 15 minutes this afternoon, I went into the kitchen to get a glass for my drink. Only on the fourth time did I actually come back with one.

Off to get medicated for ADHD for the first time! Wish me luck. #ADHD
