emotional dysregulation is a common symptom of adhd, meaning intensity of (initial) emotional responses can go overboard.

researching CBT, cognitive-behavioral-therapy, don’t make this weird!, will yield tons of material, but that’s a journey best undertaken with someone you trust.

had this during exams and such.

take a step back, check if the intensity of the emotion is warranted and let it wash over you, extreme emotions tend to be short lived.

i was not about to die, even if my brain suggested that, and it had to relent after me being still alive after 5 minutes sitting right there before my tasks.

my problems started when i would ‘feed’ those emotions by fantasizing about the impending catastrophe or giving in and acting on them, by fleeing the class room for example.

i guess this would be harder in a social encounter, but the first step is allways realizing that an emotion is to intense, once that’s done its easier to return to reason and not instinct.

tl;dr :

1. realize that emotion is there
2. experience the emotion
3. move on.

took me a lot of therapy to start at step 1 and not going from step 2 to “do a stupid thing you’ll regret in 5 minutes”

libreELEC, but that’s just a distribution shipping kodi.

you might be able to utilize steam big picture/steamOS with different browser shortcuts and applications added as non-steam games to open streaming services in kiosk mode or other mediaplayers , that way you’d have good controller support, if you create control schemes for various things.

first: don’t stress it, sustainable weight loss is slow everything else will end up with you regaining the weight when you stop with whatever hyped up diet or hardcore sports program you tried.

find an activity, that burns calories that you enjoy doing, and do it because it’s fun. try new things when something is not fun.

identify a high calorie source that you can somewhat easily eliminate, for many people that’s sugary drinks (including fruit juice).

get yourself to step on a scale every morning. weight is on a downwards trend week to week? you are on the right track. keep doing what you are doing.

weight goes up sometimes? don’t worry that happens we are running a marathon here. if it keeps increasing you’ll either can do more activities that burn calories or find another calorie source you can cut back on.

It might also help, to either eat slower, because “being not hungry” has a delay or drink a glass of water before every meal, so you’ll feel full faster.

and always remember, this is not a sprint, sometimes you’ll gain weight, that does not mean you failed, you don’t start back at zero.

i am probably not the best example, as i never finished my degree, but studiying is the one thing where pomodoro timers were actual helpful for me, but nothing was better than having a small group of people to study with.

Working on problems together on a whiteboard was almost magical, because so much stayed in my brain without totaly draining my batteries.

other than that keeping things fresh and fun is important, to this day i’ll draw pictures on my notes when going through them, emphasize stuff by putting it in speech bubbles or write stupid stuff in foot notes.

i also sometimes experiment with different note taking techniques, but it’s mostly bullet points.

define “adhd meds”.

Not taking a stimulant shouldn’t cause anxiety or depression, but going cold turkey for antidepressants might after a short while and just not taking those is nothing i’d recommend in any case.

does authentik offer an option to preview a jwt for a given user? might be as simple as that the claim is not named “ocisAdmin” or is not a toplevel entry in the jwt.

not an authentik user, but after skimming their docs i think you have to:

1. create a role “ocisAdmin” via authentiks admin interface
2. give this role to a group in the admin interface or create one.
3. assign a user thats supposed to be an owncloud admin to the group

it might be that you also have to define somekind of mapper to include this in the informations owncloud receives from authentik, but as i said i only skimmed the docs and would personally just try it without the mapper.

oh, thats good to know, forgejo seems way nicer for self hosting than the limited gitlab open source core.

https://distribution.github.io/distribution/

is an opensource implementation of a registry.

you could also self host something like gitlab, which bundles this or sonatype nexus which can serve as a repository for several kinds of artifacts including container images.

try different meds or take them at a different time of day, many people experience a “crash” when stimulance like adderall or medikinet where off.

I take part of my meds in the afternoon (unless i forget it again…) because that way they where off closer to bed time.

never heard of it and assuming you mean streamlit.io

the framework itself seems quite nice, even if pretty much only tailored to presenting data in a good looking way, but i’d never run anything on their cloud service.

By making Provider Content available and/or accessible through the Service, Provider hereby grants to Company a non-exclusive, irrevocable, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, display, publish, perform, reproduce, distribute, copy, modify, and create derivative works of Provider Content in connection with operating and providing the Service.

yeah, no screw that i am more than willing to share code, but nothing more.

and it’s probably easier to find help for flask or django on the internet, both are well known frameworks that see industry use for years, where streamlit seems to be very young and less known(plus the aggressive pointing to there ‘free’ cloud stuff)

yep, turning this into a webapp using flask or django seems like a good way to learn more.

the flask mega guide

or obey the testing goat provide good guidance for someone getting into web apps with python.

obey the testing goat is more focused on teaching test driven development though, but writing good tests is a great skill regardless when you write them.

I don’t want to take away from Matés book helping you/being a good read, but they are a layman when it comes to adhd.

Dr. Russel Barkley often has videos analysing Matés opinions, which are well worth a watch (and he is great with quoting sources so free rabbit holes disappear into)

e.g.: Playlist of his Maté videos, beware youtube link

Keeping focus for a whole movie can be tough yeah.

it works way better if i’ve taken my meds( huge suprise, i know :D) and even better in a cinema opposed to watching on tv or phone, i guess the big screen and proper sound system are just more engaging and there is less distraction.

If i watch a movie at home i often do it by watching it in like 30 minute episodes, because otherwise i end up rewinding multiple times anyway and that’s frustrating, so i rather take a break from it if my brain won’t cooperate.

no, but i’d swap for the ability to remember to call/visit friends and not zone out during a conversation i’d like to listen to.

eh, i guess tommorow might be less productive.

if iam sitting like this iam not listening, because i am to busy trying to keep sitting like this.

give me atleast a deck of cards to shuffle and allow me to look around.

for receipts and such paperless ngx is good. that won’t track your repairs or inform of you of likely maintenance problems, but that and a spread sheet sounds like a good start.

various communities on feddit.de have a pinned post on it
