Until it starts to get moldy and the time pressure of “enjoying the gift” sets in, it will not move an inch.

If I have two things to write down, I write them–… I write down the one thing I was thinking of.

This happens all the time to me. I’ve made a game of it, that when I land at the end of a thought spiral I work my way backwards to figure out how the hell i ended up at something weird.

Fired for not writing the quota number of lines even junior devs manage to hit.

Adhd kids gets more negative feedback on average, so just more of the negative stuff worsening this negative bias

There are creators around Adhd and autism that aren’t shit. But you need to find them. There are probably more without credentials, but I follow a lot of the ones that has.

Where is my Oxford comma?

I do this as well. Sometimes I challenge myself of figuring how the fuck I ended up in the dread by tying to go backwards om the train of thoughts. Sometimes I’ve managed to take each step back and figure out what started it all, a whole 17 steps back.

It’s exactly like this for me as well. The barrier to start tasks is lower, and the anxiety about all the “should do” tasks is not there, as well as the lack of anxiety when finishing something and thinking “but I have way more to do”.

So combined the mental load is way less, so I have energy to do more.

Tl;dr I have energy to do more, the ability to do more, and the rewards of doing more.

Yeah. Some imposter syndrome in there for sure. Years of “you can do even better (at school etc) if you just apply yourself” is hard to overcome.

I’m working on the negative self talk. I intelectualize a lot, so logically I know I do a good job, but I don’t feel it. So when I get 'attaboys it makes that disconnect very conscious, and I’d feel better if they just didn’t say anything.

Or the thought of “I should’ve started this earlier”, which never happens next time.

I did the same thing in my last job. My manager thought I did excellent work every day, and said things like “good work” at the end of the day when I was on reddit for 5 hours.

I did amazing things that was above my position, so my work was excellent, but it felt so wrong when he said good job when I was pretending.

You are accidentally correct! The best kind of corr… Wait a minute!

The people who would go that far to give him money wouldn’t be comfortable putting that sticker on.

I’ve tried as well, but the chemicals they put in the water is too addicting to me. Even my dog is addicted. Every day I drink it I always get sleepy after about 15 hours, and then my body crashes due to all the toxins and the dihydrogenmonoxide they put in the water.

I’ve also tried purifying the tap water through the coffee filter, like I saw on tiktoc, but it only helps for a few extra hours compared to when I don’t do it.

I came into this thread to find this comment just to make sure it was at the top

It’s just the random button on Wikipedia in a tiktok ui.

Not Adhd food without being less random and actually showing you things you are interested in.

The dev has a hard no stance to adding it though.

Good text. I’ve actually been trying it, and it seems to work well. :)

I feel personally attacked. I just had a 2 hour nap because I did this yesterday.
