Reviewing the Best ADHD Toys
#Autism #ADHD

On Saturday, someone told me that he eats vegan, has ADHD, and (btw.) uses ArchLinux.
I'm still not sure if it was a joke or if I was expected to call bingo.

Hello world!
At last I got a job! I am so grateful at last I can work again!
With my mental health issues, thanks God, I can still land a job!
I am not unemployed again! I am so happy!

C'était pendant le COVID... Une amie m'avait introduit Š l'idée de faire un diagnostic #ADHD et comme elle me connaissait depuis tout petit, elle m'a parlé de mon enfance, puis elle a parlé de ses enfants eux aussi diagnostiqués.

IGORRR - ADHD
#IGORRR #ADHD

I find the deluge of information overwhelming and things have only gotten worse with AI. Now I can produce mountains of crap using AI and then I have to sift it to see if there is anything worth saving.
I find myself always behind on working through all the information and projects I have...and if by some Herculean effort I manage to get current (this usually involves hitting the delete button repeatedly while telling myself "you'll never use that or need that again") I find myself building a mountain again with great haste!
Yes, I am fully aware I'm #neurodivergent and #adhd. Sigh.

Anyone with #ADHD or #ADD out there?
Does your work involve a computer with internet access?
How do you manage distractions?
How do you resist the impulse to go on hour long yak shaving tangents all the time?
I'm serious. It's gotten to a point where it threatens my employment.

excellent description of executive functioning predicaments
... in a thread at Ask a Manager about ADHD.
I wouldn't recommend the whole comments section this time, because there was too much "well _I_ manage" and missing the point, but I thought this comment from "Han about town" laid out the essence of it really well. Here's a snippet on the challenge of consistently filling out timesheets:
"Monetary penalties or privileges have zero effect on the behaviour, because the behaviour is not moderated by risk, reward, or consequences. It’s moderated by how well I’m able to perform a very rote, boring, *consistent* task on a repeated basis, which is very poorly."

Everyone: Yeah, Hyperfocus must be so great!
Me: I sleep 4 hours badly at night and dream in #cplusplus 😵‍💫 #adhd
