#adhdsociety

Hi community,

How are we all doing ? We all have been through a lot over the past few weeks.

Try to remember to drink some water.

Try and keep your work space in one area.

Set timers when you are working. It is so easy to get lost in a project if you don't have the normal distractions to break it up.

Make a list at the end of the day of things you did and what you need to do for the next day.

Most of all. Be kind to yourself ! This is difficult for everyone. It is especially difficult for non neurotypical humans.

I very much need to sleep but oh well.

You know what i wish ? I wish we had more examples or adhd role models who are middle aged and take medication ( and maybe some who don't). I want to see adhd adults. I want to see successful ones, middle class ones, poc and disabled. I never realized how badly I craved accurate representation before.

I have never seen an adult with adhd on tv before. Let alone adhd person taking meds for it. The only time we see people with adhd is when they are super rich or famous and even then they are usually .....white men.

So. If you are middle aged. If you consider yourself an adult. If you have been taking medication. If you want show representation:

Go to sleep.

I know you don't want to.

I know you aren't tired.

That you don't want to brush your teeth.

Brave up babe.

Go to sleep .

1:30am (eastern st).....

Itis almost 3am. (Est). And my brain is having all kinds of fun on it's own and having sensory issues.

Like when you put a toddler to "sleep" but they are really just making all types of messes.

What is everyone else up to ?

Hi friends,

Looking to the community to see if you have any ideas. .

I am stage managing a show which means most of my notes are from oral dictation. As is a lot of other things.

I usually in my work life have a rule of please write it down/email. If possible.

Does anyone have tips on how to not look like you don't know what you are doing because you can't process quick enough.

The people at the company think i just have bad hearing/bad allergies that mess with my hearing. Which I never really corrected them on.

The literal have, have not. Do now, do later.

...except the object is your life. Lmao.

Hi loves i see your asks. Work has been busy past few days.

Please remember to breathe. Make lists to stay organized and take breaks when studying.

Does anyone else just feel like there is no point in starting new things because you know it won't last. I want to start a workout regime and it can never stick..
