Members here with ADHD?

Seems to vary from person to person, I can get so absorbed into a project days could go by, Suddenly out of nowhere i have zero interest left. That's why i settled on 24-48 hours. Would need to be adjusted to your own needs. Obviously there are draw backs as well, Some projects just cant be done in 48 hours.
Yep, not all advice applies to every person with ADHD as not everyone is the same. but some of the tips shared in this thread should hopefully help out other people.

And what is ADHD
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It's a neurological disorder that has a number of symptoms, most commonly inability to concentrate on tasks, difficulty sitting still for too long, executive function disorder, and lots of other stuff. its a lot to get into so you'll need to look it up if you want to know more
 
i have adhd and tend to find it sometimes overwhelming when working online so i will daily do things to re-channel my focus / energy. sometimes it can be simple things such as a nap, taking a quick smoke break, or cleaning up to calm the mind temporarily. its really just about understanding your brain and how it works because once you get a great understanding of yourself you should be able to learn to create specific things that can help your adhd out when you notice it start to get out of hand. every day will be different. some days youll wake more motivated some days you tend to wake up less motivated but the less motivated days focus on self care and positivty to keep your work life balalnced with adhd we can tend to over work sometimes because we over think. i hope this advice helps and really was happy to come across this thread sometimes you can feel very alone in your own head overthinking with ADHD its that thought/feeling you get like dang something must be wrong with my brain why cant i ever focus im always thinking about a million and one things.
This is so insightful.

I think ADHD can be your superpower as a company Founder.

You just juggle between tasks and you can multitask.

As CEO you have to be generally good at everything, I think it ADHD can help.
So true, I'm surprised how I can zoom in on tasks. All I need is my head phone.

you shouldnt ask people on the internet about that stuff really, you need to go a licensed psychiatrist to get that diagnosed if you have it.
the thing you should ask yourself is "does this impact my life?" if you just lose focus every now and then and its not a big deal, then its normal and nothing to worry about.
 
I have a "lifelong diagnosed mental health illness" that affects my life dramatically. Does any Western-labelled bullshit get in the way of me and my millions? Not a chance! lol

Lovely. Appreciate the spirit!
 
I am using notebook (calendar type) that i write daily tasks from the previous day and when i do them i tick them off (quick note i even write that i have to brush my teeth). I smoke ciggarette once every 30 to 60 minutes + watching the trees or grass helps a lot. I usually take a quick 15-30 minutes nap every once in a while when i get super bored or discracted by everything moving. Jerking off sometimes help lol. Listening to calm music or melodies. Quick phone call helps me get focused. I might have missed something but i hope that will help someone.

For long I have these. IMO the more you search, the deeper you fall into the trap (of the medics). Till I read this thread, I had no inkling about. But it does not mean I will take into my head. My life continues as before. I also have something, don't know what its called, I again and again check whether the door is locked ... I don't take it as negative, in fact I enjoy it.
 
I be prediabetes type2, taking 3x times a day berberine my blood sugar is 2 hours after eating around; 140-160 it's ok, but on some days like hot summer heating I'm tired during the day , now I'm taking trimagnesium complex four magnesium types each with 300mg, I take 4 capsules every day now I have better energy , it's way better but not like I was 20 years old. (I'm now 55 years old but young in my mind...)

Can't buy much supplements in europe like you americans too much regulations, I doing research to find another extra supplement for energy boost but when I read forums, all these things like yohimbe, NAC, ALCAR, TUDCA, makes people more tired than energized I wonder.

Any tips? best OTC supplement for whole day energy? What elite people like Trump using to get this much energy? I think he is 78 years old..?
