Most people think ADHD is the problem — but what actually matters is what your brain is exposed to daily.
Some habits regulate your nervous system. Others quietly drain it. And that difference decides whether your day feels manageable or overwhelming.
If you've been feeling mentally exhausted, easily overwhelmed, or like your brain won't slow down — it might not be you. It might be what your brain is dealing with every single day.
Small shifts = big changes for an ADHD brain.

Heute wars dann mal wieder so weit, das ich einem freund dieses video um die ohren hauen musste... IMHO sollte sowas pflichtlektüre sein, ggf täglich mehrmals, damit die neuroboring normalsprallos das irgendwann endlich mal auf die kette kriegen mit mühsam gespendeter aufmerksamkeit auch sinnvoll umzugehen...

Well, today was one of those days again—I had to shove this video right under a friend's nose. IMHO, stuff like this should be required reading—maybe even several times a day—so that those "neuro-boring," utterly clueless normies finally get their act together and learn how to actually make meaningful use of the precious, hard-won attention they manage to waste so careless.

This Is What Building Looks Like

Building doesn't feel like progress from the inside. There's no finish line. No moment where everything clicks. Just a quiet morning where you read something from six weeks ago and realise the effort level has dropped while the quality of the thing has held. That's what it looks like.

People with ADHD don’t just struggle to put things away because we’ll “forget” them.

@eliasr TBH, I don’t even know what fungibility even is. It was explained to me several times before, but my #ADHD prevents me from remembering, because I find finance stuff *incredibly* boring. 😔

So, I’ve got some important stuff to do and I took my #Elvanse (#Lisdexamfetamine) to get the energy boost to actually do it.

As a result I am now using #AI to generate #songs from @UncleDuke1969 posts instead. 🙄

The main thing that tipped me off that I might be #ActuallyAutistic (ie. #AuDHD) is my obsession with systems.

I updated my 10 year old blog post to add my current system for keeping and managing ideas for more elaborate drawings and paintings: https://neladunato.com/blog/how-to-handle-crazy-influx-of-ideas-and-keep-ideas-organized/

Since I have a million paper sketchbooks, this is the only way to keep my all ideas where they're easy to find.
