I do too, although I rarely keep a browser window open, except at work, when I'm (supposedly) working. XD

I feel attacked. XD

Let's just say it's a constant struggle.

My best productivity was probably for the first two weeks on my first #ADHD medication, and then it went back to normal, no matter how many meds I tried.

So, now I'm off all of the adhd, depression, and anxiety meds. I kinda used them to get a feel for what it was like for my brain to function normally, and I just do my best to maintain THAT.

Also, I keep harping on this like a freaking #INFLUENCER, but #YerbaMate has been the very best long-term ADHD remedy I've found so far. Very stable and strong uplift. Regular tea is like riding an escalator, coffee is like a rocket that explodes half the time, mate is like a 737.
Just perfect.

It could just as much be the ritual as the actual actual caffeine or other qualities. I find rituals to be very strong factors in my own ability to focus.

No, not at all. Absolutely not a ritual, and the fact that I'm literally quoting the spice guy from Dune when preparing it doesn't mean anything at all. 🤣

Yeah. It's very ritualistic. Kind of like smoking a pipe, but it's a drink.

Have you done both?

The mate + bombilla combo is very pipe-like.
The yerba itself is vaguely similar to flavored pipe tobacco, if... lol... grass were a flavor. XD

Dude, Jelly Belly flavors are just WRONG.

And no, I haven't had that one. I've had popcorn, though, which is awful in that it's actually enjoyable. XD

Regular black licorice is still the worst flavor. :P

That's one of their "beanboozled" flavors, though; the idea is they make identical-looking jelly beans with bad flavors, then mix theme with the regular ones. A kind of russian roulette, I guess.

I liked the black licorice ones, those were my favorites.
