adhd havers out there: can you give me advice on how to better incorporate easier task switching into my life?

right now if i'm fixated on getting a thing done i'll keep working on it well beyond the point that i'm even happy about it anymore. this can also come at the cost of taking care of my body - eating and sleeping in particular. this probably contributed towards my burnout from work years ago

@eri the best I seem to be able to do for myself is setting alarms. I don’t like Pomodoro, because that’s not long enough for me to concentrate on something. But I’ll choose how many hours I want to max out on something, and if I get done early? Great! But if a 2-hour alarm goes off, that is a pretty clear sign that I’m likely overdoing.

Then I negotiate; should I just stop? Do I actually need 30 more mins? And set another alarm if so.

But I need that wider time frame to relax into the task!
