    Why are there so many ADHD memes in here?

    I really just wanted to check the weather report 3h ago. Now I know a lot more about processed cheese, even though I’m vegan

    Acoustics: Wake up 5 mins later than usual, making you skip the first step of the perfectly planned morning routine: MY DAY IS RUINED!! I might aswell skip work and hit me unconscious till tomorrow.

        I wish it was that easy. But see? If you skip the first step, that’s two minutes after waking up, the rest of the day is gonna be off, I’m gonna start the day badly and probably skip even some more steps of the routine out of disorientation.

        I learned with a bunch of practice to set some “checkpoints” during the day; moments in which my routine “resets” and I can restart from there. So if I skip the first step of the morning routine, it will be tough until I reach the next “checkpoint” and things can start again from there. My first comment was mostly an hyperbole (I can survive if I wake up 5 minutes late), but it has truth on it since it is really difficult to move in the day without your routines.

          You seem to have read this as a proposal. I’d still try to stick to the plan even if I lag behind and there is no realistic way to make it in time

        Yeah, that’s the only time where it feels fulfilling actually 🤣

        So kind of our employers to find a comfy well-lit office buikding for us to scroll through memes on, while we actually buckle down to work on the last 2 days of the week, eorkkmg from home.

    That’s the exact reason I have my adderall and a glass of water sitting right next to my alarm. Doing just that has shaved an hour of faffing around off my morning routine.

    my family still thinks adhd is “hey look a squirrel disease” but every time I see a post about it I have an “oh fuck I’m literally doing that right now” moment and get more pissed off at them
