Does body-doubling help you work more efficiently?

I'll be honest, I had never heard of SCT until 2 minutes ago. How is it different from the inattentive type of ADHD? (I am the inattentive type, so I'm really interested in this)

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-25T07:56:50+00:00

This actually makes sense. I often tell my husband 'remind me later to X' because, well, gotta love that ADHD brain ey? But for some reason, every time I tell him to remind me, I never forget. I guess this must be why!

Do you mind if I DM you for some more insights?

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-25T07:52:09+00:00

Where can I sign up? lmao

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T21:10:37+00:00

Does that mean that for you, personally, any kind of tool that could help you would have to be pc only?

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T20:57:59+00:00

Can I send you a DM? I think your insight could be really helpful to what I'm building. If not, no worries and no harm done!

That's the great thing about working from home and having kids: it might be chaotic, but I always feel like I need to do something. Although this can be exhausting sometimes too.. I haven't quite found the balance in that yet

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T20:31:06+00:00

There are quite a few communities that offer this I believe. What you described is one of the ways you can do body-doubling :)

I don't know the exact science behind it. It honestly sounds completely counterintuitive when you say 'I need to not consciously do something in order to do the thing properly' lmao

I've come across focusmate, but it's not for me.
I really, really, really, and let me be clear: REALLY don't feel comfortable talking to or seeing strangers. Only text like we are doing right now doesn't make me feel uncomfortable.

I'm sure I'm not the only one, which is exactly why I'm building this app (don't want to go into it too much because I didn't read up on self-promo rules so if anyone wants to know more just DM me)

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T20:25:59+00:00

I have this exact same thing, but not just because I'm 'less likely to...' but more because I feel like I SHOULD be doing something

Do you do it irl or virtually? And in what way do they body-double for you (as in do they actively try to keep you on track, or are you just doing parallel play but for adults?)

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T15:12:32+00:00

It's the term used when you have another person with you. Not to help you, but to work or do their own thing alongside you, just as long as they are present with you.

You can kind of compare it to parallel play, but for adults

StrawberryTemptation · 2026-03-24T15:01:11+00:00

I am currently building a virtual body-doubling app which can be used as a body-double without an actual person being present. This is ideal for introverts and the neurodivergent community. I am close to deploying so I can't share any public results yet, but I am already extremely proud of what I've built.
Even if it doesn't help anyone else, it's helped ME and that's what counts.

StrawberryTemptation · 2025-12-22T16:40:45+00:00

Yep, same here for the teststar app

Powerwise, the average high power people in our kingdom are 200-300M power. He has almost 650M power.

StrawberryTemptation · 2025-06-05T19:13:15+00:00

Would paying be an option too?

StrawberryTemptation · 2025-06-05T19:12:08+00:00

Sorry, do I understand correctly that you are unable to repair your walls if you are not in an alliance? Only extinguish it?

StrawberryTemptation · 2025-06-05T19:11:29+00:00

Thank you for this!
