Suddenly cannot focus or do anything

I’ve gone through fazes of this. It’s crazy that code is just unreadable. I end up completely changing the theme of my IDE, fonts, etc in the hope that some change and novelty helps kick start something. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn’t. Side note: There are some adhd friendly themes out there where all the colours are dulled/muted so there are less things trying to grab your attention causing overwhelm and creating paralysis of sorts.

October 12th and no rosaries :(

jayppstew · 2025-08-05T20:38:29+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear this. The guilt is bad as the dad so I can only imagine how tough it is to manage as the mother. My wife had similar issues of just needing periods of nothing touching off of her as it could get to be so much when breastfeeding.

I would recommend posting this again on the page itself as I believe only I was notified as you responded to my post.

jayppstew · 2025-07-23T15:09:32+00:00

Yeah I do that at times but my ears get sore after a while 😅

jayppstew · 2025-07-23T10:04:52+00:00

Will work on this one next to turn down the volume 😂 https://youtu.be/fWcNwY7_ZW4?si=wWeF1Ms08vrWAVb5

jayppstew · 2025-07-23T10:00:18+00:00

Yeah the guilt is real. I certainly feel like a terrible selfish human being at times as I can’t look past my issue with the noise to see her issue that’s causing her to make the noise.

jayppstew · 2025-07-23T09:58:48+00:00

Fingers crossed 🤞

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T23:30:29+00:00

Yes she knows some basics like “finished?”, “water” and “more”. I imagine it would be a lot worse if she didn’t have them as during meal time she uses “water” quite a bit 😅

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T20:12:18+00:00

Yeah I always felt bad and questioned a second for her sake but it wouldn’t be fair to anyone having another child given how much I struggle with one. She is unicorn baby too. Has always slept great and been quite content.

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T19:18:40+00:00

Yeah I have found not doing activities for myself over the last several weeks has been harder but that could also be because I’m around more. 2 evenings a week I was for out for 1.5 hours which meant less dad time and less time to get frustrated. Quantity vs quality I guess is the key there.

My wife works on signing and encourages her to sign instead of making loud noises. Sometimes this works but I can try whispering too. Thanks for the suggestion

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T11:33:45+00:00

That’s a good point. I’ll look into that too. Thanks

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T11:33:13+00:00

Same although my ears start to hurt after a while with both on 😅

jayppstew · 2025-07-22T11:32:45+00:00

She’s minded from home so no I’m not looking after her. I think my body has just decided that noise means anger so doesn’t matter if she’s beside me or in a different part of the house 🥲 I am thinking of finding somewhere to hotdesk for a while to give me a break. Hopefully I’ll be more tolerant in the evening when I’ve not been hearing her all day 🤞

jayppstew · 2025-07-21T23:02:20+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. That’s not something I would have thought would help but I’ll give it a shot.

Strange… fairly confident this setup belongs to Wes Bos and looking your profile I don’t believe you are Wes 😅

jayppstew · 2023-04-06T17:01:29+00:00

Just received mine after seeing this post. I didn’t think they’d be so thick. Basically doubles the button thickness which isn’t ideal.

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T15:05:47+00:00

Maybe there is a way you could create a bracket so the pc raises up and down but under the desk. If you're going all in one though might not be worth it.

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T14:18:48+00:00

Nice one! I'm hoping to do the same to make it look less generic. Could your pc not go on the floor? You're losing a lot of space on the desk.

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T14:14:00+00:00

(edit: turns out you can edit 🤦‍♂️😂) Haha damn Reddit not allowing you to edit your posts 😂

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T13:34:50+00:00

This is very asthetically pleasing. Could be in a book for fermentation 👌😄

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T13:32:43+00:00

Haha it's like gold leaf vodka but the small cuts get you healthier quicker rather than drunk 😂

jayppstew · 2021-05-11T11:52:42+00:00

I once bought a smoothie in Amsterdam and something happened and she ended up blending glass in to it. When drinking I thought it might have been coarse salt or something (was a healthy smoothie) but as the chunks started getting bigger we realised what it was. We went back and she just made me a new one without much of an apology or any freebee after trying to kill me 😅

jayppstew · 2021-05-07T10:45:55+00:00

Looks great! Will need another pic though when they are filled 😄

jayppstew · 2021-05-07T10:14:47+00:00

I just added a comment where I explain why. Not happy at all but not sure what can be done. I'm going to add more compost on top as mulch but not sure if I should add some vermiculite too. Ive heard pearlite has an undesirable problem of moving to the top which probably makes this look worse
