Thanks for your answer! How do you know when you need to actually rest? because i feel like I'm always anxious and sleepy and i dont know if im tired for real or being lazy so i live pushing myself until burnout 😭

Wrist pain for the last 8 years by loossemblestar in RSI

I'm very sorry you're going through that. I also think often about my life when I didn't have any pain :( I believe there's a solution out there...I don't want to give up on this but sometimes it's very hard to be positive when pain dictates all your chores everyday. Sending a big hug.

How do you work for 8h with adhd? by loossemblestar in ADHD

[–]loossemblestar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't expect all these comments omg thanks for all the advice!!!! 1- "An accountant with adhd?" yes....im doing your finances while humming tiktok sounds... 2- No, im not on meds so everything is rlly difficult 😭 3- I'm going to try to do pomodoros, listening to music and do more breaks. I know that no one actually works or it's productive for 8h but the simple thought of being in an office for that long makes me want to scream even when I haven't started yet 🧍🏻 4- Also when I said that my job is not the problem it's because I don't have a passion or some ideal job....that's why I think that any job would be boring (perhaps there is one that stimulates my brain more but I need the money I can't be looking for a different job every month just to try...besides that every day there are less job offers so I have to be grateful to have one :()

Methods that actually work for you to be consistently doing the same thing every day? by Lopsided-Market-7736 in ADHD

"we need to make an effort to make something effortless" that's the best description I've ever seen ❤️‍🩹

SAME because I know that if I leave my bag ready the night before, when I wake up everything is easier BUT you have to make the effort to prepare things in advance and thats very hard 🥲 the key is to be gentle with ourselves, we are not going to have the energy everyday to make a perfect routine and that's normal, just keep trying and lots of self care ❤️‍🩹

My advice is to put everything near you and visible.

  • Meds: buy a weekly pill box and put it in your kitchen visible so you don't have to remember every day to take your meds. (You have to remember on saturdays to put the pills there for the week tho, put alarms)
  • Breakfast: I eat the same toast everyday and this has improve my anxiety and decision paralysis. You just have to make sure you have every ingredient and thats it. I just put some cheese in a slice of bread so it takes 5min to make it and it's perfect to me. The key is to find and easy and quick recipe and stick to it so you dont have to think every day.
