Violexie0071- there are two youtube videos that I like of Russell Barkley. They are about an hour and twenty minutes apiece. I found the videos to be interesting and informative. He treats ADHD like the serious disorder it is.
There is a wealth of experience among the members and a wealth of information spread across the forums. Unfortunately it’s all scattered about. Most forums go off topic as quickly as our minds get off task, so information can be difficult to locate.
You may have heard the story about putting rocks in a jar where if the biggest goes in first then the smaller ones can fit in around. Then they say it’s like you start the biggest task first and then you can work in the smaller tasks around it. I think with ADHD, the bigger seems too daunting so we procrastinate by way of the smaller ones until “push comes to shove” and we bust our tail to get the big one done at the last moment. It’s just the way we do things.
The point being, don’t get bent out of shape because of to do lists or forgotten planners. I have found that if I always try to be productive with my time, that things get done. Perhaps not always according to priority or in a timely manner, but done nevertheless.
In another forum, Tiddler suggested that other people were our biggest problem. I believe there is something to her statement. If you pace your performance and expectations to be in sync with those of others, then you will end up with anxieties etc. Pace yourself to what extent you can, to what is right for you. Don’t try to micromanage your improvements, look to improve over time, not day by day. Otherwise you’ll get depressed and drive yourself crazy. (Like the dude in my Haloween avatar. 😆 )
