Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
Might I add:
The defeat of the wizard who made people choose how they’d be to be executed
The woman who raised the changeling alongside her biological child
The human who died of radiation poisoning after repairing the spaceship
The adventures of a space roomba
Cinderella finding Araura (and falling in love)
I don’t know a snappy description but the my nemesis cynthia story certainly lives in my head

It’s a me!
I have a tip for people who struggle to do things. I struggle to do things because of depression, but this might also help if you have executive dysfunction? Idk!
I don't usually listen to an audiobook or podcast at home because I can't sit still and listen. Sometimes I will while crafting, but this seems to work as long as I'm not crafting to begin with.
I will put on a podcast or audiobook to keep me company during a specific task, like cleaning out the fridge. What I find is that once I'm done with the intial task, if I am sufficiently engrossed in what I'm listening to, I will naturally come up with other things to do so I can keep listening. If I sit down and be still, the story stops, so I need to keep going. So I might as well clean the bathroom.
What's amazing about this is that it's the only thing I've found that keeps cleaning from feeling like an unpleasant slog. Something about flipping the switch from "I'm listening so I can clean" to "I'm cleaning so I can listen" makes it so much more bearable.
This tends to fall apart as soon as I need a break to sit or eat, or if what I'm listening to isn't interesting enough, but usually I get like three times as much work done as I planned initially.
I'm posting this because I hope it might help someone else, and also because for some reason I've never purposefully exploited this loophole, it's just kind of happened a few times. But I'm thinking I should try to make it happen on purpose.
How to not abandon a new hobby as someone with ADHD
Starting a project and then realizing that it’s much harder than you thought it would be, that you need to get down the basics first and be a beginner, is the hardest thing ever for me for some reason.
I hate looking up inspiration for a sewing project and then seeing all of those items made by people who aren’t beginners, and that results in me losing motivation. I go “What’s the point in spending time on this project? It’s gonna turn out bad anyway because man I don’t have the experience…. Wack”.
Butttt we can work with this:
How to not abandon a new hobby as someone with ADHD
If you can let go of perfectionism, make ugly things on purpose. Make those projects bad on purpose. So that when what you created is bad, it’s not because you’re a beginner, but because you WANTED it to be shitty,, that was the GOAL.
If you CAN’T let go of perfectionism, do parts of the project perfectly,, E.g. instead of making the perfect song start to finish, try to make the perfect bass line first or write the perfect chorus or the perfect bridge. Same thing with idk making clothes; don’t make the perfect westwood-esque corset or the sickest pants, instead aim for the perfect color match of your fabric or aim for sewing the perfect clean finish etc…
Let inspiration come and go in waves without trying to desperately hold on to it. If you get sick of a project after working on it for 3h it’s probably just a dopamine dip,, doesn’t mean you won’t come back to it again someday or that this hobby isn’t for you
You losing interest in something isn’t a sign of failure, so don’t go “damn I started something and wasn’t able to stick with it, AGAIN, it’s hopeless”, just accept the fact that it’s neurobiology and have a journal or a google doc to keep track of all the things you DID try out. That is an accomplishment in itself; having the courage to be a beginner in something and stepping out of your comfort zone to try this new thing. That’s truly a gift and trying new things makes you more likely to find YOUR thing. Or maybe doing tons of stuff imperfectly is “your thing”? Doesn’t matter if it’s not a classic hobby; you’re having fun and novelty
Make an account where you can show your progress;; I made a video on TikTok showing a dress that I wanted to upcycle and the video ended with me just showing the dress in safety pins, as in, how it’s supposed to look once I finish the sewing part. Did I finish it? Well no, I lost interest. But the trying, the thrill of starting a new project and documenting the progress was enough for me that day. Whether I’ll actually finish it is up to me (or up to my brain). I could pressure myself into setting deadlines, but that would kill the purpose of a hobby. It’s not your job; it’s supposed to be fun???
Some tips and tricks I use to be productive through my ADHD:
The “eh might as well” method. If I’m going to the kitchen to eat might as well bring all the cups from my room too
Make it inconvenient to ignore. If I have clean laundry that needs to be put away, I will put the basket in my doorway. Now it’s inconvenient for me to sidestep it. I also do this with my homework.
Hiding or making it hard to access distractions. I can slip into doom scrolling on TikTok so what I did is add the fingerprint requirement to open and removed it from my homepage. Now I have to go through 3< steps to get into it.
Make things convenient. I can get overwhelmed by my clothes so in my closet I have a shelf dedicated to comfort clothes. Pj pants and hoodies mostly, that I can quickly grab and throw on when I need them.
Use the “don’t see, don’t exist” to your advantage. Most of my crafting supplies sit in the same drawer under my bed. They are (kinda) hidden so I don’t get distracted.
Some other random tips
I sort my shirts by graphic, plain or under shirt and sweaters/blouses.
I have my quick grab n go pants next to my most used jackets
I hope these help
ADHD tip: learn to recognize the difference between wanting to start a new project and wanting to plan a new project. sometimes all you really want is to do some research and that can be just as fulfilling if you allow it to be. find the joy in the act of planning and scheming 💕
Okay I'm gonna share an ADHD hack I know for the ADHDers that lose stuff often, like me. (Or for anyone that loses anything, frankly. I don't gatekeep self help lol)
Get a spool of ribbon or a strip of fabric or string in a colour you like--the shinier and easier to spot the better--and tie it to things you lose often. A good several inches of length for sure. You can even colour code certain objects so you're looking for a piece of ribbon. It's fabulous when stuff accidentally gets covered up but that ribbon is still hanging out or if it gets accidentally lost in the couch cushions or under a table cuz it got knocked off. For example I have a pair of thread scissors I lose often. So I tied some green thread to them and boom. Never lost again. And if they are they're quickly found. You can do it to pretty much any object.
Anyways. Hope this helps someone!
PEAK ADHD WORKFLOW
STEP 1: go to youtube on desktop and find a long instrumental study/work/ambience video
STEP 2: open a new tab, open youtube
STEP 3: find a video thats "1-10 hours of silence randomly interrupted by dodgeball/metal pipe/taco bell bong/whatever.
STEP 4: play both at the same time. You now have steady work music occasionally interrupted by a sound so you stay focused but not so much that you space out
STEP 5: PROFIT
Made myself a new lockscreen!
