Do it halfway. Take one piece of trash out of your room, throw one dirty shirt into your hamper. Go to one class and miss a different one. Start a drawing without pressure to finish it. Give yourself space to Be without the expectation to Become, and do small things to make the Being livable.
Autumn is just listening to Taylor Swift, Lana del Rey, Arctic Monkeys, and girl in red. It's for watching Anne with an E. It's for celebrating and mourning Jily (the number one ship ever). It's for celebrating a festival literally every week!! Its for scaring everyone and eating sweets as the month ends. It's for revisting your happy memories.
There is so much to look forward to in October!!
so this is all i will ever be?

Tips for Studying When You Have ADHD/Never Learned How
Hi everyone! I have a few tips that Iâve gathered over the years to help cope with your brain not working like everyone elseâs.
1. Find a way to turn part of your brain off.
For me, this means having something that is stimulating in the background, like a podcast or loooong video. I really like stuff like Critical Role, if itâs too funny it just distracts me so I recommend something serious but not really important to know.
Conversely...
2. Find a way to turn your body off.
I do this by crocheting. Itâs like productive stimming, itâs fun, the progress mounts super quickly, and you can redo something over and over if you need to. I use this time to listen to something important. Because my hands and eyes have something stimulating them, my ears are free to listen intently. This is when you should listen to an audiobook or a recorded lecture.
3. Donât read and have someone speaking in your language at the same time.
Thatâs a recipe for not understanding either thing and having your time be wasted, essentially. If youâre reading, keep any background to something that you can tune out but still have in your mind, like lofi or classical music. Sometimes Iâll even use albums that Iâve listened to hundreds of times because my brain goes on autopilot for those.
4. Keep your workspace as busy as you need, but donât let it get cluttered.
If you are a maximalist like me (or love hoarding stationery) your desk might be a little... much. And thatâs okay! As long as you can work with visual stimulation. This comes down to personal preference, but if you know that having few things helps your focus, try to downsize, or vice versa!
5. Structure your study time and plan your breaks.
Structure is so important for my mental health and function, so I always recommend it to others. Plan your study time, lay out what you want to learn by the end, and have some sort of timer or cue for when itâs time to take a break. I recommend short breaks every 90 minutes or so, and a long one after 4+ hours. If studying in tiny chunks doesnât work for you, donât do it! If you need bigger blocks of time thatâs totally fine, donât feel guilty about not being able to focus properly on 10 minute sessions.
6. Repetition is soooo important for conceptual things.
Math and science can be especially difficult for people with ADHD due to memory problems. It is very important that you work at these problems and repeat them over and over to get the concept memorized in your long term memory so you can reach it continually. So, do your assigned problems, do the other problems in the book, find some on Khan Academy, and do them until itâs ingrained. Itâs so worth it, I promise.
7. Set your own deadlines and STICK TO THEM
If your procrastinate until the 11th hour and then produce decent work, I completely understand and see you. However, work with your executive dysfunction and trick your brain. Set deadlines for yourself and rewards for sticking to them, punishments if you donât, and actually enforce them. Maybe if you donât finish your rough draft by Thursday night, you have to finish it before you can FaceTime your friends. If you do finish it on time, call and play some games together. It helps to have a study buddy to keep you accountable and set deadlines with so you can both motivate each other and be accountable. ***Be very careful to not let this affect your mental health!!! Do not burn yourself out and lose your friends, your mental health comes first!!!***
Finally
8. Do not beat yourself up for not being entirely productive all the time.
You are human. You are already at a disadvantage due to your brainâs chemistry. Work with your brain, donât berate it. Eat some candy or drink some Gatorade to give it the dopamine it needs to keep focusing. Take down time for yourself. Let yourself have free time to just exist, practice regular self care and hygiene. You are strong, valid, and brave for going against the odds and pursuing learning at this disadvantage. I am very proud of you, and I know you can succeed.

As most people are working and studying from home right now, I wanted to share some concrete, implementable ways you can help yourself feel better. Though I believe productivity and quantity of work done (or lack thereof) doesnât/shouldnât translate into your self-worth and how you view yourself, when you get work done, you actually do feel better in your own body.Â
By the way, itâs the first time Iâm formatting a tips/guide post like this, so I apologize that I couldnât be more concise.
Iâve spoken to a licensed professional counsellor as well as to some professionals who have been working from home for a long time, and some of the advice above is from them. Iâm also sharing from my own experience as someone who used to be very productive and an (ex-)overachiever, and still attach a lot of my self-worth to grades and other tangible accomplishments. I hope these slides can help you. In case itâs hard to read, Iâve included it (reworded) in text form if youâd like to read more.Â

A peaceful life here with the smell of old books is everything I want.

City of Edinburgh by Ian G Black
Important ideas to consider when creating characters who are black and indigenous people of color. (x)
proud to say that I worked hard to stand out and officially signed with a big 4 firm in ny. no one here in tx has been excited for me but I have to remind myself that itâs okay to be proud of your hard work.
Ginny is the spring. Warm and vibrant. Birds chirping in the distance, paddling through lakes barefoot. New life and hopes growing stronger everyday. Dancing in the rain, holding hands as the days become longer. Running through fields filled with blooming flowers filling the air with the sweet smell of pollen. You can't have spring without its autumn.
Hermione is winter. Calm and peaceful. Snowy boots and thick gloves. Curled up by the fire reading a book wrapped in an embrace of warmth. Jewel tones and bobble hats. Snow ball fights then drinking tea with a dash of cinnamon. Short days and long nights. Rosie cheeks and words leaving lips like the clouds filling the crisp air of winter. Cold hands holding warm. Constantly keeping summer on its toes.
Ron is summer. Bright and carefree. Sweaty palms holding cold. Water fights and walks on the beach. Roasting marshmallows over a bonfire. Red cheeks from the blazing sun. Freckled skin and lighter hair. Long days and short nights. Watching the sunset as the world begins to cool. Always accepting the challenge winter presents.
Harry is autumn. Content and loved. Golden leaves falling. The end of something but not the end. Never the end. Running through forests as the leaves pile up. Singing in the rain as the days grow shorter. A head on your shoulder as the skies turn golden. A hand in yours as the thunder starts to crash. The perfect contrast to spring.
