idk man sometimes i like it when video game writers are allowed to plan a series of events that happen in a specific order and affect each other in turn to become an overarching narrative, and i don’t mind trusting those writers to take me through those events in the order that is emotionally effective. i don’t really care if a game forces me to go through the forest area first before i can attempt the icy area because maybe there’s things that happen in the forest area that inform later scenes in the icy area. maybe we don't need more superficial player choice open world concepts if it comes at the cost of the ability to write a story with actual significant plot events and character development in each section

ADHD medication does not cure you of ADHD btw.

Just because it may help you focus and be more motivated, does not mean you will automatically understand things. It’s not a “be smart” drug.

But medication helps tremendously so it’s nice.

[kalimarmar]

On a related note:

ADHD medication provides focus, not discipline.

Which is something I discovered after getting back on them after being off of them for a couple months. So I suddenly had energy and focus for things that were previously too tedious, but no magical discipline to do something I didn't want to do, like chores. Instead, I powered through a whole bunch of tedious, non-productive crafts.

The medicine helps! But you have to provide a good direction for the focus, and that comes from yourself.

[lilybug-02]

OH! This is a wonderful addition! Additionally:

ADHD medication can give HARMFUL extreme focus.

I recommend not being on your phone or the internet for a certain amount of time after taking the medication*!

If I wasn't at school or work, and did that, I would spend the ENTIRE day online and end up horribly guilty and mentally exhausted at 10 PM. Sometimes this still happens to me (even without medication). But it's important to keep in mind that this medicated focus can make it hard to divert our attention when in the moment.

Outside stimuli like other humans (lol) are great natural attention diverters! So if your stuck, find a fellow human to talk to.

*medications will vary. I take stimulants.

You can replace [ACTIVITY YOU ENJOY] with [SCROLLING] but watch out. This sucks bad 👍

[nat-20s]

Some things about this post since getting quite a few notes:

1. If you see this post, highly recommend taking it as an opportunity to set a timer for 15 minutes and switch over to ACTIVITY YOU ENJOY. if after those 15 minutes, you want to go back to scrolling, that's okay!

2. Huge shout out to this popping up in my notifs often, bc I do go back to activity.

3. I think there are times where scrolling is fine. Right now, for example, I'm being connected to a machine for two hours to donate plasma and platelets. Yes this is a brag but it is also a time where scrolling is one of the few things I can do. (Though I will probably also read or watch something on phone lol)

Gotta compliment him on his reflexes. No hesitation. Just described exactly what he was seeing, regardless of what it was.

[VD: A weatherman is giving a report and pointing to a map, saying "feel like temperatures really take a tumble too, because after the storm-" before he is interrupted by the screen going black and then displaying a picture of some baby spinach. He says, "um," then immediately points to the screen and confidently announces, "this is baby spinach." /End VD]

so cool how advanced the algorithm has become, it literally only takes like a decade or more of spying on all my internet activity and then it can expertly curate a selection of 15-20 youtube videos that i don't really want to watch, and then keep showing me those videos over and over again for a week so i can scroll past them again. the future is now

"You hear that? They're saying The Odyssey doesn't even have nobody!"

"They've got nobody in the Odyssey?"

"No I'm saying they don't got nobody."

"Nobody's there?"

"Nobody's not there!"

"So everyone's there?"

"Everybody but nobody!"

My one boring tip to anyone in their 20s is to resist the temptation to rot in your room every time you get a free moment. Dismiss any neuroses you have about going outside and "being perceived". Be a dictator about it, plan your hangouts like they are binding commitments. No excuses! Go to the bar with your friends. Be kinda hungover at work. Socializing is like exercise; even if you don't feel like you want to, you should still do it because it's good for you.
