I talked to someone at Nature about how I manage my ADHD and autism.

This article is great. Some excellent tips in here from others, too.

#ADHD

My dad, who is constantly bored, is a talented home improvement hobbyist craftsman. Can fix up pretty much anything. He has #ADHD, keeps asking me to remind him to do stuff, he keeps not doing it, months pass.

I've now set up a cron job that calls a homemade Python script (that I'd update over SFTP) to put one task in front of him at all times on his #GNOME computer, using this #GNOMEShell extension:
extensions.gnome.org/extension…

I don't know whether that makes me a chaotic good or lawful evil son.

I'm now confident enough to show off my new app Chimeful 😏
Create "Chimes" that regularly remind you to take a short break, refocus on your current task or anything else that needs reminding. Chimes have individually adjustable scheduling rules.
It was especially designed for people with #ADHD who tend to get lost in thought and need to be brought back to the present moment.

#ADHD folks & #minimalism fans with overflowing #email inboxes (or some #GNOME devs with too many mailing lists & bug tracker emails) might be pleased to discover that @EvolutionGnome has a secret gsetting (that you can toggle in dconf-editor) to disable unread mail counts for folders in the sidebar: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evoluti…

Because what's the point of knowing you have 787 unread emails instead of 785, anyway?

Wish I had per-folder notifications to go with that: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evoluti…

This is the best explanation of hyperfocus in #ADHD I have ever seen. Someone give this guy a medal. And Oscar. Something.

Here's my advice on how to design your course to be more ADHD-friendly. Many of these tips will help students regardless of #ADHD diagnosis: scaffolding large projects and being abundantly consistent about instructions.

For years, we used to explain to folks that we experienced a phonological delay in processing speech or sounds, and that it was likely linked to us being autistic.

We only later worked out that we're actually AuDHD (inattentive ADHD and autistic) and that there's an actual medical term for this: auditory processing disorder.

If you're some flavour of neurospicy, you might have it too without realising. Common signs and symptoms include:

• speaking louder or softer than is situationally appropriate;
• difficulty remembering lists or sequences;
• needing words or sentences to be repeated;
• impaired ability to memorize information learned by listening;
• interpreting words too literally;
• needing assistance to hear clearly in noisy environments;
• relying on accommodation and modification strategies;
• finding or requesting a quiet work space away from others;
• requesting written material when attending oral presentations; and
• asking for directions to be given one step at a time.

It heavily overlaps with ADHD and autism ​ ​

Hope this is helpful to someone ​

I am doing a survey about yoga and neurodivergent folk and your boosts would be appreciated.

If you are neurodivergent (self-realized or Dx'd, it's all good here), and fall under the vast ND umbrella, I'd love to hear from you. Quick 6-7 question survey and you can remain anon if you want.

Thank you!

ND Yoga Survey

This is a quick 6-7 question survey where I ask neurodivergent individuals their thoughts about yoga in general. Information will be kept private and all answers can remain anonymous.

I'm #ActuallyAutistic and I know food preparation is difficult for many folks in the community.

But learning to feed yourself is a skill that has cascading effects (I get severely depressed if I don't feed myself food I like). Not to mention, not everyone has the $$ for takeout

I've been sending this 'sad bastards cookbook' to everyone archive.org/details/sad-bastar…

It focuses on 'boil water and eat' and 'ingredients that don't go bad'

Apparently I got reported today for using the #Alt4me tag and not being blind. I was told by multiple people on Mastodon that if I didn't have the energy to do alt text for every image I could use this tag and someone would do it for me.

Instead I got reported to my instance owner. You all need to make up your fucking minds what is acceptable and what isn't if you want people to stay on mastodon. As it stands, I don't feel comfortable posting images anymore because if I don't have the energy to write alt text then I get shamed, if I used #Alt4Me I get reported

You people make it so tiring that for someone like me with ADHD and Executive Dysfunction it is much easier to just not use Mastodon to post any images!!!!

I'd also like to touch on how people always shame others with "invisible" illnesses. I cannot escape it. Just because I am sighted does not mean I am not disabled in some ways. But people can't see ADHD and executive dysfunction, so I just get their personal diagnosis of 'LAZY'.

I can tell why artists aren't flocking here in droves.

I don't know what I am going to do going forward but I feel pretty fucking uncomfortable posting any images to Mastodon now lest I be shamed or reported or fediblocked because someone didn't like whatever about my posts.

Thanks for that.

Boosts highly encouraged I think everyone should see this.

As usual, ADHD Alien is spot on.
Love how this one is a real explanation on why and how it really works (or not) and not just relatable stuff.

I'm a software developer in the AEC industry, typically working to automate engineering workflows in CAD software (revit etc.). I studied Mathematics, so naturally I love functional programming (and luckily get to use F# for most of my work!).

In my free time I enjoy walking, photography, custom keyboards, and any other hobbies my ADHD brain latches onto.

Hi, my name is Dan and I use They/He pronouns.

By day I'm a Platform Security Engineer, with a focus on container & cloud security, tooling and automation.

The rest of the time, I enjoy playing and (more often) GMing #DnD 5e, #photography (generally wildlife and landscape), good #coffee, cooking and #gardening. I'd love to learn machining, blacksmithing and welding.

I'm very politically left, occasionally post about #ADHD & other #mentalhealth stuff.

Nice to meet you! #introduction
