I take some ritalin to help me get going, and then once ive gotten into it i get hyperfocused for a while. I dont know how i would be able to do it unmedicated tbh. But the times where i dont get into that hyperfocused space i struggle with it and i have to do it in short spurts with lots of breaks like every 10 minutes. I also need like a list with very clear instructions like a guideline on what i need to do like “this needs to be first, after that u need to do this, then u do this” etc cuz structure is like a foreign concept to my brain so i need some extra help with that. I just ask the teacher to write down a list/guide on how to structure it and they always happily do that and offer me extra tips and little follow ups during the process.

like my biggest advice is to just ask the teacher for the extra help needed even tho i know a lot of us adhd bitches hate to ask for help, its honestly a life saver. The teacher cant refuse it anyways cuz its within our medical rights to get extra help
i have considered whether i should look into medication or not, but i dont know a lot about it tbh. i dont think i can ask for help in this case because it's an exam and the teacher is the examinator, so they aren't allowed to help i think :/ but i def should get better at asking for help just in general... my study group always offers help and im like "thank youuu so nice of u " and then i never ask for help lmao

thats how i did everything in school up until i started uni. with uni it's impossible to do because the assignments are longer and harder and i need to actually break it down into little pieces and get work done every day in order to write it on time :s like this exam is 10 pages of the hardest stuff i have ever tried to wrap my mind around, like the author of the paper im analyzing cant write one simple sentence, it's all fluffy and wack and there is no conclusion, so im just supposed to understand all of that and then... simplify it?!?!?!?! which he couldnt do himself

anyway yeah i cant do the procrastination and panic method, it doesnt do the job anymore

used to go on meditation now i just???? dont do anything, i cant read cus i get distracted and start doing something else and honestly i have no tips for this other than taking help from others, like just being with someone that tells me to take it seriously is the best help i can get 

like my bf will either help me write or make me write but help me also doing it with me makes me more still

yes true true, hardest part is starting... staring out the window is actually a good idea, it's what i used to do when i did exams in school when i was younger, it works. there's enough distractions outside with birds and stuff but not too many distractions so i forget to get back to work again. i found some nice soothing jazz music that helps as well, which is cool bc normally music just fucks my brain up even worse

sad im at my mums now tho bc then my bf only helps 1-2 hours a day (understandable though) so im a bit reliant on our short calls (short compared to the amount of hours i have to get work done in)

OH WAIT I MIGHT KNOW SOMETHING but it depends on if u have a nicotine addiction and where you live cus 
everytime i have taken a snus (without tobacco) i get really calm and collected and i said once that if i ever start studying im gonna start snusa, but ig it doesn’t have the same effect if ur already nicotine addicted.

my brother just got diagnosed with adhd, and its very visible that he has it

as of me i just struggle with focusing, but am a very calm person otherwise
today for example i planned on writing on 2 of my essays, but i have not started yet bc i just find other stuff to do all the time, and i kind of forget where i was with the essays... i had a energy drink and now im a little bit more focused tho which is weird
