I am posting this from Lemmy World. Discuss Online is causing Jerboa to crash when I open it. Opening to a different instance resolves the issue.

ADD Diagnosis (self.neurodivergent)
submitted 1 year ago by lazyguru to c/neurodivergent
 
 

I got my ADD diagnosis today (no "h" as I don't meet the criteria for hyperactivity). It felt validating to hear a doctor say what I've felt for a while now.

Has anyone tried meditation? (self.neurodivergent)
submitted 1 year ago by YaketySax to c/neurodivergent
 
 

Hi all, I was wondering who here's tried meditation - have you?

If so, did it help? What kind of meditation did you do? How long till you noticed the benefit (if any)?

If not, had you heard of it being used as a behavioural intervention? Would you try it?

I'd tried it before (before I realised I (probably) have ADHD), but didn't stick with it long enough for the results to show. I mean to start it again, but... well, you know the rest.

I have these really low points where I cannot do anything, no matter how hard I try. For example, I have a bunch of notifications on Lemmy that I've not responded to. No reason other than that I cannot do it.

For things like mod reports, I act quickly. But the other stuff has been difficult for a couple of days.

What do you do to get motivated or get that drive back? "Just do it" doesn't work for me.

If I need to concentrate, I must have music or a conversation in the background on TV or something. Does anyone else need something else pulling for their attention when they're concentrating? My mind will quickly wonder if I don't have music.

I may be moving on to the TOVA, which would sort out my symptoms and distinguish what is or is not ASD. People have told me for a long time that I may be on the spectrum somewhere but I didn't have any documentation proving so. Now I am 27 and finally deciding to get assessed to possibly explain why I have made the life decisions that I have made. I know that I have depression and anxiety, but this test may also separate symptoms from that for a more accurate diagnosis.
