Meditation is awesome!
Which is true, but I have yet to meet anyone with ADHD that could learn how to do it fast enough to learn how to do it.
It’s possible! Lots and lots of practice, but it’s absolutely doable. I recommend progressive muscle relaxation, since it gives you something to focus on more than just “let your mind go blank.”
I haaaaaate progressive muscle relaxation. They made us do it in school when I was little and I have a mental block about it. I've had success with guided meditations on an app called insight timer. I've also had success with the worry box technique. If I decide I'm not going to deal with something till another time it goes into the worry box.
