ADHD is making me waste my life!!!


 Turning back time is not possible, right? Okay well I guess I need to give up that dream and live moving forward.  I spent my life not putting effort into anything because my brain is clearly broken, I did not know this until recently. I was diagnosed as an adult with ADHD , yikes. So much time I wasted not living up to what I could be, most of this can be put to ADHD, anxiety and childhood trauma…….more on that in a later blog. 

 

All these things make me hyper aware of time and also not aware of time at all….let me explain. When I’m trying to do all my tasks I can focus on one thing until it is done. Working on this b creating a process guide for each task to help guide me through. But I always think this will only take and hour and then when it takes longer I get upset with myself. But when I am watching shows on aimlessly scrolling on whichever social media app I choose I loose track of time. This realization has allowed me to make changes that I should have made long ago. All this to say I have wasted so much of my life not putting in the effort and still expecting results. 

 

Time to change my mindset and go forward with my knowledge and do things that will benefit my end goals.

Progress

Starting projects can be challenging heres a few tips to get you into them and help you stay on them, yah ready. 1) Think/imagine the end result. 2) Do as much as you can at one time. 3) Take pictures of before, during and after. 4) Bring them out when you needmotivation. 5) Be proud of the milestones. I hope those tips help you and if not heres a quote. " Rome was not built in a day, but it was worked on everyday". Take that how you will and work on any project you have in mind.

Inspirational post #5

Sometimes life gets you down.....and that's okay. Sometimes the people you care about most can let you down. They don't mean to but it happens. No one is perfect and we need to be able to understand where they're coming from and forgive them. Sometimes we need to be able to find something that'll pick us back up. Notice how i said something and not someone. There's a reason....we cant expect another person to pick us up. We can ask for help but its not fair to them to be the only thing to pick you up. Hobbies help get through a lot....keeping focused on something....keeping busy. When ur down you have two options. Stay in your routine and get worse or make a change and improve your life.

Society

Society is always telling us how to look, how to act, how to feel, who we are, who we aren't, what to think and who we should like. Its 2016 and society is still not accepting of all people. Schools still have bullies, we hate people for materialistic reasons. We cant accept people who are different than us. Is being hateful ingrained into us or is it taught. Nuture vs nature. Everyone tells their children how to behave and to be nice to others. However at school they're so exposed to everything and they end up following their friends. I think its time for everyone to take a stand. We could all benefit by being more positive. "The first thought that goes through your mind is what you have been conditioned to think; what you think next defines who you are." Challenge: tell others what you like about, them complement them when you admire some personality trait they have.
