How Can I learn better with ADHD (Attention Deficit focused)?
I'm a freshman in college taking all STEM classes and 'm currently pursing a degree in engineering (leaning towards electrical). However, I keep finding myself struggling time and time again. It takes me much longer than others to comprehend given information from lectures, and I keep finding myself constantly distracted. I want to be an engineer very badly. This sounds pretty general but I want to help innovate new technology to help people. I don't plan on letting this ADHD stop me, but without the proper help, I'm worried my path is going to be a lot more shakey. Any ideas on how to be a better learner? #Spring25
How were you able to navigate your completely online classes if you struggle with ADHD/Autism?
I am returning to school for the first time since being diagnosed with ADHD and my first semester is all online. I am nervous since I have difficulty managing my time and get easily distracted. What skills/hacks/resources do you use to help get your coursework done on time and manage feeling overwhelmed?
I am 30, a freelance writer, ADHD, with too many interests, confused what to choose. Any help?
I have multiple interests like filmmaking, movies, art/digital art, fiction writing/novel, screenwriting, basically anything related to story and the craft of storytelling in any medium- writing, visual, etc. With that, I am also too driven for pyschology, self-help, sprituality and philosphy stuff. Then some business aspect with blogging or online stuff attracts me too with the same with Youtube. I am fascinated with content creation for a long time. Having diagnosed with adhd, choosing one thing feels painful and like i am leaving a part of my personality behind, missing out. Even though i entertained the fact that i can be all or most or some one by one over time, and not have to choose. you know the specialization vs generalization thing. But struggling with the concept of not being master in one as well. Any help on this, any resource or anything will be great!
