Being overwhelmed seems to be just a normal part of life now. This is my journey trying to alleviate the stress on my mind.
Figured out how to disable copilot in visual studio. It’s so peaceful now

Maybe I should learn openGL Graphics in C++.
I wrote a console application in college a couple years ago so this should be easy, right?
Right??

7hrs sleep
6hrs work
2hrs chores
1hr cooking
1hr eating
7hrs staring at a wall forgetting I exist

Any time management tips? I think if I drink more coffee I can get by on 6 hours of sleep…

Okay, well, as expected, I kinda forgot about this account. On the bright side, my Minecraft house is looking great. Joys of ADHD

I’m sure those companies getting tricked by death stranding photo mode can be trusted with your likeness or your government ID. This totally won’t backfire

My memory is awful (So sorry if I forget to post here).

I just watched an Answers in Progress video (i memorized 3,141 digits of pi to prove a point) and hope to implement some of those techniques. I've tried in the past but I've never committed to it.

I gotta say, one of the most frustrating things about ADHD and low motivation and wanting to do more, is the number of people out there desperate to take advantage of that. I want to get better at things but the amount of scams out there is insane

Decision fatigue

No matter how small a decision you make, it contributes to decision fatigue, reducing your ability to make good decisions later. I think of it as resetting after sleep but I know this is an oversimplification. Day to day, I try to remove as many decisions as possible.

I am very easily overwhelmed. Financial instability? Emotional moments? Weekend taken over by something I don't like? Overwhelmed.

I dislike this.

There is a lot of advice online, some scams, some engagement bait and some real, so I want to figure out what work's and what doesn't.

For me at least
