  • Things could definitely change but my parents did test me as a kid and it was negative.

    Also every time I take a test online, I always score pretty low mostly because I can force myself to focus too well and also because I lack the procrastination stuff as well. I just have everything else.

    It’s likely just that ADHD is a spectrum and I am not high enough on the spectrum to be formally diagnosed.


  • I greatly reduced how much news I consume per day and it’s done wonders for my mental health.

    I chose 2 sources of news that I trust and then I block news everywhere else in my life. Every morning I read the news from the two sources I picked and that is all the news I will consume for the day.

    If I notice that I am consuming news elsewhere I will block/ignore/hide that source.

    As an example, if I notice a community here post too much news I will just block it. I use Discord, so if one of the servers I’m in has any political or news channels I will mute them, etc etc.

    Doing this, I find that the news I read is more relevant to me because the sources I chose are local news networks. In addition, because I am not getting news from social media, the news I read is much less sensationalized.

    It makes the news that I read boring and I think that is a good thing.
