This is a very useful video, ive learned most of these things through experience but its such a great tool for anyone who might be struggling and doesn't know these tips yet. Also the resources provided make it a really good all in one guide. Thanks a lot, you deserve a lot more views and subs.
If there's one thing I learned from my CBT therapy sessions, it is that whenever I have some judgment about myself going in my head, I'd ask myself if I would make those same statements about my friends. If not, then that's definitely not something "useful" to me and I just disregard them. We should be good friends to ourselves before we are able to others. The replacement statements principles were not verbalized to me, but they make total sense. Thank you very much for sharing.
I do literally the exact same thing but in the exact opposite direction. "Would you let your friend take a gaming break after only doing 15 minutes of work or would you tell him that's ridiculous? That's what I thought."
This was a very helpful video. I am not the biggest fan of google so I would want a separate calendar/task list alternative, but I might try google. I would also like an integrated "notes" section. I actually like the colors of different apps on my phone and I think it would be counter-productive for me to make all black and white, but I am going to try your recommendation to see. I can always switch back. I have a need to backup and keep and would be worried about access, etc. to calendar, notes, if I didn't have some kind of backup system. I am not sure if google has that. Your distraction log is just what I need to collect random thoughts. And having a place to keep all things is also fabulous. Setting up today. I was wondering about some kind of rewards system for staying on task? Any thoughts? Should I not be thinking about that but just visualizing where I want to be? I think it is key to be a minimalist not just on the phone but in life. I have to get rid of "piles" around my home and keep them away! I am new to your channel and haven't explored much... just the 10 tools videos. I hope you have some advice on relationships as well.
"Don't delay" might be like, the concrete foundation required by the building codes underneath Maslow's pyramid of needs. Writing/entering it is a lot of this. But if I have a headache and am preparing a lunch, I'll get the plate out and put the naproxen pill on the plate before I sit for luncheon. Best to have it after luncheon on account of the sake of the bowels (they LOVE COX), but even the headache itself won't remember me after. So the pill goes on the plate before I sit for luncheon. If I think of it then.
COX inhibition can degrade gastric mucosa. My understanding is this effect is partially systemic, but administration of NSAIDs with food is at least popularly held to mitigate. I do know, if I take it on an empty stomach, or dry swallow, it feels like my esophagus and stomach are about to go supernova. But if I say, "I'll get the pill after eating," I'll probably forget. So it goes on the plate. I'm prescribed triptans which are beloved by the gastric mucosa but I fear rebound headaches. Really it just comes down to process optimization. Making lunch is a "procedure," while being done with lunch isn't in the same way. So just sort of correlating tasks logically is, as much as anything, a mnemonic, one of many, oftentimes, to help get them done. Because just having a throbbing head isn't enough apparently.

Ah yes I follow now. Thanks for clarifying. It’s hardly relevant but my brain linked it to this: thelastpsychiatrist.com/2009/05/how_to_lose_weight.html
@@PsychoFarmyeah creating barriers for yourself is an undersung method generally. I find fake ones of equivocal help, but doing something actually productive that limits downstream defection by making it more costly is always a winner. Just on eating, I've both road cycle raced and powerlifted, and so I've intentionally been both 160 # and 210 #. But in adult life, I DO snack illicitly. So one example is meal prep to take to work. Bring what you'll eat, eat what you bring, and nothing else. It forces sensibility, since a 250 kcal lunch and a 1,500 kcal lunch are both excessive, and makes compliance easy. And routine compliance makes defection tolerable, i.e., friends want to eat at Denny's or something. Everybody wins. It's normal I think to view that as punitive to the self, but it's not. There is freedom in (healthy) discipline, and we ADHD boys just built different.
Thank you for the support you have provided to both my patients and me. I share your videos often.

Excellent way of framing it. Really helpful for gaining perspective on how harsh our internal monologues can be.

Love it. Not sure I follow the naproxen though.
