Thanks for this, I definitely have a shared experience here and recognize many of the same technique biases and didn't make the connection to my ADHD. I'm now better armed to engage with others on why I see some of these things differently.
absolutely fantastic talk. As someone that's struggled with ADHD symptoms but has always put off actually going and getting a diagnosis to get medicated/help, I'm always lookin for techniques that help me cope with it just to achieve that sense of normalcy that i see in others. Some/most of these tips ive already stumbled upon myself, like DDD (tough i never knew it was DDD till this talk lol) but theres def still alot to take away. My biggest help has been writing shit down. Even if its scribbles on a notebook, or nonsense on notepad++, like Micheal mentions, context switching can be incredibly hard and it often requires a complete mental pivot to the point where we may completely forget we were even working on a previous task. Our brains have some limited af cache but theyre pretty powerful when it comes to chunking i've noticed, were often the first ones to spot patterns.
Excellent talk. Recently my therapist has suggested (after a year of weekly sessions) that I might have ADD symptoms. Whether I want to proceed with forma diagnosis and/or treatment, so many things you described have resonated with me! I'm still learning to adapt to the "new" world where not everybody can easily see things the way I do. This could not be timed better, this talk might just have saved me months of trying to understand my needs and how they might be mapping to SW engineering habits I've developed over years. (And eternally struggled to convince others to understand and adapt as well, where my failures---as I realize now---might have better explanations than I could come up with.)
Got tinitus, feels accurate 😂 but the intro is bad sir it gets better but the first part isnt really what i learned in clinic i mean could be a bit outdated but this science isnt really progressing in lightspeed. And hypothalamus is what i discussed with thalamus who causes these things, like so a sudden emotion can change everything or vice versa a fact causing weird regulations. Like am bad with explaining it its what i discussed with the chef doc, therapist and the book i was reading (which name i will never remember). Like for me even colors cause these things, like theres a blue where i feel unwell instantly Else though i like this, even though imo there are some generalisations i dont like where one should remember his personal scope, no offense just saying Also one thing one should mention is the worst someone can do is to think "uh i make this easier because i think this will help him" please dont, leave us alone we know ourselfs the whole life compared to you ignorant helpers
