  • They want to track you, and if you don't let them (VPN, 3rd party client, VM, etc) then they pull this shit.

    • What is an ADHD hack to sit in a meeting for a whole week?

  • Nah these are specifically meant for music, I have a pair of Shockz but there are cheaper options as well.

  • I'd say so. Having some ambient or instrumental music to occupy my mind a bit makes things less overwhelming. But its not going to block out an airplane or anything.

    You can always use them with earplugs, though.

  • Bone conduction headphones, music of your choice. Only you can hear the music, and you can still hear everyone else around you as your ears aren't covered.

    • I mean we're mostly used to it at this point but damn

    • Looking for a Safe, Super Open Source (and also cheap if not free) Journaling app. Any Recomendations?

  • Was going to say Obsidian, but upon verifying, realized that it's not actually open source. Interesting.

    • I want these walls back

    Not a particularly interesting one, but still.

  • Yep - are you apologizing for them, or for yourself?

    • How good are amphetamines for brain fog?

    Jump

  • This sounds like a sleeping disorder, imo.

    And no, ADHD medications do not make you immune to brain fog. In some situations they can make it worse, especially when they wear off.

    Ask your friend if they've been checked for sleep apnea.

  • I appreciate where you're coming from, but understand this is a very personal issue for me. I've been dealing with it for the majority of my life.

    I'm not going to challenge the specific merits of food delivery. But everyone deals with their disorder in their own way. For example, I solve this issue by simply living next to a grocery store in a walkable area. It's something I've worked towards over time.

    What infuriates me is someone trying to code something as "ADHD-adjacent" - and in this case, pass it off as though exploitative gig service delivery apps are some kind of accessibility measure. We are particularly susceptible to the weapons of the information age, which has engineered easy dopamine hits within the reach of our fingers at all times. They are NOT there to make our lives better. They are there to exploit, profit, and manipulate.

  • Believe me, I'm very familiar with the concept. I simply despise the idea of someone categorizing food delivery apps as an ADHD-specific service.

  • Never used a delivery app in my life. This person is just using ADHD as an umbrella term for "impulsive decisions", which is an inherently shitty thing to do.

  • Literally nothing.

    Shitty people will associate ANY impulsive decision with ADHD because they get all their mental health information from short-form content.
