| Yep, yep. Got that too. The funny part starts when you realise how little maintenance life needs, compared to the available time in a day. If you’re not there yet, prioritise getting there. Next step is to let yourself try out increasing numbers of new things. It's not only about trying out new things, it's about increasing the speed at which you try new things. That helps with learning how to learn faster. New experiences, foods, meeting new people, listening to new music, learning to play/sing new music, smelling new stuff, staying awake at different times of day, walking with different speeds, etc. I basically use my easily distractable mind to experience and learn from most of my lived seconds. I used to have many forgettable days and now less so. I make use of all easily available tools/systems that modern technology created for us. One of the default options is to try medication ([1]). That's ok, but try to delay it until you're ready to understand the effects it has on your mind. I would recommend experiencing with different doses of sugar, cocoa, coffee, alcohol, canabioids, etc. I get a feeling that one needs acquire a taste for paying attention to one's mind. It's a learned ability/skill. I tried concerta and I liked it (one of my friends has diagnosed adhd and I had access to a safe environment for it). Unfortunately it's quite tedious to get it diagnosed. Way too many delays and people to interact to. Fortunately I found good alternatives in the meantime. Let me know if I can help with more :D |
