What the others said, if possible, go see a doctor. I have depression but I’m subscribed to this channel because it’s interesting for me to learn about symptoms and ideas how others deal or cope with them. ADHD and depression share many similarities. ( I will definitively try to learn from the mentioned book tiny habits) I went to a doctor when I felt really really bad. But it was one of the best decisions I have ever made, because I got a treatment and can even go to a therapy. And if you shouldn’t suffer from ADHD or depression - even better!

Wow, super insightful, thanks a lot!

I have to deal with depression at the moment. I am unhappy with some circumstances in my life. Since unemployment could happen soon, it would be beneficial, if I would apply for some jobs. I even asked some friends if they knew about vacancies. But for some reason I just can’t do it. It is enormously frustrating. But reading about symptoms here and realising it actually is a symptom helps me with self compassion.

yep, can confirm

It’s also very funny, when someone shares the idea of a 4-day work week (while the wages stay the same as before during a 5-day work week) many are like “that is not possible, how should it be possible to compensate that?” And nobody ever says that about unpaid overtime. Which is a unbelievable high sum each year!

I agree, if it works for you - good for you! Also, thank you for sharing, nevertheless it is interesting to read about different approaches.

Thank you very much, y’all! I don’t have ADHD, I “only” suffer from depression… I sometimes have a look in ADHD-posts though, as I read some symptoms can be similar and I actually can see myself in many posts. This is very helpful for me. First, because I can see there are others who understand the struggle but also getting hints how to reframe the situation or how to challenge a certain kind of mindset. The last days were hard for me, couldn’t get anything done and didn’t know why… So, once again, this helps to understand myself and have some self compassion.
