Cant consintrate on my homework...been fighting with my adhd and depression all day

I understand it's difficult under circumstances but just try your best to focus. From one-soon-to-be mom, to another. 🤝

Give yourself a quick break. Make a list, gather everything you need. Get some water. Start over in 15 minutes. Do something to get your mind right 🤗

@bayou_donna its mostly because i have random depression moments, and my adhd is like under control like 90% of the time, but then i have those random times where it gets really bad and i cant focus on anything. The fidget helps some when i get that way but not enough.

@liv.ola i try. Lists annoy me though. However, ive found i usually just have to wait it out even when its interfearing with stuff.

Meditating should work

@evanasmama if adhd allowed me to lol

Maybe a walk can help you ease your mind :)

@evanasmama lol yea if it wasnt raining and well now its dark compared to when i made this posted lol.

Just need to find what makes you occupied.

I had severe depression and what relaxed me was making bead key chains and bracelets. It helped ease my mind.

@evanasmama ive been diagnosed with moderate depression. I dont take pills for it, bc most of the time im in pretty good control over it. Then other days like today it just hits me. The problem when it does that is that i dont want to do anything at all. I just want to lay there and do nothing.

I know I can relate but keeping you busy can also help you relax and cause less stress.
