Agreed. But I guess it just means a hyperfixation has been unlocked for me.

I’ve gone radio silence except for setting up my little spaces on the Fediverse >:3 My husband thinks I’ve been very understanding of his hobbies, and internally I’m* completely oblivious

the spark to learn more about this place has been the most motivation ive had in months, it's been somewhat refreshing. definitely an overwhelming amount of information to navigate tho, id say im struggling too.

I relate hard to this!

I always have trouble with sleep. I feel like I have a routine and BOOM a week later I’m staying up until 3 a.m. This drives me crazy. My ADHD ass can’t hold on to self-imposed routines for very long.

Edited to add: after reading (ok, skimming - It’s long!) the article, maybe I’ll have to try using my SAD therapy lamp year-round to get my sleep rhythms a bit more regulated.

Looks very nice! I'll be glad to try it out. How are the Alpha builds so far?

    @avuko @kepic I drink chamomile green tea before bed.

    From someone that's had sleeping problems for years.

    It's hard I know because our autistic brains won't switch off.

    I'm not saying it'll work for you, but maybe worth giving it a go.

    It's helped me.

    duringoverflow,

    I drink chamomile green tea before bed.

    green tea is different than chamomile. Green tea actually contains caffeine. I suppose you do take chamomile but I needed to clarify it in case someone goes try green tea without looking it up more.

    There was a lot in there that was new to me, too. The greatest surprise was the connection with sight; I'm overly sensitive to bright light, and have trouble with blue light (nighttime neon signs are horrible). There was a lot I recognized in myself in this.

    @kepic Thank you, @kepic , for the link to https://BrainClinics.com. They have links to a huge number of @Scientific studies on @Sleep, @ADHD, @depression, and various therapies.

    Yeah. It's a new site for me, so I haven't had a proper look yet, but it seems to have pretty good resources.
