All of my social activities involve quiet rooms and less than 10 people. Although I will say that if the crowd gets big enough then the white noise all the talking creates can be calming. Unfortunately the hundreds of people bumping into you kinda ruins the whole thing.
Rain sounds and/or instrumental music are the only way I can focus when the environment is noisy.
I like to say that I think in really big mutable general concepts, abs only in specifics when solving a puzzle or troubleshooting. Sensations is much closer than words for sure.
My SO hates driving, so I drive us everywhere, they also love conversing. I keep trying to explain why this isn’t compatible… at least now they keep track of where we are more often and let me know when I’m going to miss my turn. I won’t talk and drive without my ADHD meds though, way to dangerous…
I’m right there with you. Going through all of it right now. I have been considering getting an official diagnosis, but I’m 100% sure I’m on the spectrum, so I’m not sure if there is a point.
Yes! It can be very effective for certain things and for certain people. It’s much more useful for those of us with ADHD. It’s helpful for retraining things like imposter syndrome, self- loathing, anxiety, etc.
Personally I have found FasterEFT is more helpful since it’s a quick in the moment fix and can be learned in a few minutes, but it does require self awareness. Meditation helps there and both seem easier and more useful to me.
My go to activities are:
Getting out on nature, running water is a big plus, hiking, kayaking, etc.
Board/party games have improved a ton over the last 20 years. Some simple fun games that take a minute or less to teach: telestrations, just one, banagrams
D&D or other role playing, this is a really easy way to engage in social interaction that is lower pressure (at least for me) and fun.
