A new day and a new university library. I’m feeling very proud of myself for getting myself here, but now I’m sat down I literally have no idea how I am going to get started on my work or what I’m even trying to do.

What this space to see how my Saturday in the library goes

While not studying #0

Topic: Why Im starting the series?

I'm starting a series of posts where i talk about things i do while not studying, to:

give other students ideas on how to rest;

motivate myself to find new ways to rest.

I have been in a burnout for a really long time, I also just left music school (i might post on why in the future). I never got to LEARN how to rest. Resting is a pretty basic activity, but to us, neurodivergent gifted kid burnout people, it's a lot harder due to anxiety, overstimulation etc. etc..

We have to remamber that: RESTING is a SKILL.

My whole life (well, not whole but most of it) I was waking up at 6am coming home at 8pm, almost no free time, I've fallen into serious depression and im pretty ducking sick od it. I decided that im going to change that, it'll be hard, but I'm determined and believe i can do it!

Follow me if you want to join me on this journey

Bye!!

Recent Realizations - How To Keep My Room Clean With Executive Dysfunction:

(A lot of these probably seem kind of obvious, but they helped me, so I figured maybe they would help someone else.

The dirty laundry does not go on top of the basket, or next to the basket. It gets shoved in, all the way. If not, it will fall out, and cause me stress every time I see it, but not enough stress to fix it.

It doesn't matter how the closet looks, as long as the door stays closed. It must be closed at all times, unless I am actively getting something out of the closet.

Every pillow, blanket, sheet, pillow, pillowcase, stuffed animal, or anything else of the sort goes on the bed. I hate making my bed, and I hate sleeping in a made bed, so I pile everything into a large, comfy pile, and that works really well for me.

Opening my window blinds in the morning must be a task on my daily to-do list, or it will not get done, and I will spend the day in darkness, which is bad for the plants on my desk. So, I have "open the blinds" as the first thing on my to-do list.

Listen. I have hyper-empathy. I get emotionally attached to tiny dead plants or weeds that I find on the ground. It happens. Solution? I stick them in the pot of the fake plant on my dresser. I don't know how good an idea this is long-term, but it's worked for me so far.

Speaking of plants. I keep a plastic water bottle on my desk at all times for the purpose of watering my desk plants. Without the combination of that easy access, and my phone reminders, my plants would be dead. When the water bottle is empty, I fill it back up in the sink. Do I always remember to do this? No. Do I remember far more than I would if it wasn't on my desk? Yes.

And that reminds me. My newly discovered golden rule for being somewhat functional: out of sight means out of mind. Granted, sometimes in sight also means out of mind. But being able to see something increases the chances of me thinking about it by 300%. (I made up that number. Just take my word for it.) This means that any work I plan on doing in the foreseeable future needs to be somewhere I can see it.

The dresser drawers should be closed. I hate it when people tell me that. I hate it even more when they have a point. But, it makes the room look neat, and a neat room makes me feel productive, and feeling productive provides the illusion of being productive, and being productive makes the happy chemicals in my brain go off. So, the drawers get closed.

Finally, it literally does not matter how disastrous my desk looks to other people. If the organization makes sense to me, if it makes me feel productive and happy, and if I like working at it, it has succeeded at being a desk. Congratulations, desk.

I was kind of proud of myself for figuring these out, and having a nice-looking room for the first time in a while.

My last exam is tomorrow. Maybe when I'm done once and for all, I can finally put some real study tips of my own here :)

If anyone out there has ideas for posts or tips, please feel free to submit them or suggest them or whatever! If you want to see more motivation and inspiration stuff, lmk that too! I might make even make motivation moodboards?! :] :D

Or if you have a topic you want me to talk about specifically, I can see what I can do! Some I think I can make my own advice for (like OCD, ADHD, or Autism, which are the neurodivergies I have, so I'm most qualified to make posts about those myself)

As for other conditions, maybe I'll reblog more about them or just see what resources I can find.

Otherwise, lmk of any studyblrs, tips, posts you've found useful and maybe I can share them here!

Me? Posting this instead of working? It’s more likely than you think

[ID: a Facebook-style affirmation image, which shows a person happily studying. They are surrounded by a bright pink gradient border, and above and below them is white text reading: I am not overwhelmed by things that should by all accounts be overwhelming. /End ID]

March 13, 2023

2 days until my birthday and I'm honestly trying to ignore it, not for passage of time reasons, but because I really can't afford to get frustrated about working through it without celebrating. Its spring break, aka my chance to catch up a little this semester. I have a litany of tasks and I'm kinda not confident I can do it all. But I had a really great study day! Really productive, really on task, really aware of my needs and able to work with myself. I don't know if its because I stayed home today, I didn't have a migraine, or what, but I feel really accomplished. Its a good feeling. Balanced, like I did "enough", and like I can accept that taking breaks and doing other things is part of that "enough". I'm really pleased with myself. Sure there's more to do, but I'm not floundering.

Random pieces of advice

The world is less scary and chaotic if you lie down on the floor

Noticing different kinds of light (stars, candles, sunshine or city lights) can bring back the feeling of wonder and hope

If you can't shower, washing your hands and face will help you feel better and cleaner

If you can't clean anything else, changing and/or washing your bedsheets can do wonders

Fresh air and being outside in general can help with depersonalisation

Spending time around animals can help you recognise what's important and calm anxious thought cycles

Techniques for emotional regulation in children can really help adults too

Putting random asortment of food on a plate without creating an actual dish still counts as a meal

Drink something warm

Delete that app

Treat yourself as if you were a kid. Buy yourself a toy, play around, learn about cool new things

Fast paced life isn't morally better and it's not good for everyone

There is no good reason to keep yourself hungry

Singing to your full lung capacity can be a great way to let out built up emotion

Tension in the face can cause headaches. Try to massage your face regularly

Nothing is as important as your health

You are a whole person on your own, you don't need someone else to be there to deserve love and attention. Your life can be full as long as you are present

You should cry things out whenever you feel like it

Slow walks are still movement and they do count

It's never as bad as you imagine it

Try changing your toothpaste flavor if you hate brushing your teeth

Anything can be a stim toy - one of my favourites is a heavy dragon necklace that has a complicated surfice. It's fun to touch and hold and it's not even "actual" stim toy

Procrastinating and feeling bad about it is true waste of time. Learn to truly rest. It takes the same amount of time but it is useful

Sometimes you have to force yourself to do the things that make you feel better

Don't trust the thoughts you have after not sleeping for a while

Friendships don't have to be forever to mean something

10th March 2023 - 1/32 Days of Productivity

Long time no see! I got Covid again and it absolutely kicked my arse. Anyway, now I'm back and ready to get on with my dissertation... which is due in 32 days. Hence, 32 days of productivity

(Also check out my wireless keyboard. I bloody love it, it makes typing so much easier!)

I got my results back for my computer practical and research project;

I scored

97%

on both of them, and I’m so happy right now!!

I’m extremely proud of these results not only because they’re good but because I worked my rear off for them and it’s just so amazing to see the results of these efforts-it’s also really motivating.

Again if you’re struggling; tell someone. Please, getting a diagnosis for mental health or neurodevelopmental issues is nothing to be ashamed of and can be truly life-changing.

(This post is related to the study technique that @macgyvermedical mentioned in this post)

Toxicology quiz preparation (part 1)

[disclaimer: i'm not a scientist yet, only a student, and these are notes for school. Don't trust me with serious informations, if you have inhaled/drank/ate/had contact with anything toxic/unsafe please contact a doctor!]

Main terms:

Toxicology - a discipline that studies toxins/poisons, it's impact on living organisms, how to avoid them and how to treat poisonings caused by them. The name stems from greek words toxicos and logos;

Toxin/poison - a substance that in small dose strongly disrupts/is harmful/lethal to living organisms;

Xenobiotic - a chemical compound that is present in the body without being produced by it or absorbed with food. Most toxins and drugs (medicine) are xenobiotics.

Main groups of Xenobiotics are:

-drugs (also called medicine/medicaments/pharmaceiticals), including: antibiotics and chemotherapeutic agents;

-pesticides (name stems from latin words: pestis and caedo);

-pollutants (including: dioxins and polichlorinated biphenyls);

-occupational exposure factors.

Propreties of toxins:

toxcisity - it directly causes disease symptoms;

mutagenicity;

whenever they're cancerogenic (are a cause of cancer);

teratogenicity - it has negative impact on the fetus;

allergenicity- it causes allergies.

I made myself a chewing necklace out of a silicone ring and an empty necklace chain that I had lying around, and it's seriously a game changer? Like, I'm not grinding my teeth anymore, and I can focus a bit better? Also, chewing on it makes me very happy.

Only downside is that my parents think it's disgusting, and have been very vocal about that, saying I'm not allowed to chew on it. So, I'm only using it when they're not around. Also, my little sister had mentioned wanting chewlery before, so I made her one too, but my parents shut that down pretty quick, which made me feel less than great, emotionally speaking.

That aside, I really recommend either buying or making a chew necklace if you tend to have oral stims like I do!

Study tipps that work for me as an autistic ADHDer

(who massively struggled with any school related studying for years)

Finding out when I can focus best. I can't think by daylight. I need it to be dark outside to study. Therefore I study at night. If you can study at the time of the day you can focus best, do that. It doesn't matter if everyone else gets up at 5 am to do their ✨perfect productive morning routine✨. There's no one right time to be productive.

Stimming or moving while studying if I feel like it I can't focus (especially when I have to listen to recorded lectures for hours) when I don't move. I need to sit in my rocking chair and rock back and forth to take in any information at all. Pay attention to if you feel like moving when studying. If you're used to suppressing your stims, try to relearn stimming in a safe space if possible. The better regulated you are, the easier it will be to focus.

Nice distractions. Ali Abdaal once mentioned that he always studied with his door open so friends who passed by would come in for a little chat. You need to take breaks anyway, so think about somethings like that to make them more enjoyable. If you study at home or live alone, text your friends before you start studying, so replies will drift in while you're studying. TL;DR: 1. Study when you can focus best, you don't need to be productive in the morning if you're not a morning person. 2. Listen to your body and move if you need to move to focus. 3. Make your breaks nice, I like chatting with friends in between studying. Feel free to add what works for you : )

If you’re also disabled/mentally ill/neurodivergent/traumatized and taking general psychology classes, especially if you’re the only or one of the only visible outliers in the class and you have to take part in discussions and such, I think we deserve an award and a treat and a nap lol
