So I have ADHD. Official diagnosis. My kids have it. Official diagnosis. My mom and sisters clearly have it, but refuse to be tested. If something is sufficiently interesting I can hyper focus like crazy. For decades any level of boredom was physically painful. Remote is the worse for me. Staying on task is a nightmare. What helped? Pair programming. This keeps you engaged and on task. I try and pair as much as possible. Medication. I was on Adderal for awhile. It works great. I had to stop due to serious side effects. (Strokes) However it got me past the mental block of “boring is painful” I function a good better without medication now. It’s not where it needs to be to cope with 8 hours of no human interaction, but better. I tried another non stimulate med. my focus was fine, but I was so sleepy my work was crap. I’m on Vyvanse now. My kids are on Vyanse. It works a lot better. I get some of the same side effects as adderall But not as intense.
