I've never been diagnosed with ADHD but I've been trying to reduce distractions for a long time and the one thing that was extremely effective for me was going to the office and taking a desk in a busy region with my back against interior rather than the windows, this made my monitors visible to everyone. The constant feeling of being judged made it impossible to get distracted and I was extremely productive when I was at the office.
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 4y agoHuh, interesting. Whenever I tried this I just felt anxious and retreated into my phone. I suppose it depends on the type of work though. I could see this working well for the more mindless, grindier tasks, but this seems kind of awful for a task that requires some concentrated thought and creativity.
- elektrontamer 4y agoIt might also be my mind naturally fitting in with the crowd when I see everyone focused on their task. The anxiety is odd though. Do you hate crowds?
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 4y agoI actually love crowds, and work just fine in coffee shops, but don't enjoy the perception of being watched as I work.
