@blogdiva@mastodon.social I have used it for two years now at work, and it has allowed me to take pretty consistent and rambling daily work journal entries… that are riddled with tags and notes and snippets that I can pull up at a moment’s glance! It has been a fucking lifesaver for me. Not only do I have ADHD, but I have #epilepsy and migraines and it can really fuck with my memory; I’d had periods in the past where I know I did a lot of work and yet couldn’t tell you a single thing about what I had done a few months back.

Now I just pop open a daily window, write whatever the hell I want, make like a billion tags as I write, and boom.

#ADHD isn't just an inability to pay attention.

It's also:
* Inability to STOP focusing
* Rejection sensitivity
* Working memory
* Time blindness
* Sleep rhythm differences
* Impulsiveness
* Potential anxiety issues
* Prioritization challenges
* Processing differences (verbal> digital)
* Sensory issues
* Comorbidities (eg #autism / #epilepsy)
* Libido differences
* Procrastination

...and many others. And then add that each person has a different mix of all of them!

"This research helps explain how the brain's brakes work—how neurons slow down or stop firing," said lead study author Jia Zhou, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, San Diego. "By understanding this process, scientists can create better treatments for conditions like epilepsy, anxiety and insomnia, ultimately improving the lives of millions of people."

Today, there is no support for "events", be a one off "Steve broke a finger while cycling" or something he does want to track for the next time he actually get to have a conversation with a doctor. For the latter, I have had to create two mock medicines in the medications section and log that on my phone or watch whenever I get a little #epilepsy focal point seizure -one for waking, one for when I'm woken from my sleep . Which is how I can show it's been quite busy this week in waking hours.
Clearly, whatever medical conditions Apple staff have – they aren't the same as mine.

Continued thread

Walking into the elevator, I saw a woman was going to my same floor. I asked her if she was going to the #epilepsy support group. She was, we assured each other that we knew where the room was, and then we immediately got lost!
Simultaneously, we said, “Sorry, I get so confused!”
🤣🤣🤣

Her name is Jeanie, and she is an older woman. She seems cool. She was wearing hiking clothes and she looks like she really hikes.

We found the room, and there was Dawn, the lady from the previous group who was so adamnt about me needing a monitoring device. I was happy to see her. She is also older, and she said her next door neighbor in the senior village she lives in asked her out on a date to lunch! She and Jeanie have been attending this group for a while , so they’re old friends.

Then a tug on my arm; it was Tasha, co-ordinator for the neurology clinic and founder of the group.
She introduced me to a young woman named Jordan, who is #ActuallyAutistic and epileptic. She has some other challenges, but I urged her to join @actuallyautistic , so maybe she will, and she can tell you herself, if she wants to.

Instead of decorating cookies, we talked the whole time, and other people were gradually drawn into our conversation- including Dawn, and some other people who were new to the group… and to epilepsy.

They all said they felt like I did; they don’t want to decorate cookies and do “activities” (I know they had the best intentions, and some people enjoyed it), we want to talk to each other and learn. So we’re all going to meet somewhere quieter where we can really hear each other in January.

I’m glad I went. I learned a lot from Jordan, and we’ve been texting. She says #Mastodon is the best platform for accessibility, so maybe we’ll see her here! I know you will all make her feel welcome!
