Any audiobooks to recommend for help navigating ADHD? Specifically would love help tackling procrastination and analysis paralysis. Need to pull my inner go-getter out from hiding.

I recommend avoiding the self-help publishing space, it's filled to the brim with grifters - and most people aren't very effective at bootstrapping themselves out of executive functioning disorders with impersonal suggestions. Opt for an experienced counselor/therapist if you can.

Oh, would love a recommendation if you (or anybody else) has one.

Analysis paralysis and being busy for busy sake are such bad habits of mine. I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and still deal with it. Anyone who knows me on a very personal level sees it.

I’ve kinda just accepted it for it is and force myself to step away from certain habits when I notice them taking over. If I don’t, I’ll run myself into the ground mentally and notice hours just lost.

By force, I mean literally say “fuck it” and go for a walk, work out, get some human interaction, etc.

OP I haven't found a good audiobook yet but that partially because with my ADHD I really can't do audio books or podcasts. My mind starts wandering and then I have to go back and rewind only to do it all over again. I have these same problems though and therapy has helped me to find routines and structures that work well for me. Its all about routine.

Maybe you are working on small problems you don’t care about? I liked ‘Art of Impossible’ and ‘Essentialism’ to reframe things.

I'm an RN of 7 years, experience as a coordinator, on committees and do all the things. But now I just don't want to go to work anymore. I have anxiety every morning over nothing, just having to go perform my job. I could do my job in my sleep so I'm just lost and confused. My body is clearly sending me messages to leave. But where do I go? I think I need to step out of patient care.

Any WFM nurses out there? Better work-life balance??
