I’m curious what other people with ADHD do to get in the zone/right mental space for a workday? I’ll start - I like to work on whatever crafting thing is my current hyper focus (right now it’s embroidery). So every morning after I take my meds and before I log on, I sit outside and craft. What about you all?

I try to save all my fun things for a reward and motivator towards the end of the day. Helps me have something to look forward to.

I really enjoy listening to a meditation and use my morning time to prep any to do lists and try to review what’s needed for the day so I feel like I’m getting in the zone as my meds ramp up.

Has anyone addressed their ADHD with their boss directly? For example, I have a really hard time with long meetings. I can’t sit still and pay attention and I wonder if sharing this with my boss would be helpful or if it would raise red flags. Funny enough, my job is very detail oriented.

Welcome to the ADHD at work bowl. I created this bowl as a way to just share stories, experiences, fears, concerns about working with ADHD. As I climbed the ladder I realize that I'm presented with new challenges with my condition.
