Time in the gym has always helped. Avoid treating it with alcohol, drugs, or food though.

I second the Calm app. It’s improved my sleep immensely. I fall asleep faster and stay asleep through the night.

I really love the PsycheTruth stretching videos on YouTube. Quick and varying levels of flexibility, always helps

I use Mindspace and love it

I like to read a good fiction book for 15-30 minutes before bed. Gets my mind off work even in the worst projects. If there is time, the gym is also helpful

I just started meds yesterday and the change in my focus and attention to detail is mind blowing. My only concern is, just yesterday I had a tough feedback session with my manager around how I’m taking too long to complete my work, giving them anxiety around close deadlines. I’m new in the job (3 months in). Should I explain anything about my adhd to my manager or just wait for them to notice the change in me?
