Making sure to take breaks while doing work and having a reward system such as a piece of candy or something

I find having a video on like a reddit vid or video essay on while I do tasks helps me complete them. As for sleep excersize and asmr. Coffee gives me a boost for energy as do naps

Definitely keep a schedule and a to do list. And find something to keep your brain engaged during class. Sometimes I play Missile Command while the teacher is talking, and it actually helps me stay awake. During church I take notes to help me stay awake.

I am medicated but stimulants don’t solve everything if you don’t have certain systems in place. For example one thing that helps me is if I have tasks to complete I refuse to stay in comfy clothes until everything is completed. As others have referenced I create reward systems for each task I get done. I treat every task like it’s a game instead of “work”. If you are able I highly recommend speaking to a professional about your symptoms!
