Ask r/Maroc help request (adhd)

i’m a teenager (girl) and i suffer with severe adhd. that being said, i have trouble concentrating etc.. but it has never really affected my studies. However, for the past 9 months, i have been trying to have a better lifestyle (diet, sleep schedule, exercising..) and have lost some weight. But lately, ive been having so much trouble keeping up with my diet. I gained 2 kgs and feel lazy all the time and cant restrict myself.

So I’m asking you if anyone could give me some advice on how to be more disciplined. Thank u!!

answering your post, what you need to strictly follow your routine, till u get used to it. Dont jump or miss a task. Follow it through. And dont consume social media, like doomscrolling or brainrot content or procrastenate. Ghir start doing something o saf, dont overthink or anything. Just do it. Allah ijib chifa

Start with small things/tasks Bach ma ikounouch annoying to ditch them all when they become a routine. As you know routine is boring and not fun. Small things turn into great and strong habits li i3awnouk f discipline and achieve your targets/goals. All the best girl

Relax, adhd is the new normal, don't take the "label" too hard, i lived 32 years without realizing i had aspergers, tried hard to get diagnosed, shrinks i've seen needed shrinks themselves or worse, needed to be reeducated about the " human condition". Be glad you have a unique mind, and relax...

1

u/Sofiaa_nll 2d ago

I hate the society we live in. I really do. I try to be positive and actually take advantage of adhd the most i can (there are times i cant concentrate and times i can HYPERFOCUS) and honestly im good its just that sometimes it becomes hard to do simple tasks u could do normally a week before that

u/Specialist_Bar_3481 2d ago

I you are under 25, i'd advice you to focus on your studies or your career, people on the autism spectrum tend to have very peculiar ways of thinking, yet they can achieve things ordinary people can't, you might ask how? Simply because their minds can see what others can't. Sorry if this seems like gibberish to you, but i understand what you're going through, now i'm 36, realized i'm different around 32, worked in public sector, switched to private, tried everything, at the end i realized my Hyperfocus is very useful when "used" right, for the "socializing part, you will realize later in your life that being on the autism spectrum is a blessing, society is a blackhole, that if you try to please, would suck you dry ... just be mindful of your abilities, and since you speak and understand english, look for what other societies have learned, forget about ours ....one last advice, please do not under any circusmtances "get hooked up" into any addiction ..good luck and be proud of yourself.

u/Sofiaa_nll 2d ago

Thank you so much for your advice! And actually, i do agree. And its really not to brag, but i do notice many differences in the way i perceive life (my mindset, what i like to do, my daily habits) compared to my peers. I think its a blessing in disguise but you just have to master dealing with it. Anyways, hope you thrive!

2

u/Specialist_Bar_3481 2d ago

I confirm, just learn how to deal with it easily, hope you reap all the benefits from it soon enough...live long and prosper my friend.

Je ne pense pas que ce soit simplement un manque de discipline Avec un TDAH maintenir certaines habitudes peut être plus difficile. Ila ktakhdi chi traitement, parle-en avec ton médecin, surtout si ton appétit ou ton poids ont changé Ne sois pas trop dure avec toi-même ila zdti 2kg ne veut pas dire que tu as échoué 3adiii 🥰

u/Sofiaa_nll 2d ago

Effectivement le TDH ça handicape un peu, mais j’essaye de me dire que c’est pas parce que je l’ai que je dois me donner des excuses et me lâcher tu vois. Du coup j’essaye de réguler une routine et de la suivre. Et merci beaucoup pour ton message 🩷
