How I survive being a self-studying programmer with ADHD
1. Eliminate distractions
2. Narrow my focus
3. Lean on soundscapes
4. Set timers
5. Stay gentle with myself

@JararMalik There are way too many resources and sifting through them has been its own hell but for now, Google's course has been good to me. Paired that with work on an old project. Always asking myself if this is an optimal way to self-learn, but def getting somewhere!
I left my SWE role at the beginning of this year. It was very sad, but I learned that no job is worth your happiness or health.
This year, my journey has been dedicated to:
1. Taking care of my body and brain
2. Learning product / UX design
3. Community – I've missed you all!
