Time Blindness #shorts #adhd

[shary]

This is looped so well it really captures how hellish the cycle is

[aleksandaratanasovic]

It's all fun and games until you're 2 hours early.

The little 'again' absolutely killed me, that is me EVERYDAY and I feel terrible!!

[Conicee]

This is exactly why I set alarms on my phone for EVERYTHING and why I always plan to leave 30min to 1hr before I need to.

[RCola]

lol, luckily my mother conditioned me to be super paranoid of the time. If I need to be somewhere, I am checking the time constantly. One of the few symptoms of ADHD that doesn't affect me horrendously 😂!

[kikiknutson-ho]

The issue is I know exactly what time it is and exactly what time I need to do something yet I still don’t do it lol

One thing that has really helped me with time blindness is setting a timer for every 10-20 minutes, depending on how well I can focus and what I am doing. When the timer goes off, I can count how many times the timer has gone off to stay aware of time. It also helps me track how productive I am at that time by allowing me to look at how much I did in the past 10-20 minutes as compared to the 10-20 minutes before then and figure out if I have less, more, or the same amounts of work done as the previous interval

Yes my three clocks, Alexa, two phones, loud google calendar and two calendar assistant apps feel this so hard.

Everyone know that "time management" is a sentence that one puts on a cv" begins and ends there!

When you show up for your appointment on time, but it's the wrong day. Or the wrong clinic. I've had both happen more than once.

[Mrwatson]

I definitely did not notice the loop. Took me at least 6 loops

[dandyspacedandy]

time moving slow is such a fucking nightmare for me, i experience it so frequently until i find something to fixate on, and then suddenly THATS when my important events and errands show up for me to forget

[Zehra-qeit]

Today I literally missed the bus that I had waited for 30 minutes just by walking around randomly and not checking time (like I have ability to get time😒)

[kevinwillems]

The way I perceive time is word, because I have adhd, but I'm also a drummer.
So minutes and hours are imperceptible, but I can very easily sense seconds and milliseconds in that context.

[basketcase]

I didn’t know how bad my time blindness was until a couple of years ago, when I found out that apparently everyone else knew how long things took without having to check clocks. I have essentially zero idea (or at least reliable idea) of how long things take unless I’m constantly checking the time or using a timer or stopwatch.

[whosonfirst]

I just tripped across one of your shorts and fell right in. Thank you, I thought it was me.

[karacoconutag]

Lol before I got diagnosed, my parents vehemently believed that I was constantly running late/ making them late on purpose for attention. Why would I want the stress of upsetting other people for making them late? 😅💀

[gamenut]

eeyup. I woke up at 8 am 3 hours ago, blinked and now it's 5:21 pm.

[MaladyKayjo]

Time blindness seems like an accurate description of ADHD

[justaname]

I feel this but now I'm paranoid and hype up hours before the event only to be late
