How the fuck do you do homework guys?

im actually fine w/ presentations because im a good public speaker (idk, im horrible at anything social except public speaking) which makes up for lack of work

I'm awful at everything but presentations are alot of pressure which stresses me out alot and makes me procastinate alot that makes me even more stressed and you can't really copy paste your way out of presentations.

$4000 a YEAR

how many classes /credits do you take a semester

I just dual monitor it. Work on one, space out and watch youtube on the other. Even if it takes me awhile, active procrastination is better than passive.

hire a personal drill sergeant

Were you by any chance told your entire childhood that you are >smarter than others, breezed through grade-high school and then suddenly college gave you actually challenging work and because you are not used to actually trying it's impossible to do it?

>only $4000

as a burgerstani this makes me cry

anyways as a shart in mart myself, since I pay so much for uni, even though i vicously hate it, I also hate paying for things. That's how I do homework. It's completely powered by hatred and resentment

i got diagnosed adhd and took ritalin

suddenly all the things that were way harder for me to do than everybody else became easy

how and who would I talk to just see see if I have adhd I suspect I do but I dont want to come off as a drug seeking college kid

I also have ADHD and have trouble concentrating on tasks. I currently take strattera, but I feel as though a higher performance drug, e.g. ritalin like you mentioned, would help. My hesitation is that I'm not sure if taking mind-altering drugs is ethical (yes ik i have a presecription but it barely does shite). What do you think?

i took ritalin for a bit, got instant burnout
epic!

I looked up psychiatrist and set an appointment.

I explained to him my experiences such as homework and simple tasks being extremely difficult to do not because they were mentally challenging but because I couldn't bring myself to do them. I told him that my research has lead me to believe I have adhd based on reading the experiences of others and the dsm v diagnosis criteria.

At first he did want to give me medication but I explained to him that I had tried many other things such as exercising (which does help, especially if you are on medication), meditation, and diet changes, none of which worked. I said that if I felt there was any other way for me to solve this problem I would but at the time I was 22 with no education, no job, and no future because I couldn't focus on anything besides video games.

I told him I had never done any sort of drugs or even drank alcohol so while I do want to try medication I wanted to start with a low dose.

He agreed to prescribe me ritalin.

I take strattera too. Straterra is what I take when I just need to do simple tasks like cleaning my room, showering, grocery shopping etc. Ritalin is for when I need to work on something like coding.

As far as ethical concerns I can tell you I have never smoked or drank alcohol. The only "drug" i had ever had prior to ritalin was caffiene and nyquil. I have forgone pain medication that was prescribed to me just because I am personally not a fan of altering ones state of mind.

What sort of ethical dilemma do you feel regarding taking medication?

If you have adhd your brain is either not built the same as others or not functioning properly. Do you have a problem with the visually impaired wearing glasses? If not, why would you have a problem with taking your medication?

I did Adderall. Sucks though because on days off I finally feel like myself but I've been on it so long my life will fall apart without it. I have a decent paying job but it's high stress with lots of physical stuff, critical thinking, and decision making.
Early retirement is my only hope now. 99% of my portfolio is in crypto and I just bought a house for 115k this month. My life has been building up to this moment and hopefully it's the last big play I make before taking it easy. Already I cut my hours to just two days a week. Once the house is paid off I should be able to make it off passive income off investments.
I like staying home, playing with plants, homemade beer, anime, and riding my bike. Set your sights low enough and anything is possible. Old me or future wife might want more in life, but that's why I plan for

>At first he did want to give me medication

didn't want to give me medication*

this is some great advice thank you user

I always woke up a bit early and did the homework the day it was due.

>visually impaired ... glasses
that is a fair point, I appreciate you pointing that out. I'll do some research or somethin

Honestly the main reason why I can't do my homework is because everything is so pointless I can't find any motivation.
Do homework, for what? So that I can live the rest of my life on a 9-5 until I'm too old to keep going?
There's no incentive, everything seems like absolute trash. Not even the idea of eventually getting a gf motivates me. I just feel dead inside. Hopefully you're not as hopeless as I am.

iktf user. Since I'm at home all day it's incredibly hard for me not to get distracted, I've been failing my quizzes and not doing homework. Every time I sit down to do work I get the sensation to stop and take a walk or do something fun. I would go to the library to work as there are less distractions but my mom is scared that she'll get covid. I have a lot of stem classes and no gen eds so its harder already. This has been troubling me for years but now it's making passing classes nearly impossible. I also thought I have ADD but I heard if you aren't diagnosed with it from childhood you probably don't have it. I haven't gotten any exercise since I stopped doing sports in highschool and maybe that could be a reason?

did you ever think video games are the one killing your attention span?

hey user ... we got some cute traps for u here

plenty of people slip through without a diagnosis. the more intelligent you are the more likely it wont be discovered until later in life

No, I quit video games for 40 days.

ADHD isn't really about attention, that's more of a misnomer. It's an executive function disorder.

Switch to trades

ah, can you explain in more detail

stop staring into screen for a couple hours, sounds retarded but once your brain doesnt expect a constant barrage of input every minute shit will go a lot easier

>Consider slacking off and not doing my homework
>Remember that neglecting my studies will have severe consequences that will only snowball out of control the more I don't do my work
>Grow fearful of my future
>Sit down and do the work
Honestly the consequences of not doing your homework should be more than enough motivation to make you at least give it a shot. I can procrastinate my studies as much as anyone else, but I have always been obsessive about schoolwork and will go to great lengths to ensure that it is quality. Not like I have anything to do besides mosey around, play video games, or go for a hike anyways. Might as well do my work now so that I can attack my cock or browse this board later. I believe many people let their depression seize control over almost every aspect of their lives. Being miserable leads you to neglect your studies. Neglecting your studies contributes to your misery. It's extremely normie-tier "bee yourself" type advice, but you have the break the cycle or else you will continue suffering.
