Thanks. For me personally, audiobooks are a bit of a double-edged sword with my ADHD. If everyone has a "stream of consciousness", mine's more like a ravaging ocean during a storm. I get distracted a lot, even when I watch video essays that provide a visual experience to illustrate their point. Podcasts are actually very hard for me to follow along due to this, but I think I could try audio books for some topics at least. There's always the rewind button...
I hear you. I often tend to have a very negative point of view. There's still lots of areas to be improved, but that doesn't need to happen constantly or all at the same time. I guess now would be a good time for me to delve into the works of Albert Camus, since that's something that interested me for a long time but haven't found the time nor energy to go deeper into such topics. It's kinda hard when my early shifts tire me out so much that I fall asleep in my armchair; but there's always a bit of free time to use for such things. Thanks for the positive encouragement! ๐๐ป
