how to "be in the moment" with adhd and ocd
21f. my biggest hurdle right now is getting stuck in negative feedback loops, and ive been told this is what i need to do. but i just don't understand it. i have adhd and have learned that's why i feel this need to always be moving, always be doing something, always be occupied, etc, but also why i get easily distracted and stuck in my head.
being "in the moment" always involves meditating, clearing away distractions, removing external stimulation. with meditation i get super distracted and ultimately distressed/annoyed, and w the other two, i get fidgety and anxious without a lot of stimulation.
i was also told to just "enjoy the good parts of life" but life is really hard for me rn, and even focusing narrower i just get nitpicky and find reasons to hate things (i cant enjoy chocolate bc its bad for me, i cant watch a show bc i didnt do every on my to do list, etc). i know the self punishment isnt helping but idk how to stop 😭
any advice??? new to the first disorder very familiar w the second one.
