ADHD and time blindness-how we can get better at understanding time

In this podcast, Dave talks about some of the causes of time blindness in adults with ADHD. Everything from the way our brain is wired, hyperfocus and flow, squeezing more things into our schedule, and other reasons.

Here are a few basic ways you can keep track of time:

1. Try your best to put everything in your schedule-professional and personal. Invite each other such as spouses to certain events
2. Try hard not to squeeze things in when you have a free few minutes.
3. Alarm the shit out of your life. If you're using an iPhone, take a few minutes and preset important alarms for your week.
4. Use the sleep app on your iPhone or another device
5. Apple Watch has its pros and cons for those of us with ADHD
6. Parkinson's law-work expands to the time allotted so set deadlines and timeframes.
7. Good brain health-executive functions such as understanding time get better when our brain is healthier
