Studying support

[outlander]

sounds like you have a good plan in place for your future @Nannax2 it can be so exhausting though studying!

hi @fluffylight
i have never heard of a body double but it sounds really good! i dont have ADHD myself but i feel like that would be good for me as i get so overwhelmed with tasks sometimes!

[fluffylight]

Yes @outlander I feel like anyone can benefit from body doubling!

Let me know if you ever try it! 

Hope it might be a tool to ease your overwhelm 🙂 

[outlander]

i will definently have a look into it @fluffylight

i find breaking down tasks helpful, completing one section at a time and sometimes doing the easy tasks first benefical. sometimes i break it into easy task then harder task then easy so it feels like i actually get somewhere with my assignments

[fluffylight]

Oh!! This is a good idea. @outlander Breaking it into easy-hard-easy. 

Sometimes my assignments go nowhere and I spend hours just being distracted and staring at the screen 😐

[outlander]

yes definently @fluffylight

one of my recent tafe assignments were 65 pages long! so that was super overwhelming to try and get through

[fluffylight]

@outlander Congrats on getting through that - that sounds like an awful amount of work. 

[outlander]

honestly it wasnt to hard it was just time consuming and has so much fluffing around in it for workplace stuff @fluffylight if all of the stuff was straight to the point it probably wouldve only been around 30 pages and most of it was just ticking stuff off that i have completed in the workplace for the prac stuff

[fluffylight]

Oh that's good @outlander 

Yes I did a Tafe course in Individual Support that had the same sort of fluffing around needed for workplace - I'm glad that's over.

[outlander]

yes @fluffylight the course im in now that combined individual support and disability is much the same i think
