    As someone with time blindness who used to lose track of time very often, i will literally write on the back of my hand, put sticky notes on surfaces that i look at/pass by often, and set an obscene amount of alarms to make sure things are done and I'm on time.

      Yeah that’s not funny… there so many people with invisible disabilities that no one can see and people make fun and dismiss it. She is not anything people are saying she is because she asked for accommodations.
      She asked for that because she wanted help, because she wanted to be and do better. Is it really that bad for her to want to get help so she could succeed? She even basically asked for a councilor to help her… why is that bad? Why is asking for help wrong? Why is being able to receive help wrong?
      I don’t understand…

    ADHDer here with terrible time blindness. We all have a portable alarm clock in our pockets/hands right now. Set daily alarms. I'm lucky that I have a very consistent schedule so I can set an alarm once and more or less forget about it (until it goes off, of course). I would never dare ask ANYONE (employer, friends, family, etc) to accommodate MY very much manageable symptom.
    Another tip not too unrelated to time blindness: put writable surfaces all over your house to make notes, especially by places you pass by often (front door, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom). I have a desk calendar hanging on my fridge along with a legal pad. There's a notebook on my coffee table. Another notebook in my bedroom. My office is littered with sticky notes.
    TL;DR: Alarms and sticky notes are your best friend.

    Time blindness can mostly be self accommodated but some accommodations don't work for everyone, alarms are great until you get desensitized to them (I have time sensitive medication and it's really frustrating to wake up and realize I slept through my multiple alarms. I have multiple alarms to wind down for bed and I basically started ignoring them) It's important (if you're like me) to find lots of self accommodations that you can kind of rotate and cycle through. I put sticky notes EVERYWHERE and that works well until it becomes background noise and I stop reading them. With some forms of ADHD you basically have to have flexibility and accept that there really aren't any long term solutions and you just need to have a lot of strategies for when one stops working. Sometimes its not even that the strategy doesn't work but that you need to do it slightly different. (Like putting my phone on my desk so I'm forced to walk over to it instead of just turning it off from bed or setting up a new alarm sound when I get too used to the old one.)
    I just see a lot of comments acting like there's a definitive solution and it's not always like that. I do think schools should be more accommodating (cuz you're paying for your education) but those accommodations are more like access to counselors who can help you develop strategies rather than extra time windows because lectures are scheduled for a reason and sure you could argue that the 4 times late and you're out policy is super dumb (which I think it is because shit happens) but having access to counselors is way more important for developing long term strategies especially when you're young.

    Aw, August…I TOO struggle with OCD. You described it perfectly. My ‘consequences’ always involve someone close to me dying. If I don’t open and close the fridge door 4 times my child is going to perish…that kind of crap. My OCD is mostly internal with a few routines I do with certain items around my house. I have to breath a certain way (or hold my breath) when I do the routines and I have to count in 4’s, all while not blinking. The internal part is where I ‘process’ thoughts and I have to do the breathing/counting/not blinking thing while I repeat thoughts in my head until I feel like I did it correctly. What’s really strange is that I tend to do it more when things are going WELL. It’s usually the opposite. Enough about me. I’m glad you’re doing better with the disorder.
    Now, before I post this, I have to read, reread, and read again until I feel everything’s okay.

    If you understand the concept of time and you’re usually late why not set your alarm 15-30 minutes earlier? Or set your clocks forward so you ‘trick’ yourself that It’s later than it is?

      Time blindness is a form of disassociating, it’s very different then just losing track of time. It’s honestly like you’re teleporting through out the day, you stop to do a simple task that you say is only going to take a few minutes you set time for when you stop timer goes off and you keep going… people with time blindness basically zone out and the only thing they can focus on is the thing they are doing. This is one example.
      Another is them doing so much at one, again setting an alarm but not realizing it’s going off.
      When people disassociate especially those with adhd it’s like they are just in this tiny void with themselves and what ever their mind directs them to do. It can be confusing to understand if you’ve never experienced disassociating…
      There are different ways to help those with time blindness and there are so many different ways because there are so many different types of people with different types of adhd as it is a spectrum, and so is time blindness.
      Hope this helps and feel free to ask me any questions ❤ remember people with adhd and/or time blindness are not lazy, irresponsible, selfish, or uncaring, their brains are just wired a little differently.

    people have varying levels of severity with their symptoms, and some people may never be able to overcome certain symptoms. i wish people would treat mental health diseases the same way as physical health ones and accommodate accordingly. however, people that expect accommodations for things that just... can't be accommodated for, hurts people that are severely disabled who need realistic accommodations. there is so much need for these accommodations for people who have no control over certain symptoms, and someone asking for something unrealistic just deeply harms disabled people and makes others take disabled people, especially those with mental disabilities, even less seriously than they already do. also wanted to say if your so severely timeblind to the extent of not being able to work i think it's time to try for disability. just ugh it's frustrating because mental disabilities and any other disability that is "invisible" are already not taken seriously and shit like this just makes it so much worse...

    Quick reminder that there are accommodations that ARE valid. Some places have plans for disorders that are episodic that are a little more flexible on deadlines if that comes up. There also typically are things like test accommodations if you meet the criteria for certain physical or mental disabilities.
    There is a difference between things you can and cannot take steps to account for. Time blindness is something you absolutely can adjust your schedule to meet your needs without outside help. Manic episodes you cannot. And while it's important to take into consideration which pathways your disabilities will prevent you from taking in life, you also deserve a chance to meet your full potential just like everyone else.
    If you are struggling due to a disorder, reach out to your university's student disability office or a doctor and ask about what possible options there are for your future.

    When I was in school, before I was medicated for my adhd, I actively looked for a afternoon school. That specific school started at 3pm and ended at 10 it gave me more than enough time to get ready when I wake up in the morning, I’d often ride with my dad on his daily chores so once it was near opening time he would take me there about an hour early and I’d sit in the hall right near my classroom. Idk why she’s expecting people to accommodate that, she needs to find a later class schedule. Now that I’m out of school, I’ve found work that starts at 2pm so I can make it on time. Don’t expect people to accommodate you’re life when it’s not a disabling issue.

  • @Xuromikuromi

    In my experience. Time blindness is just a huge waste of free time, either we think we have too much of it so we waste our personal off days doing things we didn't want to do, or we have no idea how much we have, so we sit around waiting for appointments to happen for hours so we won't be late. I showed up to work early even at 4am shifts, just sat in my car whatever extra time I had. If I ever thought I could stop for coffee I'd be late. So I bring my own coffee. I set like 20 alarms each minute up until I HAVE to wake up.
    The accommodation she's looking for is something she needs to make for herself. No one else can see time for her, she has to grow up and figure it out. It's harder for us ADHD people but that's just how it is.

    You can absolutely accommodate time blindness in the workplace, if the work is compatible. For example, software development could be something simple like be in before X time and get your hours in. But for something like line work or emergency services, it wouldn't be possible. Don't know if the program she was talking about was compatible or not.

    coming from a person with actual adhd, that have actually served in the us navy I really hate it when ppl use adhd as an excuse to not do anything in life or to get out trouble they cause. I fully stand by saying they are the scum of the earth. Even tho i have this disability i still woke up and got to work/duty on time everyday, because it’s honestly a me problem that CAN be fixed. Never used it as an excuse, and didn’t know that i had ADHD until my 3rd year in. Which means i got through my first 18 years to include 12 years of school, then basic training, a-school, fmtb (for all my AD/vets/Reservist that are in i was a HM when i was in) and some of my contract with NO EXCUSES. Mfs need to get offline and touch some grass, it’s not about how society can accommodate you and it will NEVER be that.

  • @Diahrrea_Jones

    I am in a wheelchair on top of being autistic with ADHD. The way many of you talk about ADHD is really ableist. My ADHD is bad enough that it keeps me from being able to work a normal job. It isn't because I dont "try hard enough," ; I spent my youth constantly pushing myself beyond my threshold in order to keep my head above water, but as a now 30-something with fibromyalgia, I do not have the physical or mental energy to keep that up. While It's great that many of you know someone with ADHD who is able to manage their symptoms through alarms, notes, or other tips n tricks, for plenty of other with ADHD our symptoms are so severe that our brains won't respond to that. It's not a moral failing on our part as if we just lack the willpower to adhere to a schedule. Time blindness isn't ignoring my alarms. I set alarms. I acknowledge said alarms. I respond to said alarms by getting up with the intention of getting to where I need to go on time. But, It doesn't work because the alarm (or note or whatever) is not the issue. The issue is that I'll get up from the alarm, go to the bathroom to brush my teeth, then suddenly realize 30 minutes have gone by and I have no way of accounting for or explaining that loss of time. There's no life hack to fix that. My ADHD is one of the main reasons I am on disability income. My time blindness, forgetfulness, brain fog, my severe lack of executive function, my inability to finish tasks in a timely manner, etc., all made working extremely difficult for me to do effectively. The ironic thing is that the person in this video isn't even asking for workplace accommodations. She just wants to find a way to get an education. Why on earth is beteering one's self something to gate keep? What she's asking for arent even things a school would have to go out of their way for. She's basically asking for permission to come to class late, or to have lectures recorded, or to be able to attend a lecture virtually in the event of an absence-- all things we know can be easily accommodated thanks to covid. Personally, I think education should be made as easily accessible as possible. If there's an accomodation that can be made that allows more individuals to get an education, we should just do it. There is 0 benefit to saying, "You either find a way to function like your abled classmates or don't get an education at all."

  • @Nabooru
    @Nabooru 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Oh goodness. She keeps making responses, I have a feeling I know where her blind time is going!
    I have a lot of experiences with time blindness, and I'm split on "accommodations" as she frames it in this video and what that means. I'm probably the most time-blind person I know, but I'm still clocked in at work within 5 minutes. More often than not, time blindness means I make my appointments but forget important personal items. Time blindness means that the time I spend before an appointment is never relaxing, because I don't feel permission from myself to get *into* something engaging, and that is also influenced by task switching difficulties, which are another thing with ADHD/Autism. So my appointments are good, but I'm personally more stressed and less prepared.
    This spawned from an argument with her mother, though, and I can kind of relate to how time blindness affects interpersonal relationships. Like, if she's just asking people to be more understanding rather than verbally badgering her for her mistakes, that's valid. It's hard to completely blank out on time and then have someone get angry at you and take it personally, like you don't "respect" their time over something that you just don't have as good a gauge on. Sometimes, our time blindness manages to "outsmart" the mechanisms we put in place to prevent it and there was never a conscious choice at all, so having someone else there to say, "hey, just so you know, we're leaving in 15," rather than yelling at you for not being "ready at this moment" can just make the situation worse.
    I don't ask people for "accommodations" in a vague way, but I AM very specific on how people who are a part of my daily life (we do things/go places together, I help them, the help me) can help me with time blindness so that we can be both timely and prepared, and I won't need to worry about making a rest stop to purchase that phone charger I forgot to pack when we were rushing out. I ask for this help in the same way I ask for people to walk slower when my asthma is acting up and my inhaler needs a chance to kick in. Giving me advanced notice of things so I can put them in my schedule helps, rather than springing up things at the last minute that they themselves knew about well in advanced. Checking in with me about whether I have time for a deep online conversation before jutting into one can really help, in case I was just about to get into the shower or make dinner, because I think I'll just be talking for 10 minutes and 2 hours go by. These are all things I am capable of doing for myself and often do, but there is still a chance that, because of how time blindness and all of the other memory/functioning issues surrounding ADHD work, that I just forget to set that reminder.
    So, I don't think it's helpful for her to discuss time blindness in such an isolated way. The things that make time blindness difficult for the people who experience it are very much influenced by other aspects of the disorder that causes it, e.g. ADHD, as well as PTSD and other disorders that cause disassociation. Time blindness alone wouldn't cause so many problems with those helpful aids, but the ability to get immediately distracted, to forget to set alarms,all of that sometimes works together in a way that some of us do need some extra help from the people who want to spend time with us. I mean, sometimes, you just get caught up in writing that quick youtube comment, and suddenly...
    Well, shit. Just realized that I passively turned off my meds alarm while typing this. Lucky day, I caught myself. 😅

    I have ADHD & autism, & I struggle with sleep at night, & ofc in the morning I have a whole ass routine where I need to make the same breakfast I’ve been eating for years (without which I cannot function). I have been late to work which is 5mins away (or however long it takes me to walk from the kitchen to my desk in the living room 😂). Time blindness is real, but it’s not impossible to be on time most of the time. A 100 alarms for me are a must, but I never ask my job for accommodations for this cuz it’d be ridiculous! The world doesn’t revolve around me, & the time I need to start doesnt have to be the time I tell my brain I need to start. Usually, I always leave a 15mins window & trick my brain into thinking that I start 15mins before I actually have to, that way I make sure Im not late most of the time.

    Adhd time blindness is real tho! I have alarms set to remind me of a task/having to leave house on time. But the time calculated for a task might be too little even if I have done the thing multiple times. I might notice a stain in the shirt I picked out the night before amd then will have to find another one (which is also hard because of sensory issues and the weather changing depending on the day etc.) so it takes time. Or when putting on outside clothes I might be missing a mitten or my chapstick has disappeared from my pocket... And then I have to find the item to be able to leave. I am doing a LOT of work to be on time because people find it rude if you're late and I want to be respectful to others. It's a constant struggle and every year I find a little something, a new trick that helps me improve. Having adhd doesn't mean you aren't responsible for you being late. I simply ask a little empathy.

    Something to keep in mind is there's an act called the, "The Americans with Disabilities Act" or ADA, which grants those with disabilities better working conditions. Now time blindness in itself isn't a disability but another way to call losing track of time. Though time blindness is WAY more prevalent in people with ADHD or ADD so she could get accommodations for that. This would be if she wasn't talking about her mom 💀

    Lady, I'm not from the US or even N. America. Or any of the Americas. But listen to this
    All my years growing up I wanted to be a vet. In retrospect I know I couldn't pass vet school because I'm not that good at memorizing a crap ton of details. I'm good at other areas of study, which was great.
    Now, 'not good' is one thing. Not being able to do the work is another. I'm physically disabled from birth. No way I could do the job without tons of help or accommodations in my own private practice, let alone vet school. It was not realistic in any way, shape or form.
    So I ended up getting over it and moving on with my life. It was painful but accepting my limitations in this reality was a great opportunity for growth. The end.

    I mean, time blindness is a real thing, but not usually to the extent she says.
    I can't tell how long passes between events unless it's days, and I lose track of what day it is easily. That's easily fixed by checking my phone or a calendar.
    If someone were to say, "keep track of this task for x amount of time." Or if I had a set amount of time until needing to do something, I wouldn't be able to tell how long passes without an alarm. 5 minutes or 5 hours, if I am bored it feels the same, if I am having fun, it feels the same. But it's not THAT hard to solve. You just set an alarm and go when it alerts you.
    All of the solutions available are on you, or MAYBE if you have a chill manager, you can ask them for help with timing things if you aren't allowed a phone at work.
    What she wants is unreasonable. Autism and adhd IS a disability, and it's one I have to live with every day, but then it kinda defeats the point in trying to be taken seriously as adults when people like her try to have a voice for the community. She does more harm than good with this stuff.
    Yes. Time blindness exists, but its not that deep.

  • @Zilkenian_Davenport
    @Zilkenian_Davenport ปีที่แล้ว

    ADHD has "time blindness", which I have when I read a book, for example. However, I allow myself that when reading a book because I know I do it when I actually have free time. The rest of the time I trained myself (for years) to always look at the time, either in the PC, in the clock on our wall or in the cellphone, to keep my mind from wandering, and reminding myself of how much time has passed.
    So no, her excuses are not valid. If you can't get yourself to be a responsible person with your job, eff it, surround yourself with clocks and alarms.

    So ADHD time blindness doesn't involve sleeping in too long. It's not being able to accurately or consistently experience the passage of time and/or not being able to judge how much time you actually have to complete tasks or get to an appointment. An accommodation, in her case, would be to allow up to 10 to 15 minutes late without it counting against her or to suspend the policy entirely. I myself deal with this with ADHD. My personal accommodation, which I impose on myself due to personal angsiety over lateness, is to be at least 30 minutes early to anywhere I need to be. It's the other option when dealing with time blindness, either be consistently 10 to 15 minutes late to everything or obsess over time and be excessively early to everything. Either way. ADHDers pay a tax for time blindness by missing out or losing copious amounts of their time that could've been dedicated to improving their lives. I get you don't understand, it's not easy to understand if you don't experience it, and she doesn't explain it well at all. I hope my explanation helps you to understand better, and realize that with time blindness, the pendulum swings to the unreasonable in either direction. Tight schedules are impossible for us.

      We need more awareness and understanding of the realities of adhd and the neurodivergent brain. Of course we need to identify potential triggers, but accommodations aren't as much about triggers as respect. Compare it to being stabbed, then being told it is your responsibility not to bleed or feel pain. You deserve to work in a place where you are not constantly "stabbed."
      Similar to diabetes where, no matter your diet and routine, if the pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin (or too much), the body doesn't correctly process, etc. you need accommodations like being able to inject yourself and eat/drink as needed. Likewise, if the brain is not getting proper dopamine and being pressured, scolded, given demands beyond what others do, etc. is very triggering and disrespectful. No matter the medication, you still need breaks and accommodations.

      So why are you saying/doing this exact thing?
      Just because you don’t have the intelligence or empathy to understand someone’s disability doesn’t in turn make them lazy or anything negative thing you have to say about them.
      This all needs to stop, accommodations are normal and standard and actually have to be provided by law to people with disabilities.
      She is asking for help so she can be better and do better that’s all… that is the basics of it. Just because a disability can’t be seen doesn’t make it not a disability.
      She isn’t lazy she just has time blindness which is a form of disassociating which can’t be controlled easily. ADHD is a spectrum, so is time blindness, so that means that not just anything is gonna work everyone. What works for someone else may not works the next person.
      Have more empathy, have more understanding, do more research on a disability before demeaning someone and dismissing their struggle.

    The fact is that ADHD time blindness can be self-accommodated. Keeping conscious track of time, using time alerts every 15, 30, 45 minutes etc, or getting your brain in gear with food or exercise. Schools are required to provide REASONABLE accommodations, but if they are able to self-accommodate generally those are preferred anyway.

    Hi, 32 year old adult with ADHD here: time "blindness" is silly to me. I'm very aware of time. I do however go into "waiting mode" where I'm too scared to begin a task knowing I have work or plans later. To remedy this, I always get to work about an hour early. I have never been late once. This also helps as when it's busy, I'm asked to clock in early and get to get a few extra hours in through the week.

    Time blindness can be managed effectively with various strategies:

    Creating Routines: Establish daily routines to help regulate your internal sense of time.
    Using Visual Aids: Employ visual timers or clocks to visualize the passage of time and manage tasks accordingly.
    Prioritizing Tasks: Focus on prioritizing tasks based on their importance and allocate appropriate time slots.

      I had something similar to OCD for about a year, I doubt it was actual OCD but I don't know really. So my door jams often, meaning that it can be pushed open without turning the knob. It scared me at the time and as previously said for around a year I would get up 3-4 times a night to check that it was closed all the way, only falling asleep when I was finally convinced it was closed, sometimes as late as 3 am. I also checked that my closet was closed all the way and that all my models were still in their tray. But that was the thing that I did the most. I got myself to stop doing it by whenever I did it I would have to do 20 pushups. Laziness actually stopped it 🤷‍♂
