    I’ve never been diagnosed with adhd. Some have been saying I potentially may be on the autism spectrum. I don’t want to make any solid statements on wether I do or not, until I’m certain via a diagnosis.
    However, breaking down daily tasks and productivity tasks into simple, straightforward check lists is legitimately one of the major things I do just so I can be productive and not totally distracted by practically anything nearby. Like even jotting down a time to shower, or have a grocery task to check off, but a separate in-depth grocery list as it’s own thing. It’s almost like a very detail heavy day planner.
    Growing up, I’d fidget with silly putty so much in school, that my favourite one that I used almost hourly physically melted in my hands during a school assembly. I don’t know if it was overworked over time, or if it just got too old, but it basically became very sticky glue that got everywhere.
    I guess that’s what attracted me to this video in particular because these modern fidget toys seem so much better than a wad of silly putty in your fist 24/7.

    Had to come back here saying how this video got me to wanting an ONO roller and finally got one a few weeks ago, and virtually have never stopped using it since. I've even got a few people at work hooked on it and I cannot thank Mark enough for introducing it because it is the perfect fidget anything because of how simple and quiet it is (also I accidentally dropped it one time and it feels somehow smoother despite nothing changing, I might just be lying to myself to feel better about dropping it).

      I started doing pen-spinning tricks in high school as a stim thing, but I stopped because I was dropping the pen so much. 😳 It was the same thing with being conscious about the noise myself, as I never actually had anyone complain about it, but I felt bad about the noise I was making. 😬
      I could have practiced at home, but I pretty much only needed it in school, so that's the only place I did it which meant I didn't get enough practice to be good enough to not drop the pen every minute or so.. 🤦‍♂ And practice at home where I didn't need it, so I could do it in school where I needed it? Naaaah..! That's too much work! 😂😂

      I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 7 and I’m the process of being diagnosed with autism (turns out it’s a lot harder to diagnose an adult) but the ADHD really made me feel like I couldn’t be like my peers who were usually well behaved. I had such terrible behavioural issues as a child and it’s not because I wanted to rebel or anything, I legitimately did not understand how to be a “good kid”. I got in trouble a lot and it always upset me because I couldn’t stop making people angry. It was hard to deal with because I couldn’t properly communicate how difficult it was for me, being a child. It really made me feel less than everyone else. I love seeing people with ADHD embrace it.

This video is fantastic! I really appreciate that you took time to offer advice on this subject. I'm always happy to find peers in the neurodivergent community. I kind of look up to you because you really seem to have your life together. When I got my diagnoses, I felt like I would never be able to function or connect with people.

    While others really prefer visuals.
    That's why it is important to really try out different toys and find out what appeals to you the most.

      In over ten years time, no-one had actually asked me if I had been tested for ADD. So it remained undiagnosed for a long time.
      My therapist admitted to no small amount of frustration when he realised that his predecessors never asked me about it.

    The oil droppers are one of my favourites, I had one like that before! My sibling had another one that dropped tiny drops down a spiral, the drops would merge into one big blob sometimes and I would watch it for hours when I was a kiddo.
    That, and one slime I had that I could play with in one hand. Most slimes are a no for me, but that one was perfect. I think it was called a crystal slime and it maybe bounced? But it was perfect and wasnt wet feeling and it stretched nicely.
    Also, blue tack and hair ties are great! But I agree, I like things that I can fidget with with one hand and that don't make noise. I curl, stretch and wrap hair ties around my fingers quite a lot because they aren't really obtrusive, they're portable and double up in terms of practical uses.

Because as someone with unmedicated ADHD that’s feels like the absolute perfect solution for the current rut I’m in. I immediately pulled out my notebook and jotted down the things I need to do for my assignment tomorrow by breaking them down into the simplest of actions so I can actually check them off and get through the assignment without getting discouraged from not being able to accomplish the bigger, more all-encompassing tasks. I feel a renewed sense of hope in doing my schoolwork now (which I avoided to watch this video). So thank you Mark!

I also like to think of it as starting with the least intimidating task and work yourself up to the big ones and all the tasks don’t look like one giant scary monster. That way you a.) feel like you did something already and b.) you’ve gained momentum at the end and you’ll hopefully enter a bit of a flow state.

    13:20 Mark's talk about breaking tasks down into smaller units is really helpful for anxiety too. I used get so overwhelmed with big, vague tasks on my to-do list that my mental response was to just not do ANYTHING because I felt like I wouldn't be able to accomplish everything I needed to, so why even try? I was burned out before I even started just from thinking about all the stuff I had to do in a short time. Now that I've gotten into making detailed lists with smaller tasks, it's a whole new ball game. My only regret is that it's something I learned to do by myself, through trial and error. I wish I'd learned to do this when I was younger, would have made school so much easier on my lil brain.

    for people who might not get it; the actual purpose of the fidget toys is so easily distracted people (whether ADHD or in my case dissociation related) have something to do with their hands that focuses and grounds you in the real-time moment.

    • @WasabiKitCat
      @WasabiKitCat 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      It's hard to explain exactly why it works but the best way I can describe it is it's like my brain has a few different channels like an 8-bit sound chip. If I'm understimulated all of the channels play different melodies which makes it impossible to focus on just one. But if I have something mindless to focus a couple of those channels on, such as a repetitive motion, it reduces those channels into quiet white noise, which makes it so I can focus better on the channels I'm using to work or whatever. So basically distracting myself makes me less distracted, which sounds contradictory but it makes sense to me. Sorry if this is incomprehensible.

    I very much relate to the not wanting to make noise, both to not irritate others and because it irritates myself. The squishy stim toys are usually my favorite, or the block ones that each and every cube can be moved and rearranged. Love the idea of the ono roller.
    I've got an annoying extra criteria that for most stim toys, I must not be able to see it. So foot or finger tapping has to be out of my own field of vision. Not sure why it is though, I wish it wasn't the case!

    Mark explaining how to manage doing big tasks with adhd/add is just making me so happy. He’s explaining the thing I do a lot to make sure I’ve done everything at work and on a daily basis, and it makes me feel like that kind of lifestyle is valid. I’ve had a few people look at me like I’m weird and say that I’m overcomplicating things and for me it just makes things feel simpler when I make my list and cross things off.

      Yeah, I’ve always had an inclination to fidget (I wouldn’t go so far as to say I have ADHD/ADD, I think it’s more from an anxiety angle), like since middle school or so. I always end up playing with water bottle caps- to the point where I’ve had my boss walk over to me mid-meeting and take one from me because I hadn’t noticed the noise, pen lids, stuff like that. I’ve tried pop its and the tubes and stuff because I buy them for my reward store in my elementary classroom and none of the actual “fidget” fidgets work for me. The one that came closest was a marble that is sealed into what looks like a mini version of one of those finger traps, but even then I ended up just putting it up and playing with a pen lid again.

    The thing I always notice about these is that the toys that often get written off more quickly and are found to be confusing are due to the fact that ADHD fidgets and autisic sensory toys are all grouped together (partially due to the comorbid nature of the two and baby toys end up in there due the infantilzation of autism) the two have similar but different characteristics and generalized needs in the toys.
    Examples
    The pin board is more sensory based
    The pop its are small repetitive motions (pop its are one of the fidget that gained mainstream popularity and thus we have the strange happy meal)
    The infinity cube is a constant repetitive motion that you could easily get lost in

      It's also because a lot of people think fidget toys are all supposed to do the same thing, when really, certain fidget toys are there to provide different kinds of experiences. Bigger fidget toys like pop its and that pin board are for, for me anyway, more momentary breaks from work when my brain is starting to drift and I need to do something mindless for a minute to then be able to focus on work again. Fidget cubes and infinity cubes are something I use during meetings or class, something small and silent that I can do out if sight wo that I focus on what I'm talking about. More complicated fidgets like the rings, the magnets, the engine, are more things you do while you're chilling. Maybe watching a movie and you want a periodic break every now and then if you're not doing a serious task and it requires a mild amount of focus. Not to mention all the new fidget toys like the FX line (the pens, the pods, the switchboards) that all provide different things in different situations. I have a huge amount of fidget toys that I use for different things and different situations. It's super easy to write off 99 percent of them if you're only looking at the kind of definition that, say, mark was using. This isn't to say that definition is WRONG, cuz it's totally not, but I like comments like these that talk about how different toys fit different situations (source: I'm also autistic and adhd lmaoo)

    • @Jerepasaurus

      This is exactly why Ethan's review a while ago annoyed me when he said a lot of the toys were straight up terrible. Especially since some of the ones he hated most were my favorite. A lot of these are also textural based comfort and don't necessarily need to be repetitive motions like ADHD might need.
      Honestly, as long as reviews like these just focus on "this does/doesnt work for me, but I see how this might work for others for x reasons-" like Mark did, that's some respect I appreciate.
      I myself have a quality silver spinner ring that I got about 18 years ago. I wear it every it every time I leave the house. It doesn't spin super smooth, but it feels relatable not to. lol
      That little squishy pea pod keychain was definitely my jam.
