Feels like all or nothing doesn't it? 💚

💡 Hyperfocus as a #Neurodivergent EdD researcher:
✍️ 2,000+ words in one go
🕰️ Forgetting to eat, move, rest
🔄 Burnout follows intense focus
🧃 Need time to recover
🧩 Can’t switch tasks once I’m “locked in”

Anyone else experience this? How does it show up for you?

I have just submitted my intention to submit my thesis for September this year. It’s starting to feel very close to the end of my doctorate!

Back to my EdD today. Still very ill, but this gives me something to do during the day.

My new blog for BERA has arrived. I would be grateful if you could share this morning with your colleagues as part of ND celebration week! #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek #EdD #phdlife

Tidying up some work towards my literature review and making those incremental steps make a big difference in the long run!

Of course, it's the weekend and I'm becoming unwell 😔😀

I had a productive day. Hopefully the same again tomorrow when I work on my thesis.

I feel like I've made some progress on the methodology chapter.

Added in a new diagram and have been working on improving my methods section.

I got some feedback on my methodology chapter. But, I'm going to wait till Monday to action it.

Otherwise I'll be overthinking it all weekend! 😂

Today, I am working on organising papers to include in my literature review. #PhD #EdD #Academic

Great advice, Rosi. I sometimes get distracted by notifications on vibrate. So, when I really need to focus on writing, I will switch my phone to silent mode and place it in another part of the room away from my desk.

I am currently working on implementing time-management strategies to improve my efficiency in writing my thesis.

Let me know any tips you may have for this?

Thanks for the suggestion, I have tried it in the past but I think having a visual timer might make this more effective for me 🤔

Thanks for the support and encouragement ✨

I tried to do some of my literature review but my head hurt too much from having a cold 😔

Thank you !

That would be awesome 😎

I understand, having spoken with others' it is a similar thing I am hearing. I hope you find a place of belonging here.

Has the Neurodivergent/Neurodiversity Community moved to BlueSky from Twitter/X?

What are your main reasons for doing so?
