My brand of neurospicey has a heavy musical lean to it. I wanted to be a school music director at one point. Took years and years of classes but it wasn't in the cards. I can't listen to music now, without directing it in my head or drumming out the beat. The more chaotic and out there, the more i focus on the music and not what im supposed to be doing. For me, its got to be chill lofi or jazz or nothing at all.
I cannot listen to music and do anything but listen to music. So, to feed the ADHD, I play rain sounds, Blade Runner Sci-fi atmosphere sounds, airport control tower, police radio firefighter radio, all at the same time, so I hear speech but it is impossible for me to understand what people say and focus on it.
TIL it's an ADHD thing, huh
My wife doesn't understand how i can think with EDM on headphones, but it really does work.
She would if she had robot ears.
Crust punk works well too. Or anything chaotic
Its like when two waves crash into each other they cancel out. My brain is one chaotic wave, dingy punk is the other.
anything chaotic
Most of the time I'll have an earworm song in my head... but the thing is it's usually not alone.
Anything can be chaotic enough if you mash up enough different songs together at the same time.
Gore grind is crust on steroids. Give Brilliant Behemoth a go. Or JigAi. Or even Last Days of Humanity
I'm penchant to Bone Dirger when Gore becomes too much. Try the Fateful Five mix, or take Monty's Ghost for a whirl
I can't resolve that to any music. If it is, please give links, I'm intrigued.
It's so specific it's mean.
There are memes I've been wanting –but unready!– to post for literal years.
Ah yes, hacking by self medicating.
Adhd and drinking amounts of caffeine that would explode a gorilla's heart. Name a more iconic duo
Ooh, I must try this.... Maybe not so loud though
This, but I’m building a bocce ball court in the back yard to get closer to the plants I need to repot but it’s giving me anxiety because there’s so many. So instead I dig a hole in the yard 40x10 while blasting Pheobe Bridgers
I've recently found using my Skullcandy crushers to play music in a manner that would make a nightclub blush while studying can keep me from constantly looking around at everything but what I'm studying
Replace music with audiobook/comedy-recording and watch my house get tidy.
As soon as I blast heavy metal in my headset I get into the zone. Great for getting shit done, bad for my hearing.
WHAT?!
Mind your eardrums.
Watch out for the tinnitus, static
Ugh....the bane of my existence. Use earplugs kids
