i spoke with some of you about it, but id like to share. i find that it's incredibly challenging for me to do hio homework. the whole having to read bits and pieces of long as lectures (often skipping parts) + reading the questions and having to look back at lecture again + refering to 'the textbook' aka wiki then looking back at lecture + sometimes misinterpreting questions + meeting the points required and word count on questions + the professors strict grading doesn't help much either. (they can also be quite critical ;-;) it takes forever to complete a hw only worth 1-5 house point and doesn't seem too worth it with the time spent.
soemtiems i get so annoyed when brain won't cooperate that I try and speed it through which gives me a bad grade usually lol.
worst part is having to write the rps. that's usually when my brain often doesn't want to and it can become quite excruciating to make the brain do something it doesn't want to for me. I actually used to recycle/reuse hw rps long time ago because of it, but obv, lots of upset professors. and i often leave and come back to that homework only after months - often surprised that i have a half drafted hw that i dont recall doing.
I am also unmedicated, but not sure if meds will do much to change this tbh.
I am trying to find an easier way to get through homework and earn points. If only I can hyperfocus that easily. But there really isn't much lol ~~aside from like recycling rps which is a nono~~. it's def one of the not-so-ADHD friendly aspects of hio from my experience. id like to hear your experience with hio hw. I may also have a mini interview with professors on gathering some tips for us adhders to make hw experience a little better.

See, I hyperfocus on one thing, more specifically anything outside of real life. And homework was something I enjoyed. While the wait is a bit lengthy, I think it's alright with me because I have roleplays to do, then I'm designing the club article, which helps distract me from it.

Ah, yas, the old times - its quite similar to my first year where i hyperfocused on hio rather than actual school work. see the first year. ive gotten top earner a few times in 2018-2019 before brain began to see hw more as a chore. i think hyperfocusing might have also contributed to the year-long reign of swag club in 2019 before brain started to see moderation as just another chore again. this was b4 i actually knew i had adhd, but the diagnosis explains sooo much in the past that i didnt understand why then. too bad i cant really hyperfocus anymore aside from coding sometimes.Noah Jupe wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 12:07 See, I hyperfocus on one thing, more specifically anything outside of real life.

I sort of have that struggle too. Im trying help my house and I end up doing only 2 homeworks at most while everyone else has done 5-10.
Omg, cross word puzzle
is that the word "eat" under herbology?

There used to be much more words, but some lessons were removed to make space for new ones i think. hope it didnt change my overall grade percentage too much. i want to try and make a potato, poop or teaJuniper Kelly wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 12:45 I sort of have that struggle too.

the thing for me is sometimes i get hyperfocused on hw, but only when i have the motivation for it--most of the times i often do every question except the rp and come back after a week to finish that. it might be because my brain can't alternate between academic answers and then creative writing. i often finish one hw then won't do another for abt a month lol.

what i can recommend is doing it in segments if it helps. it might take longer time to send it in but at least it works for me in the sense that i still manage to get everything done in the end.

i've never really thought brain alternating between rp and answers. ive viewed it more as brain getting fatigued or bored from doing the more meticulous questions that it starts protesting by becoming so aggravatingly slow. i sometimes do it in segments, but it kinda gets set at the back of my mind by default when i leave the page.Regina Miller wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 14:30Reduciothe thing for me is sometimes i get hyperfocused on hw, but only when i have the motivation for it--most of the times i often do every question except the rp and come back after a week to finish that. it might be because my brain can't alternate between academic answers and then creative writing. i often finish one hw then won't do another for abt a month lol.Aurelia Notrésvace wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 11:23 @Regina Miller @Simon Corbin @Juniper Kelly @Simon Kincaid @Noah Jupe @Vienna Goodwin @Wyatt Starkey @James Owen

enviousss. just Es and Os... gryffindor appreciates your work. yep, concentration is hard, i find myself on youtube/other threads/discord/pinterest a question or two in. it gets especially frustrating to scroll back when the lecture is very long, tip is have two tabs, but that means you'd have to keep switching tabs.Regina Miller wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 15:28Reducionot really, so far all of my grades have been O's the occasional E's (^-^;) i always try to drag the sentence out to meet the wc and i understand the questions fairly well, i just have a problem of concentration and having to constantly scroll back to read a passage in the lesson againAurelia Notrésvace wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 14:45i've never really thought brain alternating between rp and answers. ive viewed it more as brain getting fatigued or bored from doing the more meticulous questions that it starts protesting by becoming so aggravatingly slow. i sometimes do it in segments, but it kinda gets set at the back of my mind by default when i leave the page.Regina Miller wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 14:30Reduciothe thing for me is sometimes i get hyperfocused on hw, but only when i have the motivation for it--most of the times i often do every question except the rp and come back after a week to finish that. it might be because my brain can't alternate between academic answers and then creative writing. i often finish one hw then won't do another for abt a month lol.Aurelia Notrésvace wrote: 6 Apr 2022, 11:23 @Regina Miller @Simon Corbin @Juniper Kelly @Simon Kincaid @Noah Jupe @Vienna Goodwin @Wyatt Starkey @James Owen
