long inhale for calmness

If someone publicly admits that they have ADHD, there is a good chance that they have been diagnosed by either a medical professional or extreme amounts of research and self-insight. In both cases, they have almost certainly already received treatment and/or implemented coping strategies. This may be your first time hearing about it, but it is not theirs.

The purpose of this comment is not to offer assistance to me, but rather, to deflect blame from the systemic problem (that I pointed out in my post and elaborated on in my replies to Isusr, niplav, and Aristotelis Kostelenos) and onto my perceived "deficits." You should be able to find the information you requested there, and if it's not too much trouble, please don't advise people with disabilities to seek treatment without first asking if they already have.

Solidarity, my brother in arms!

The sequences didn't help me much because I already know most of it, so they're still extremely tedious to fish through looking for the tidbits I don't already got.

This place tiresome and not made for us. Ugh... maybe we can make a difference here somehow.

Thanks. That's actually the technique that made me feel like the burden of membership might be manageable this time around... (minus the "reading level" thing. -_-; I went to college when I was 17 and wrote a philo paper that got accused of plagiarism with no plagiaree. My problem is working memory, and most of the content here is inefficient AF because complexification is a karma attractor.)

What's better than a language model, though, is a good autostructure. I like Artificially Aware on YouTube (https://youtu.be/-P97YNmTUL4). It makes esoteric info really accessible, and all you have to do is wish for it. I actually forgot all about these comments until I saw the video on The Bell Curve and remembered that I walked away from a half-written response.

I don't really know what I'm doing here, honestly. I just follow research compulsions 90% of the time and see where it leads me. 

For future reference, the correct answer to my question was probably this: https://www.lesswrong.com/tags/all

I love a good index.

I've been lurking for years. I'm a lifelong rationalist who was hesitant to join because I didn't like HPMOR. (Didn't have a problem with the methods of rationality; I just didn't like how the characters' personalities changed, and I didn't find them relatable anymore.) I finally signed up due to an irrepressible urge to upvote a particular comment I really liked.

I struggle with LW content, tbh. It takes so long to translate it into something readable, something that isn't too littered with jargon and self-reference to be understandable for a generalist with ADHD. By the time I've spent 3 hours doing that for any given "8 minute" article, I'm typically left thinking, "No shit, Sherlock. Thanks for wasting another 3 hours of my life on your need to prove your academic worth to a community of people who talk like they still think IQ is an accurate way to assess intelligence."

AI helps, but still, it's just... ugh. How do I find the good shit? I want to LEARN MORE FASTER BETTER. 

Halp, pls.
