Day Thirty-One: Make time for close friends every week.
of life with ADHD — helping a child study for a test, organizing a week’s worth of meals, making sure medication is taken —- often take precedence over a social life. Plus it’s a lot of work to make certain you don’t, forget to send a thank you card, or lose concentration during a conversation.
So don’t throw in the towel! Socializing may never be second nature to you, but you can learn ways to develop meaningful friendships:Movies, concerts, and other outings that require little conversation are less draining than parties, dinners, and other conversation-heavy activities. Vigorous sports, including tennis, racquetball, basketball, and aerobics classes, allow for even less talk, and also give you the opportunity to get some exercise.
There’s also nothing wrong with asking a friend to come along when you have to go to the grocery store or car repair shop. Doing two things at once is an ADHD strength — if you’re short on time, call a friend while attending to something else on your to-do list like doing dishes, walking to an errand, or even commuting on a bus or train to work.
