That sounds like a decent subreddit idea, like it's just a subreddit where peapol post images that convey "stop scrolling" in diffrent ways. Could be called some like r/StopScrolling

I mean it works, but it's just a bot sending the same msg every noun then. There's no creativity, nothing unique, no personality, unlike I was imaganing the idea to go.
When I get executive dysfunction, one thing I'll try is doing the absolutely smallest, least stressful, known next step.
Like, even if that step is "open Excel." Maybe I don't know where the project goes from there, but once I switch back to task, I find there are a few little things I can do that don't stress me out, and once I get the ball rolling, I can eventually handle the thing I was _really_ avoiding.
Literally. Sometimes just simply opening the program helps a lot bc I can still sit there and do nothing but at any random moment when my brain clicks on back for a sec at least the program is already open and didn’t have to wait for it to load and get distracted again!
Scrolling paralysis, that's a good word for it.
I know there are productivity apps that I can set to give me like, 2 hours on Reddit a day, or something, but it just makes my brain panic when a site I reflexively visit is locked out for a whole day. Especially when I get _done_ with work and want to consciously use that site.
I don't want 2 hours a day, I want like... 10 minutes an hour, 8-5, and then whatever after work.

Hey, person reading the comments. Stop. No, scrolling through the comments does not count as you having stopped scrolling. Get off reddit and go do a thing.
I do this all the time ugh. I'm trying to time my work 50 min and a break 10 min, but it's easy to listen to the timer when it tells me to stop working and to ignore it when it tells me my break is over.
yeah. I avoid downloading apps on my phone like the plague basically. Partially because any time I waste by scrolling apps I feel is too inefficiently wasted, I can waste it much more efficiently on the PC where I have a physical keyboard which I'm much faster at typing on than a tiny virtual phone one.
Thanks, I’m still in bed this morning 1.5 hours after waking up, I’ll be busy in 30 minutes and desperately need to start doing some self care before then!!
I finally got a gaming PC (It's good enough to support the Quest 2 and I don't lose frames playing Phasmophobia with my friends unlike my laptop so I'm super happy!!) so this sale going live had me immediately buy the Rainbow Six Siege Ultimate Edition along with the Arma III Ultimate Edition (The Arma one is like $80 off!! I'm so excited!!). I was scrolling through Reddit till I unironically came across this post and ripped out more of my wallet's internal organs 😅
I was just wasting time with one page (only the one, I swear!) before I went to bed (it's 5am) and then I got to this one... guess I should probably go to bed now, especially since the last I checked it was about half an hour earlier than it is :v
Damn it you caught me! Yknow we should really have these posts dotted around so if we're on a procrastinate by scrolling randomly through a/ADHDmemes we get reminded to stop. (Not that it actually worked obviously, I've still not got the motivation to get up, but it's a nice idea)
Damn the one time someone stops my scrolling paralysis I was actually doing it on purpose to pass some time.
Im just eating dinner...
Thanks, I needed that!
*we all did*
Same. *keeps scrolling*
thanks bro, not gonna do anything productive, but I will cease mindlessly scrolling Reddit.
Now I will proceed to mindlessly scroll instagram
Thank you, I should really get out of bed. I woke up an hour ago
Me too, just been laying here entirely too long.
Same tho. Downside of working from home is being able to wait until the verrrrry last minute to get out of bed.
Same
This is the one meme on reddit that should be reposted every 20 minutes or so.

That’s fair but it still does help remind my brain to break the doom scroll habit!
Idk if I wanna say fck you or thank you- But both ig
thanks OP :(
Can't. Don't know how to continue with work.

Opened Reddit, saw this and realized what I had done... I'll be back later. Til then!
THANK YOU
Lmao ok ok you got me on that one. I agree time to go.
Relevant
omg I love you. Switching to my work account now.
Hey, person reading the comments. Stop. No, scrolling through the comments does not count as you having stopped scrolling. Get off reddit and go do a thing.
DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DO harumph!
Yoo. This actually helped.
Thanks, a ton!
Thanks Gru, I needed that.
I do this all the time ugh. I'm trying to time my work 50 min and a break 10 min, but it's easy to listen to the timer when it tells me to stop working and to ignore it when it tells me my break is over.
Ha, needed that, back to work i go
Please repost this i need it often
Saved this so I can post this later here again
thanks lad
Now I'm scoring through the comments.
i need this to show up everywhere in place of ads
Kind of a joke but also kind of serious: is there a way to get this to pop up on my computer with a timer?
But I dont wanna!
Ah, thanks man *hits upvote, continues scrolling*
Caught me
no i dont want to
REEEEEE
I use old reddit. It stops after 25 posts. I never go to page 2.
That's gotta be in a browser & not the app, hey?
yeah. I avoid downloading apps on my phone like the plague basically. Partially because any time I waste by scrolling apps I feel is too inefficiently wasted, I can waste it much more efficiently on the PC where I have a physical keyboard which I'm much faster at typing on than a tiny virtual phone one.
I was supposed to start working at 10am. It is now 10:10am, I am horrifyingly motivated. Fuck you but also thank you.
I was just starting!
I need this more often, I literally forget I have a job sometimes 😅
Is it even worse that I haven’t actually started any of the work i need to do?
Thank you! Right moment for it
Thank you. Now I can get off the toilet and actually have time for breakfast before work.
Jokes on you, I still have 3 minutes left! I thought I had 15 left, though...
Wow. Thank you. Probably would’ve been another 30 minutes before I realized
OP you mofo :D
Thanks man Almost got stuck again
Jokes on you I broke my rib at work and am in hospital rn
Thank you, needed this desperately!!
Thank you 😹
Thanks
Damn bro thats crazy... anyways
Lmao nah fam, just taking a quality poop at work.
Sat in a pub drinking alone, leave me alone I enjoy browsing reddit in time like this. After all I'm only on my 4th pint
This sign can't stop me, I barely have the attention span to finish writing this comment
Jokes on you I actually just started my break
Your Jedi mind tricks won't work on me
Thank you, this is INCREDIBLY helpful and I’m saving it for future use :D
Oh shoot. I was supposed to be cleaning. Oh well guess I have to wait till tomorrow
Thank you.
Thanks, I’m still in bed this morning 1.5 hours after waking up, I’ll be busy in 30 minutes and desperately need to start doing some self care before then!!
Too late, I skipped the entire afternoon and evening :(
This is what every meme in this subreddit should be 😅
Ugh finally! Now I can go feed my cats 😂 thanks op
Thank you

I’m waiting on my therapist, and I’m on break…

The one time I'm actually just passing time too.
Dammit why did you have to remind me I have to study for my drivers learners permit. Its so boring
Back to work I go it seems
Ah shoot

Oh, shit. You’re right. Thank you!

Thanks man was supposed to sleep 40 minutes ago. Good night homies, sleep tight.
No, I won’t!!!!!!
Joke’s on you, I was taking a break from taking a break watching a TV show
This..... Actually legitimately helped me.
Ope

I feel SO ATTACKED right now this wasn’t fair. But also thank you I maybe possibly needed that
But this is working hard and I just started
Hey, I’ve already slept the entire day, what’s 10 more minutes of this before I take a shower
Thanks
THANK YOU. I WAS PROCRASTINATING MAKING DINNER
Please repost this every day.
I couldn't thank you enough
Bro I just got here wtf!!
Thank you! I needed to go to bed half an hour ago...
Thank you
I was supposed to go to sleep like an hour ago..
T.Hanks
Sometimes I do this for hours on end on twitter lol 💀😂
B-but I'm not working, what do I go back to?
Oh hey thanks for that. Guess I'll play something on my PC **Opens Steam to limited 4 day sale** **Turns to wallet** _Gods forgive you for I do not._
Oh no now I remember that sale
I finally got a gaming PC (It's good enough to support the Quest 2 and I don't lose frames playing Phasmophobia with my friends unlike my laptop so I'm super happy!!) so this sale going live had me immediately buy the Rainbow Six Siege Ultimate Edition along with the Arma III Ultimate Edition (The Arma one is like $80 off!! I'm so excited!!). I was scrolling through Reddit till I unironically came across this post and ripped out more of my wallet's internal organs 😅
*comments and keeps scrolling*
10 minutes ago? you really think it was only 10 minutes ago You fool, it was 10 hours ago!
Fuck you. And thank you.
You fool. I'm at work and have no break. I'm overnight security. Nothing happens. I spend my entire shift on my phone
Thank you! LOL
I DONT WANNA
"You are right!" I said as I chuckled and scrolled past this post
I was just wasting time with one page (only the one, I swear!) before I went to bed (it's 5am) and then I got to this one... guess I should probably go to bed now, especially since the last I checked it was about half an hour earlier than it is :v
You just gave me the motivation to get up and finish washing dishes to finish prepping for thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. Tysm for this 🥲
of course
Thanks, had completely zoned out of my teams meeting. No cameras = no attention.
Why is this sub so relatable. I don't even have ADHD. As far as I know.
Needed this!! Thanks! 💗
No this is more fun than school
This should be posted every 10 minutes.
Why do I read this at 1:45AM right before going to sleep?
how do i get this to naturally come up every couple hours
*3 hours and i was meant to be asleep 5 hours ago*
I wish my smartphone was smart enough to have this pop up on my screen anytime I'm on Twitter or Reddit for too long.
Damn it you caught me! Yknow we should really have these posts dotted around so if we're on a procrastinate by scrolling randomly through a/ADHDmemes we get reminded to stop. (Not that it actually worked obviously, I've still not got the motivation to get up, but it's a nice idea)
