Time Pressure as an ADHD Tool?

Hey everyone, do you know this too, that it can be incredibly helpful to decide very clearly in advance how many minutes you want to spend on a task, set a timer, and then just do it, whether it is something work related or something very everyday like showering or cooking.

I remember that I used to struggle a lot with this because the thought immediately came up that time pressure creates too much pressure and that pressure is never good.

But I have noticed for myself, maybe also because of my ADHD brain, that this helps me a lot and interestingly it almost always works out to the second when I decide on the time beforehand.

And the feeling afterwards honestly feels like a small dopamine hit for me.
