Good luck on finding new mechanisms! Feels like experimentation & messups, are forever parts of our lives (more so on our quirky brains).

Nighttimes are quiet and calm. Perfect for study. But mayyy mess up sleep schedule quite a bit.
Perhaps its because we are good at "pretending to be focused"?
A lot of people said I give off the impression of a "good student" but deep down I wonder how fast people will figure out.XD
Having dependable/depended friends sure sounds like a good motivation.
I wonder how well this will work for math related subjects. Will definitely do this for Spanish learning though!
A lot of people mentioned Pomodoro timers, I should pick this one back up and use it in non-library studying.(To better motivate myself in different environment.)
As for music cueing, I almost forgot that I had an album that do just this! My mp3 got so many new music over the years, think I lose sight of what the mp3 was intended to do. (Less distraction + nice music to study)
Lastly, 5~4 class a semester? Yeah... feels like I should cut back on how many hard classes I tackle at a time. Currently 3 heavy class + 5 filler class(class that are easy but have homework on a per-week basis)。
Points taken, Thanks for the advice!
When the amount of time management, task tracking, studying guide I found helpful have ADHD labeled on them.... I started to connect past experiences together.
It got to the point where I just need an answer and get this question out of my system.
Got myself evaluated, and the rest is history.
Works... sometimes. Could never really follow it, tried different versions of it(50-10, 40-20, 30-10) and results are mixed.
I would say not to focus too much on the timer , get up and walk around if you feel like so, just remember to not touch addictive stuff in the breaktime (Video game, YT, etc....).
I probably wont try "Video game between sessions", I would just not go back to studying LOL.
As for the take more break & don't expect too much part, I agree! Progress is progress.
