One resource I can recommend is Dr K on YouTube. He runs a channel called Healthy Gamer, and while his community is focused on gaming and gaming-related mental health issues, I think it's still pretty solid material even if you're not into games at all. For what it's worth, the extent that he'll do anything gaming-related in his videos is maybe make one or two gaming references per video, at most.
He goes really in depth into the psychology and neurology of various conditions and provides useful advice on how to mitigate those issues, yourself. He also does some really interesting talks and interviews with streamers and other content creators. He also usually provides links to different sorts of resources and further reading for different subjects, too. Definitely worth checking out, IMO. https://www.youtube.com/@HealthyGamerGG
Sweet, thanks! I'm a casual gamer, but that sounds like a great resource. I'll check it out.
Even just having reminders or something to ground me in the meantime will really help I think.
