ADHD: How to Focus on Reading and Stay Engaged
Reading can feel like a chore when your mind wants to run a race. You might feel like you are staring at a wall of text. It is frustrating to spend an hour on one page. Please know that your brain is simply seeking the fuel it needs. You are not lazy for losing your place. Your brain just has a different way of processing information.
The Action Plan
Add a sensory anchor
Grab a fidget toy or a piece of gum to keep your body busy while your mind reads.
Set a tiny timer
Commit to reading for only five minutes to lower the mental wall.
Use the Fingertip Trace
Move your finger under the words as you read to give your eyes a target.
Summarize out loud
After every page, say one sentence about what happened to lock it into memory.
