Does anyone have any advise or tips on how to self motivate? I can hardly get started on a task, let alone stick with it. If I do eventually start something usually there’s not much left of the day. I’ve been on meds for a year, amphetamine salts & Zoloft, without much luck. Perhaps laziness is a condition I have along with my ADD since amphetamines don’t even seem to get me going. Anyway, I was just wondering what methods help others to get motivated? I’ve read in many of the threads on here where people are finding ways out of this Black Hole called ADD. So if you’d care to share some of your successful techniques, I’d appreciate it. Thanks.

I can't give any tips on it because with me it tends to come when it does and I act on it when it's there, being apathetic is part of me and I accept it even though I don't like it, but other members here may have a better answer for you.

im not an expert.
these have worked for me.
Think first of what you want to achieve or do. Break it down into little doable steps. Give yourself time to achieve it. Reward yourself after so many steps. Soon its easy and you reach your goal.
Most important thing is not to give up. ever!
lists are good to.
