ADHD is a kind of "loss of control over your attention".

Meditation is "getting control over your attention".

So you see the connection there.

I tried, I never managed to do it. With guided meditation, I get angry at the person speaking. ”Holy shit shut up” kind of deal. With anything I have to do by myself, I get extremely self conscious and uncomfortable.

I hate guided meditation too. So much bullshit. And those fucking meditation apps too.

Meditation is a nice fire surrounded by a gigantic cloud of smoke. You gotta experiment and explore and figure it out for yourself to get through the smoke and find the fire.
