Hi, hope you're well ! :)


Sorry this is a bit of a messy video ! I didn't explain the concept very well in the video, but I'll try better here :)
So, body doubling is a technique mostly used with people with ADHD, which is something that I don't personally have, but I still find it really helpful when my mental illness is really difficult to manage. The idea is basically that 'a body double is someone who sits with a person with ADHD as he tackles tasks that might be difficult to complete alone. Many people with ADHD find it easier to stay focused on housework, homework, bill paying, and other tasks when someone else is around to keep them company.'
So I thought we'd do laundry together !
This video was inspired by this one that really helps me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsQQ92VzG0I&t=2460s
