MODERATORS
I hit burnout during COVID and once we came out the other end my productivity halted. It's only just began to recover (also newly diagnosed and recently started vyvanse so that's helping).
I benefit from working in an extremely large organisation, and we have an internal ND Peer Support group on our org's Yammer (Viva Engage?). Someone set up a body-double rota, so anyone in the group can go into a shared calendar and sign themselves up to host a Team meeting for "body doubling". You can either sit silently on the call (cams on!) or chitchat if others are okay with it.
A few other things I've done to help keep myself on track in my specific team:
My org is limited to using MS suite of products so there may be other tools that yours will use. For my personal life I use Google Tasks & Habitica.
I'm also in an extremely supportive team where I felt safe to disclose my ND, and appreciate how lucky I am for that. If you can find a confidant in your team/org it may help.
