For decades, I chased in-person belonging through choirs, church groups, and community events. I performed the expected roles while drowning in sensory overload, masking, and accessibility barriers. I have finally stopped forcing it. I am accepting that my true home has always been online.

In the mid-90s, it was the early web and BBS systems where I first found disabled peers. Then came IRC, where hours of text chat kept depression and burnout at bay. Facebook followed in 2006, though I only kept it for family. Twitter became a lifeline later on. A group of us who are blind shared our days in real time. When accessibility was dismantled and third-party apps died, I moved here to Mastodon. Finding this autistic and neurodivergent community has been a revelation.

Online spaces give me information, rhythm, and connection without the unbearable cost of physical navigation and social performance. Realising this brings grief for the years I spent striving to fit a mould that was never built for me. It also brings immense relief. This is not a retreat. It is a return to where I fit.

I am curious if anyone else has reached this same acceptance. I would love to hear how you manage the physical realities of a predominantly online life. I am figuring out how to handle exercise alongside managing meals and daily health routines. I am also very interested to hear if anyone uses body doubling to get these physical tasks done.

Please share your experiences and strategies in the replies.

The same individuals can accomplish more, with less, when we do it *together*. Body doubling is mutual aid in action. Community mutual aid is body doubling scaled up to a neighborhood, or broader.

There are various apps that facilitate body doubling with strangers. These are mostly subject to the same enshittification problems as dating apps, etc. Can we do a body doubling social network using federation between services?

Encore deux séries de lapins de bibliothèque avec le groupe actuel, et je solliciterai au fédivers des franciliennes et franciliens déconcentrés pour #bodyDoubling dans le silence de #BnFTolbiac

#NEET et artistes, freelances et étudiants, qu'un groupe solide se constitue pour avancer chacun de son côté et ensemble.

J'ai un système de navigation à créer, des fichiers à comparer, des données à trier, des papiers à classer. Nous avons le pouvoir de tout faire avancer.

Bon bah j'ai le manifeste.

👥 Body Doubling Apps

You sit alone for two hours and can't start. A friend joins — suddenly you're productive.
It's not coincidence. ADHD brains need external presence to activate dopamine and trigger task initiation.
You don't need a friend in the room. Focusmate, Flown, or any virtual coworking app does the same job.
Solo focus was never the answer. Shared focus is.

Body Doubling wanted? English below
Ich hatte eine schöne internationale Body-Doubling-Runde, wo wir 1x die Woche 5-10 Min gequatscht haben, dann 1h Mikro (& Kamera optional) aus und deep work.
Leider hat die sich aufgelöst - hat jemand Lust? Dann würde ich evtl. selbst eine starten.
——-
Anybody interested in a weekly (no strings!) body doubling session? Mine stopped, but I loved the setup: Check in, banter, mic off and deep work for 1h, check out.

Letztens habe ich hier irgendwo gelesen, dass eine Fediverse-Instanz weggebrochen ist, die gerne für Body-Doubling bzw. das verabreden dazu verwendet wurde.

Der Verein #WohnzimmerNeurodivers bietet dafür eine eigene Plattform inkl. Chat- und Video-Option an.

Habe es selbst noch nicht getestet aber vielleicht kann das ja bei jemandem eine Lücke füllen.

> The YouTube ADHD Love channel creators have an app/service specifically focused on ADHD body doubling

The app is called Dubbii and there's info about it here;

https://www.adhd-love.co.uk/

Sadly it seems to be mobile-only, proprietary, and only available from Goggle Prey Store or on iThings. So not an option for me.

I recently learned that a uni where a friend of mine is working as an adjunct lecturer is experimenting with paying people to body double for students with ADHD, and other conditions it can help with. I want this job!

Body doubling with a friend while they do a job application they've put off for days. There's music to be danced to, but OTOH it's the hottest part of the day. Plus you've got to support your festival crew, and once they've sent this application, they can totally relax and let loose!
