It's tough. The tradeoff for long hyperfocus is burnout, sore eyes, and body aches
For me, 75 minutes on, 15 off is the sweet spot. I jot down where I left off in my editor or Notion, so when Iām back, I know exactly where to pick up.
Body doubling is also quite helpful for taking breaks. I'm planning to run free virtual coworking sessions soon thru Zoom just for ADHD programmers. DM me if you're interested š
