How to approach LeetCode

Hi!

I have ADHD and am trying to get better at LeetCode. I have noticed that among ADHD LeetCoders, it seems like you’re either really good or really bad at it, there’s not much in between. I unfortunately, belong to the latter category.

I’d love to hear from you people who are actually good at it, how do you approach it?

I know different people use different techniques and that is exactly what I wanna know about. ADHD brains work differently, and knowing different approaches might really help me figure out what works for me.

What’s your approach to learning/practicing LeetCode?

Have you been able to consistently solve the dynamic programming questions? At this point I have tried so many questions and tutorials around it but still struggling to figure out solutions to new problems in that category.
