Obsidian does have that feature, so at least one of those options should work. For me, the best thing about roam is the outline level block references. Having to create a bunch of new atomic notes can start to make things really confusing from an organizational perspective and that is what always bogged me down previously. I can use Roam more like a bullet journal, just open up today's note, throw a header down for whatever meeting I am in and start to capture, then click on the header to get all the previous notes I have taken on that subject.

Note that I am not a researcher, but a dev manager, so most of my note-taking revolves around meeting notes and action items with some research thrown in.

I was diagnosed with ADHD over 20 years ago. I took medicine to help cope it with it for much of my life, by choice, I chose to try to find other remedies on it.

This is certainly not medical advice and is very much anecdotal, but I do find that simple remedies of getting outside, meditating, and exercising regularly help me a lot with managing my negative symptoms. I appreciate your view point and can see your point. My goal was to share something that has anecdotally helped me in the hopes that it might help someone else.

Thanks for taking the time to read and respond, it means a lot.

I am seeing the same thing in my neighborhood in Austin. Whole families out walking around together, people playing in the streets... my wife commented that it's like life slowed down and people are refocusing on just being together again. It's a nice side-effect of this whole situation.

This actually worked for me. I was a habitual marijuana user for several years and it had very adverse effects on my productivity and motivation, but I couldn't seem to quit. Then I did mushrooms with some friends and when I woke up I simply did not have the desire to smoke anymore. It has been around 12 years and I haven't ever picked it back up.
