Are there any players here with ADHD that might have some advice on how to get in a habit to practice and anything else that becomes harder than it has to be when you have ADHD? And maybe some good places/videos to follow along with?

Think of your guitar as being radio active. The more exposure you have to it the more you will fidget with it be effected by it. Don’t have your only guitar as an artifact that needs the upmost care. Get something you can bang around. Go look at the wear and tear Willie Nelsons, Stevie Ray Vaughans, Kenny Wayne Shepherd’s guitar has. Endeavor to have an instrument with the amount of wear and tear as theirs. Get a traveler brand guitar or something similar. Bring it with you everywhere. Use it to find the notes of the song on the PA system of what ever store you are in or near by radio. Fidget with it.
having one next me to all day has definitely lead to the most practice I’ve ever had. still don’t have any sort of official practice routine though.
Have you ever tried Rocksmith 2014? Can’t vouch for the new one as I haven’t tried it. It’s an absolute power learning tool. The arcade games and jam along modes are easy to overlook but are also really great. Also search for backing tracks on YouTube. Now you shred backing tracks probably has the best visuals
Yep! I played that for a number of years when it first came out and was in the beta program for the new version. New version is garbage.
Thanks for the backing track link, haven’t seen this channel before but it looks fun!
