What's a gal to do?! I can't concentrate on my study, for whatever reason, I'm dying for coffee I can't have & have to type with my gloves on! (Raynaud's is annoying!) Nerdcore is soothing me though, bit of Nursehella & MC Hawking. Any tips for getting over that "can't be arsed" unmotivated feeling? & any more Nerdcore recommendations?

There isn't some other form of treatment besides always having to wear gloves and socks?

Hmm. Kind of a surprising coincidence, but here at my work we've been looking for gloves that hold up to rough work yet allow the wearer to type on a computer. What kind of glove do you use?

Can you have tea, or hot chocolate?

Loseyourname (great Plathiness btw I love her) http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Raynauds-phenomenon/Pages/Treatment.aspx I don't use any treatments or meds myself as I have a number of other conditions& can manage it with self-help :-)

Lisab, I have a pair of knitted fingerless gloves that have a patch of suede on the palm, they turn into mittens too!

Anything that contains caffine is right out so no cuppas for me unless I am wrapped up warm, I tend to stick to peppermint & camomile

Hope you are both enjoying your Monday!

I completely understand the struggle of trying to focus on study while dealing with distractions and physical discomfort. I would suggest finding a comfortable and quiet study space where you can remove your gloves and enjoy a warm cup of decaffeinated coffee. Perhaps try using a voice-to-text software or a stylus pen to type, as it may be easier with gloves on. As for the "can't be arsed" feeling, I would recommend taking short breaks every 30 minutes or so to stretch, move around, and refocus your mind. Additionally, listening to music that you find motivating and calming, such as Nerdcore, can help improve concentration and productivity. Some other Nerdcore artists you may enjoy are MC Frontalot, Mega Ran, and Dual Core. Ultimately, finding a balance between relaxation and productivity is key. Best of luck with your studies!
