Talk to your manager: "find me a way not to be interrupted all the time, or multiply my delivery time by 2, as you wish".

Turning slack off is totally an option.




Maybe phrase it more like you’re actively discussing a problem with them instead of making it sound like an ultimatum, but I agree that talking to your manager about this is a good idea. The managers I’ve had have always been fine human beings that cared about my well being as much as my productivity, and OP’s problems include both of these aspects.
