i love the predictable cycle of "oh no i didnt do a thing im supposed to do" >
"i did a bunch of other tasks instead but not the important one" >
"now im not allowed to feel good about getting those other things done" >
"nor can i start any other new tasks or activities that might make me feel good"

but my brain is desperately scrabbling at minimally engaging distractions like im not even having a good time here procrastinating ðŸ˜
in the end i just have to trick my brain one way or another into starting on Doing The Thing...
(genuinely tho, i think having adhd's pretty great except for when you have to Do The Thing
unfortunately, living in a society means there are many Things to be Done 🫠)
but also from an outsider pov its like watching someone struggle to stand up in ankle deep water like it shouldnt be this hard... 😔
unfortunately i suffered really bad burnout from that time period which has made me a bit afraid of using it again... but im glad its helpful for you!!
