Here's a little story about losing a battle with ADHD. I have an unreasonable neurosis against using my dishwasher because my building is 50 years old and I keep discovering evidence that nothing in my unit has received maintenance in just as long. It's gross. But today I have a lot of dishes to do. - ThreadSky

Here's a little story about losing a battle with ADHD. I have an unreasonable neurosis against using my dishwasher because my building is 50 years old and I keep discovering evidence that nothing in my unit has received maintenance in just as long. It's gross. But today I have a lot of dishes to do.

I Fought ADHD: I decided to do myself a favor and just use the damn dishwasher, but I thought I'd at least look up how to rinse the filter first in an effort to make it a little less gross. Suddenly I black out.

ADHD Won: When I come to, I'm on my knees and covered in hard water deposits. I'm surrounded by dishwasher parts, having taken the whole thing apart with a screwdriver. I'm scrubbing the inside down with vinegar and a toothbrush.

Treating ADHD can be kinda Sisyphean, you can be soundly medicated and try your hardest to trick yourself into saving time on care tasks and still fail! At least I can use my dishwasher in peace now that I know it's clean.
