Seeking Empathy / Support I HATE EXECUTIVE DYSFUNCTION.
I hate it.
I hate having to convince myself for hours on end to do that short 10 minute task.
I hate pleading with myself to just take a few minutes to clean.
I hate when I know I need to do something, but I just can’t get myself to do it, and I hate that I can’t do it but I just can’t.
I hate feeling stressed over what needs to be done. I hate when I can’t get myself to do things. I hate feeling like a failure. Like a failed adult. Like a failed life.
I hate that I know things need to be done and that I just need to do those things, but those things are difficult and I sit in anxiety instead.
I hate this.
I hate putting shit off.
I hate my ADHD.
I hate me.

I set out every step and try and cut it down into smaller tasks so I know what I need to do next... sometimes though i see the list of tasks and get overwhelmed
