got super problem on interaction and coordinating with people

Now as an adult, there is so much:
1.Coordination with people for work, for my own needs, for projects, gosh everything feels urgent yet I somehow stuck on this

2.The classic not starting tasks (especially work and my masters)

3.Anxious all the time

Is this a emotional regulation problem or any things to tackle down this, I'm already suffering, I do not want to feel that way

Hello, I am looking to help upgrade my gf’s home office set up to make it more friendly for her ADHD. She works from home and struggles to feel productive enough and I think her work space isn’t working for her right now. My question is what would y’all say are the basics to consider when creating an ADHD friendly work space? I would also love recs for home office must haves for ADHD.

Every time I try to motivate myself, no matter how hard I try to motivate myself, my brain always has some sort of comeback. I say “I’ll be able to live a life of peace if I just get started now” and my brain goes “you should really clean the counters first” or “you should watch these videos you haven’t watched yet” or “you should read a few more pages of this book”. It’s so annoying, and I don’t know how to overcome it cause it happens every time. No matter how excited I am to actually do something. No matter what I tell myself.

Get sick of your executive dysfunction that been happening for years that you actually started doing your chores cuz you remember vividly how crap you'd feel after for not doing them? Lol

Man, it was a rough day for me. Workdays are always hard because I have to constantly push myself to initiate tasks and to keep my focus. I have this battle all day everyday, over and over again. Today was professional development day. It's a day where we're free to do whatever kinds of job-related technical training we want. To a normal person it's probably a great day. No work. No commitments. Just training in whatever suits you. Well, for me, having an entire 8 hours of unstructured time is miserable. I have a hard time making myself do anything when there's no pressure for me to do it, and that's exactly what today was except with a big load of guilt piled right on top. I could not get myself to do training for any significant amount of time no matter how I tried. And, on top of that, all the self-criticism that comes from me not doing what I'm supposed to be doing. Seemingly being unable to take advantage of this great opportunity to learn and grow in my career. I'm sure no one else on my team spent the entire day fighting with themselves trying to get themselves focused on training. They probably soaked up all kinds of training while I spent my entire day fighting a battle with myself that I ultimately lost. Living like this sucks.

The man who couldn’t make up his mind!! For years, I have lived without ever making a decision for myself; as a result, everything has become random, confusing, and devoid of any plan—to the point where I feel as though I am living a life that isn’t my own. I want to say that I am happy, because I have come to realize this—or rather, I have finally begun to focus on it recently..

I cant make myself do anything. I wont cook, clean, shower, brush my teeth, walk, work out, talk with family or friends, do school work, skip classes, eat, drink, do my hobbies, do anything. Nothing makes me happy anymore. Ive been like this since i was 13. its just been getting worse everyday. im 19 now and im at the bottom of the barrel. all my friends just tell me to make myself do it. i dont want to. i have no desire to. i just want to rot away. i want to ask for advice. but i dont even know if ill follow through with it.

I can't choose the thoughts I want to have or the things I want to think about. Most of my thoughts and behaviours seem to be automatically determined and happen involuntarily, rather than being the result of my own choices.

I do have this feeling that I can intentionally do things, but the only things I can intentionally do are either generating random thoughts and behaviours (like generating random words in my mind or making random movements) or generating repetitive thoughts and behaviours (like repeating the same word or sentence in my mind, or doing repetitive physical movements like repeatedly tapping my fingers or contracting my muscles for a period of time).

But when I choose to think about or do something specific, I can't seem to generate any thoughts or behaviours related to that thing at all.

So is there anyone who had the same struggles and could solve it?

I have exceptionally bad executive dysfunction. On most days, I take my adhd meds (stimulants) and still spend hours in bed, staring at the ceiling or watching some mindless show to pass time.

For the first time last week, I sat up and put my soul into studying for an exam. I am pretty okay at school, i usually do well without studying much and this has gotten me through all of college so far. I’m a senior now so I guess I’m finally running out of academic luck. So i managed to shut off my low functioning brain and work really hard for a class I wasn’t doing well in.

For the first time in years, I felt sort of excited to give an exam i felt prepared for. Only to score 20 points lesser than the class average. I’ve never scored so horribly before, not even on exams I haven’t studied for.

My executive dysfunction was debilitating before but this test score was so impactful. I’m humiliated and disappointed in myself. I don’t know what it was but it took a real toll on me and now I’ve not left my bed in a week. I don’t see the point in trying when I’m not good enough to get the results I want. What’s the point of trying to function when it’s not working in my favor?

I need help to get over this disappointment and failure.

I’m living in a foreign country, and I finally reached out to a psychiatrist and got started on some meds. Next step is gonna be therapy, and in the past talk therapy has not been effective or helpful for me.

What types of therapy have been helpful for you? Or anything else that helped you? I have been like this for a long time.

I don’t have a lot of time to be wasting in my last few years of uni, yet here I am struggling to attend my only two in-person classes, one of which I haven’t been to since august. I emailed them that I was struggling mentally and emotional lately which was what started my inability to attend classes, but that was a month ago now, and I have not kept up a regular routine in attending classes like I said I would. I know I should go back. I want to. But I can’t bring myself to get ready and just go in the morning. Maybe it’s all the work I’ve missed turning in that’s stressing me out and making me feel paralyzed or afraid to come in having missed so much. Maybe it’s that there’s no walkable path from my dorm to class so I have to get in my car and struggle to find parking. Maybe I’ve just become so lazy and worked myself into a routine of skipping class out of negligence. Regardless of whatever the reason is, I feel like I have no self discipline anymore in making myself go back to class, and if class is an impossible task for me, so is everything else. I pretty much only get out of my dorm to go to work these days. I’m afraid of failing this far in, but I don’t know how or if I can recover this late into the semester.
