Ok, I know I often have issues just getting up and starting a task that will only take me 5 minutes in the end. But WHY is that? What happens in my brain?

This topic is very intricate and hard to explain in simple terms - I gave it my best shot, so please excuse the masses of text! Split into 2 images for easier reading

Mad I forgot to add this but this is an explanation in case that the problem source is INERTIA (explained in my previous comic). So, neurological-motivational. ADHD Paralysis can have many other reasons like overwhelm, decision fatigue, not knowing where to start etc!!

Even saying ”I’m so sorry, I completely forgot” sounds marginally better than ” I’m so sorry, I didn’t completely forget, I actually completely remembered. I thought about it the whole time and it stressed me out so much my brain built an insurmountable wall around it.”

This is why I keep blogging chores as I do them so I can show myself that I’ve actually done plenty, and it helps me see that if I show other people, too, whether they interact with those posts or not.

TIL that postural sway is the body’s method of maintaining balance in response to changing external stimulus. More pronounced postural sway, linked to poor balance and coordination, often occurs in people with ADHD, leading to clumsiness and increased potential for injury, particularly in adults, especially in adults with a late-life diagnosis who didn’t have their postural sway corrected as children. 

It’s not just that if you have ADHD you’re not watching where you’re going so you trip and fall or walk into doorways or drop shit, which is what I’d been assuming (tragic backstory associated with this involving parental assumptions about my physical carelessness as a child that we’ll just take as read for now). 

The problem isn’t the deficit in attention. It’s that your body literally doesn’t always know how to stay upright or what parts of you are where in a given space because your amygdala is fucked up. And suddenly the two decades of jokes about bubble wrap are simultaneously not funny anymore and much, much funnier. 

Forty years old and the concussion was probably because I forgot how not to fall down. Sure. Why the fuck not.

Every day with this nonsense, every day. It simultaneously makes everything make sense and makes a farce of it.

Are you telling me that this

This

Is also ADHD?

why does nobody talk about the adhd symptom where I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all… I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again - I would. Garak was right about one thing: a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant. So I will learn to live with it… Because I can live with it… I can live with it… Computer - erase that entire personal log.

Hey OP wtf is this about?

adhd

Idk what person with adhd needs to hear this but the hands on the clock move even when you’re not looking at it
