    I feel like this is the part people least understand, focus is not a matter of desire but of ability.

      I was just thinking about this today. Like, I wish I could. I’m trying so hard. I’ve got my focus white noise, I’m not avoiding the work, I’ve taken my meds, I drank water, I got enough sleep, I went for a walk…I did everything I’m supposed to do and my brain is flipping me the bird.
