    That’s the sensible thing to do. You can’t do everything. So if you’re going to fail anyway, you might as well do it lying down.

      What a terrible way to think. How about not trying to do everything all at once, but one thing at a time and enjoying it?

        I agree with you, you need to take manageable bites to even begin to get a grip on executive dysfunction. The downvotes seem extreme.

        1% more each day every day, baby.

          The downvotes are because we aren’t here to be critisized for our way of doing things. If that’s what we wanted, we’d have went to our very own parents. That energy isn’t well received here, obviously.

            I don’t see a critic, I see someone trying to help.

            At some point you need to choose agency and be your own parent. It takes a horrific amount of work and you need to choose agency like every fucking nanosecond which is exhausting but it’s already exhausting and horrific being depressed and screaming at yourself to stop staring at your phone and do something, anything, please, so you might as well get up and do five push-ups so you can say you moved your life 1% forward that day.

            A defeatist mindset only leads to weaponizing ones incompetence, which is cancerous.

              So like, we’re in adhd memes tho not… life skills advice. We totally know. And the context of where we are is important context mr helpful likely missed. It’s fine, no one is mad, we’re all adults. Sometimes people miss what comm they’re commenting in. Since that is the case, perhaps you can see how OPs unasked for, and (quite frankly) ridiculously ignorant advice, here, is unwarranted and outright disliked?

              Again, we’re adults, talking about something we have been dealing with our whole lives. Capice?

                You might know, the next one might think “oh, so that is the way”.

                  Lol where the hell did you guys come from and how soon till you leave? Cuz i keep trying to be nice and it seems like it is only inviting more ridiculous people to show their asses like a kid in their favorite underpants.

                  I’m hope that you take this comment as a literal lesson I’m teaching you, for having the audacity to lecture me on something thing you know capital n Nothing about.

                  Now please, if you would, kindly “oh that is the way” yourself to the door.

                  Some people. Christ

              If “what a terrible way to think” isn’t criticism to you, then let me not critisize your opinion and say that it sucks.

              Have a good day.

    Anyone want to get into woodworking or smithing? I’ve got an idea, let’s veg out on the sofa doing nothing while we decide which would be a better use of our time.
