And what REALLY sucks, at least for me, is when you FINALLY get yourself to get up and do the million things you've been putting off, spend hours hyperfixating on it and get everything d*mn near perfect, tell yourself you'll keep up on it, you blink and next thing you know it's the next month and everything is right back where it was needing to be done plus more.
I'm actually working on this rn with a therapist. It made me realize that I always underestimated the energy it takes when I get hyperfixated on a task. That it's understandable that I become weary of doing that task again because I'm afraid I'll get stuck in a hyper focus and won't stop for hours or until it's perfectly executed. It caused me to become absolutely motionless for over a year. No more doing dishes, because I always ended up doing the entire kitchen. No more shopping essentials, because I end up looking all options up and comparing everything to each other to find the best products for the most reasonable price. No more showering, because I would get stuck in thoughts for over an hour. We're now addressing this by slowly setting reasonable goals. For example, to start again with cleaning my house on the regular, I now try to do chores 5 times a week for at least 15 minutes after dinner. But to prevent myself from burning myself out, I stop after 30 minutes. It's a slow process, but I'm getting there. What I'm trying to share though, is that I think it sounds extremely valid you can't keep up with doing your tasks on a regular if that means you spent hours hyperfocusing on it
Yess! I will be lying on my bed for hours with all the things i need to be doing all around me but i just cant physically and mentally get myself to do it and then i get called Lazy and incompetent. which really brings me down. Its the same with all my coursework i will just stare at it and not do any of it and then i hand it in weeks late
it sucks cause I'm scared to let people down too, and they think i'm so smart but even if i am that doesn't mean i can opt out of being disabled y'know?
So I’m here in bed knowing I have to decorate before Halloween is over, paperwork before the timeline is over, but hey tomorrow is another day I’m retired. Never procrastinated more. At least when I worked I had somewhere to b.
me with two massive projects due later today (currently just after midnight for me) that are taking so freaking long that I just catch myself staring into space because I'm so overwhelmed,,,help 😂
My current mood every single day 24/7. My executive function is mid but like…I’m so done with life. Like I can get shit done well but part of me really doesn’t want to. Cue procrastination and mental exhaustion.
I did not sleep last night, not cause of stress, not cause of any outside factors, my body just said no. Adhd can really be a butthole when it messes with the sleep schedule
Exhausted but overstimulated, anxious about getting things done but paralyzed by that anxiety. Sunday vibes for me for sure. Why I try to leave Sunday as my veg/binge & self care day (& nothing else) if & when possible. ❤
This is me, right now, in life. My anxiety levels are at an all-time high. I'm getting between 4-6 hrs of sleep a night. I'm constantly exhausted, but I'm still going to work and busting my a** for a company that doesn't appreciate its people. On days off and after work, I can't seem to get anything done at home or for school. So thankful Penn Foster High School is an online, self-pased program.
I couldn't do this in my bed. Before I moved out and had my own space, I sat on my bed sometimes, even had school work spread out. But it was ON my bed. Never IN my bed. My bed is sacred. It's for sleep and relaxing and dreams. No stress infiltrated thing will ever get near! Nope. It's only happening in my couch😂
I'm literally standing at my kitchen sink right now cuz i need to do dishes 😂 but i do have chicken cooking in the oven, already cooked burgers, got dressed (kinda) watched a short movie, made coffee, (and actually drank it haha) but i haven't eaten yet, i need to make my work lunch for tomorrow and get a shower. And the mold from our kitchen backsplash(that we are trying to get fixed) is giving me a headache which dulls my energy 🤦♀️ Day in the life lol
hey you, this is exactly the situation I'm in at the moment. Wich realy sucks, because I so often just feel like a failure and lazy. Thank you so much for sharing this I feel a bit less alone...
I'm making homework, math😔 And i now i said to my self only five minutes, i think that i'm now saying oke only 15 min😅 Normally i will say he don't look if you're homework is finsed but i'm the only one who need To show and he also wirhte it in his agenda😔 Btw i come from the Netherlands so my engels is not very good sorry about that
I can get through the day ok, but when I’m lying in bed ready to go to sleep, that’s when I remember about all the super important tasks that are way overdue 😣
I have not been diagnosed with ADHD but this is one example of how I feel often when overwhelmed and I never understood why I felt that way and why I just sat there knowing o was overwhelmed and had plenty to do. Now that my daughter has been diagnosed and I am seeing a lot of me in her, I am starting to understand more and help her find ways to cope with it as well!
I’ve had sleep issues since I was an infant and what helps me sleep when I need to get rest is telling myself to stay awake. I pretend like my alarm clock just went off 😅

omg THIS!
@@olivialutfallah literally me last night

The title is too relatable ❤

Not me literally doing that right now 😭
(Also knowing it’ll only take me 5-10 minutes)
Hi! It's been an hour. Jump up! Go do the thing! 😊

Yess!

Real 😭
That's me every day I can never bring myself to do my chores or homework
Same it just seems so insurmountable but I can’t bring myself to do it or focus
Felt deep in my bones
it sucks cause I'm scared to let people down too, and they think i'm so smart but even if i am that doesn't mean i can opt out of being disabled y'know?
I dont have adhd but I procrasinate a lot :(
Its getting better though,Im working on it !
I'm literally in that girllllll i can't explain how i feel it's my precious teenage years that I am wasting i am just done right now
It takes me 30min to just read a couple of pages that’s why I just watch RUclips instead of doing tasks
Erm… tottaly doing my reading assignment and not just watching Olivia and eating goldfish….
I've been like this for 4 going on 5 days. I am so exhausted, but my mind just won't turn down or off to get any rest...
So I’m here in bed knowing I have to decorate before Halloween is over, paperwork before the timeline is over, but hey tomorrow is another day I’m retired. Never procrastinated more. At least when I worked I had somewhere to b.
me rn
I feel you 🥲
… and playing in the background (?)…
"Where is my mind?".
All too appropriate.
🥺
I’m supposed to be doing my laundry right now, instead i’m binge watching all your videos😅

Life hack
There’s nothing to do when your ding nothing
me with two massive projects due later today (currently just after midnight for me) that are taking so freaking long that I just catch myself staring into space because I'm so overwhelmed,,,help 😂
My current mood every single day 24/7. My executive function is mid but like…I’m so done with life. Like I can get shit done well but part of me really doesn’t want to. Cue procrastination and mental exhaustion.
But when i start working on something i like, i obsess! For 16 hours
And this is why it is soooooo hard to keep going. I really sometimes do think it would be easier to give up
I did not sleep last night, not cause of stress, not cause of any outside factors, my body just said no. Adhd can really be a butthole when it messes with the sleep schedule
I do 1 thing each day. 😊
It's been 11 months.... Hopefully someday.
That's from Notting Hill! 🥰
I’m doing this rn 😭😭🫠
Same bro 😭😭
@@Theatre-FTW 😭😭
I’m currently procrastinating on a project I have due tomorrow please help.😃
❤❤😢 it's ruff being cray-cray.... I hate it here 😅🫂💯
....finally pass out only to jump up 2-3 hours later
What song is playing in the background?
Totally relate to this. Being overtired is such a weird feeling
....sometimes I procrastinate just so things will pile up and create the stress I hate.
Me with my alarm going off every 15 minutes today because it's the only way I can get motivated.
Very relatable, only difference I am a guy... 😮😊
Anxiety really feels like it ramps up my ADHD some days and I feel paralyzed.
This is me like everyday but I listen to the 8D Audio (it helps me)

So true. Reason for sleep deprivation

Thank you so much for sharing this

You are an adorable girl. I'm learning how to be a better old man and grandpa from You. Rock On

Btw i come from the Netherlands so my engels is not very good sorry about that
I can get through the day ok, but when I’m lying in bed ready to go to sleep, that’s when I remember about all the super important tasks that are way overdue 😣
I can completely relate to this. I am the same way. It helps 2 know I am not alone.
Wish I could break out of it.
OMG I’m doing that now!
I have not been diagnosed with ADHD but this is one example of how I feel often when overwhelmed and I never understood why I felt that way and why I just sat there knowing o was overwhelmed and had plenty to do. Now that my daughter has been diagnosed and I am seeing a lot of me in her, I am starting to understand more and help her find ways to cope with it as well!
