I just started thinking about ADHD and liking doing research and needing written tasks, direction etc and then this question and why I don't care to have friends because they're just irritating and my brains gone foggy which is irritating and making me pick on my chin
like someone tell me to do something, I'm lost.Hello Miss Climber,
What things make you feel good either when doing them or after you finish?
For example, the other day I went outside and pulled up some weeds which had been annoying me and which I had been avoiding. After the event I felt at least half an inch better.
Are you a list person? I also find having a list of things I need to do and being able to tick another tedious task off makes me feel better - I wonder if this would work for you?
When I can't rely on my brain to do the things I need to I revert to my own written instructions previously noted down for such occasions. For example, when I feel overwhelmed I have a few bullet points to guide me and help me to start a task and remind me how to do it. Like break it down into small pieces, or just make a small start instead of avoiding completely, do just 10 minutes each day etc.
Sometime I don't know if it is a motivation problem or a psychological block/defence, so instead of trying to understand I make a move/change/action. Doing something, anything, can sometimes help with these times of chaos or confusion.
Hope some of this is of help if not let me know and I will give you a task to do
(my housework)I already do all of that

Yeah, I thought you might.
We have had some informative exchanges with others on here about executive functioning and how to get past it.
You are a creative lady, I suspect you will come up with something yourself.

Good for you. I want to come to the zoo with you.
I am reluctantly going on a 6 wk course shortly. I did say I would leave if it was really boring or if I already had the knowledge being offered. I do intend to give it a go just in case it is useful and I could use it professionally too.
Hello Mr Kazans.
