Sometimes, having to start a task can be the hardest and most frustrating thing in the world to me. I often force myself to sit down and start working but I only get irritated until I cry. This is so hard to explain. Part 1 of 4 explaining why this happens + coping tools

An info graphic explaining why it's hard to start tasks with ADHD.

Our inability to start a task is not a character flaw, it's a neurological problem.
The executive functions:
self motivation, needed to start and complete tasks. organizing and prioritizing to decide what tasks to do in what order. impulse control so we don't get sidetracked by the next shiny task. sense of time, to estimate how long tasks will take. Other EFs are emotional regulation and self-monitoring. These executive functions are a collection of tools in our brain. ADHD impacts those tools negatively.

At the bottom is a list how to identify task inertia.
1 you want to do a task but cant 2 knowing the conesquences doesnt help 3 it feels like your body isnt cooperating 4 you can do other things that are fun or: you can't even do fun things 5 you feel burnt out but haven't been overworking 6 feeling anxious knowing you have to do this task later 7 saying i dont know when asked why you didnt do a task

ADHD + Autistic Burnout = FEAR.

a 4 panel comic about momentum:

panel 1: Bex looks happy, she excitedly says to herself, "Oh yeah I'm so excited about this! Now I just have to maintain this momentum!"

Panel 2: Bex stops for a second - anxiety has stricken her. She continues, "...but what if I can't maingain this momentum? What if I lose interest and this becomes a huge chore? What if I get overwhelmed and start to feel anxikous?"

Panel 3: Bex tries to gather herself but her trambling body betrays her true feelings. She asserts, "N-no! It's fine! I feel good about this!"

Panel 4 The final panel is a close-up of Bex's face. She looks stressed. She shouts, "I'm definitely not anxious!!"

Uhh, did I ever post this?

Comic. First panel: Alien says to a brain: hey brain, ready to do some work today? The brain sobs. They then say: We really need to get some work done today, so lets --- gets interrupted by a hissing brain.

The last panel is just a blank stared- alien "okay then"

RIP Shichiro Kobayashi. From Takarajima to Remi to Utena, man can paint a gorgeous background in every anime he's ever worked on.

RT if you hate Waiting Mode. 😭

making plans with ADHD; shows a timeline from 8am to 6pm. Current time is just after 8 am, and plans are at 4pm. everything in between is labeled as "waiting mode" and defined as, "the black void of time between now and the time you have plans where it feels impossible to start, continue, or finish any tasks, so you just wait anxiously or take a nap.

Gender identity is not defined by the physical laws. Of course it is not defined by you either. Only the will of each human being can define it with complete freedom. "Man is condemned to be free". We have to accept that responsibility with suffering and struggling.

let me be clear. if you follow me and you are racist, transphobic, homophobic, misogynist, ableist, or any other flavor of bigot, I WILL block you the moment I find out. I don't fucking care if you "just follow me for D&D." you are not welcome here. when I see you, you're done.
