I get this like necromantic surge of artifical animation. Like my body just rises off the couch and starts being productive just because im thinking about being productive.

It scares me that its possible neurotypicals are like that all the time. If all i had to do was think about something and wait for it to get done id have a concept of calling someone lazy as well

Holy shit i feel so seen. It actually made me kinda angry at the world for calling me lazy nd disorganized when i realized that they call this shit simple cuz everything is easy for them.

Like getting constantly called a noob by people who play a game. Then finally gettin a chance to play on one of their systems urself. And realizin that all these motherfuckers been playin on easy mode and talkin shit this whole time.

My classic example of this was the fairly oddparents episode where the nerdy kid was only being held back because he couldnt see due to a lack of glasses.

Adhd meds are like glasses for the minds eye of course we cant operate blind we need our glasses

Neurotypicals are definitely not like this all the time, lol. ADHD does not have a monopoly on procrastination.

There’s a difference between procrastinating on things you don’t want to do and procrastinating even the things you desperately want to do, though.
