ill admit these comics make me feel like I have adhd. I actually do a lot but the amount of mental effort I have to put into each thing is massive and I have to put myself on super rails. I basically don't do anything like vacations or planned leasure because prepping for it is just more work and im pretty much constantly tyring to catch up with what I need to do dealing with (usually) the most important things first. I spend ridiculous amounts of time just making sure I pay bills and such.

Well, up to you to decide if pursuing an official diagnosis would help you. For the people who do have it, getting that diagnosis and actually knowing what the hell has been going on this whole time is an enormous relief.

Yeah honestly I have a somewhat challenging situation in life so that could be it and honestly how I do things has advantages that I like (passive thought and investigation of things that later bear some fruit in decision making). I view it as im just someone who likes boring safety, security, and consistency over excitement and highs/lows. So im pretty much constantly working to avoid bad times so im constantly working on something and view myself as behind. I have a bill to pay so im behind because its not paid. If I did not do that then im pretty sure I would always be late. ugh. I just paid my property taxes late. 40-50 dollars wasted. Too many distractions.
