Does anyone else with ADHD have some days where your executive dysfunction is worse than normal, and you end up barely doing anything and feeling like crap? I’m having one of those days, and I’m hoping I’m not alone in experiencing this.

Sometimes feels like these days are the norm to be honest and the days where I can do stuff is the exception to the rule. I’ve managed to up my work productivity massively with meds and habits but man life is still such a challenge. I find I feel suddenly hopeless whenever I have ‘‘free’’ time.

I definitely understand what you mean with that, I try to play games more because it’s always a fun way to spend free time and keep my mind active, but for some reason it can be hard to get started!

It can also be very hard to stop. I just massively fucked up my sleep schedule in 2 days by playing Smash Bros Ultimate campaign mode. I’m not sure how I’ll do anything tomorrow.
