I’ve always found this advice funny. If I do what I hate first thing in the morning, then I won’t get anything else done.
Isn’t this ADHD or am I tripping?
I don’t have adhd. I prefer creating a list and doing the hard thing last, otherwise I’ll be so emotionally drained from doing the hard thing, that I won’t be able to do anything else.
Uhh… that’s not normal dude. That’s exactly how ADHD works, stressful events affect you in ways you can’t handle dealing with other stuff.
That’s also just how stress works.
I really hate this tendency of the internet to pathologize every single human quirk.
Have you ever forgotten someone’s name quickly after you met them? omg you probably have ADHD!
I thought adhd meant that you struggle to get things done and you lose focus? I’m productive. My room is clean and organized/I don’t lose things, I’m not late on things, I plan things out and then execute them. Stressful events are emotionally exhausting for me, but I don’t avoid them. I listen to my energy and take breaks when I need to.
E: I think adhd can be confused with other things like trauma.
A lot of NDs have overlapping symptoms. We also live in a world where we’re forced to adapt, so coping mechanisms and masking developed subconsciously make it even more difficult to really tell what is the underlying cause of some behaviors.
Maybe you have ADHD, maybe you don’t. People are not able to diagnose you based on a single comment. As long as you feel like you’re tackling life well and aren’t constantly struggling, I wouldn’t worry too much.
ADHD doesn’t necessarily mean that you have Executive Disfunction, but they frequently come together. You can have ADHD, and still be highly functional.
That’s exactly how ADHD works
Preferential order of execution isn’t exclusive to ADHD, don’t be silly.

This is such bad advice, if I needed to do what I hate right after getting out of bed, I would never get out of bed
Except if getting out of bed I the thing you like the most.
