    Due to my ASD I find myself like this at times, where I struggle to get myself to focus on anything with no immediate stimuli, which are often important things.

    Luckily I managed to stay away from addictive phone games so my wallet is safe, but I end up finding myself lurking here a lot instead, which I’m not entirely sure is much better.

    This is executive dysfunction. Common in ADHD and Childhood CPTSD, but not exclusive.

      I have it and I have it hard. If I didn’t also have random hours of hyper productivity I’d probably already be fired. I have my first therapy appointment in a few weeks, wish me luck!
