I will never want to do work

queenofwands831 July 17th, 2023

I have been privileged enough to be able to take a step back from my full time job and work part time, from home, for myself. I am so happy to no longer have to suffer through feeling like I must mask all the time and all the other fun things that come along with working in a place set up for neurotypical people.


Despite having this good fortune to be able to have control over my work, I still find myself dreading and finding as many ways as possible to avoid it.


Curious if any other adhd-ers struggle with this too.

I can totally hear you there!


I personally work a couple days from home a week, and I try and convince myself that I’m more productive at home, but I’m reality I do everything but the work I’m supposed to be doing.


would loveeee if someone had any ideas on changing that

I am currently in between homes and staying with family so I think not having a dedicated office space is part of the issue at the moment, but even when I was at my previous home I had an office area but it was also used for other activities so I still had this issue.


Once we move into our new home I will have an office and I my plan is to make it solely a space for work so that when I go in there I feel like I am in my role as a “worker” and may find it easier to get in the flow/mindset. I also hope to make it an inviting and enjoyable space to be in.
