You have never encountered executive dysfunction.

On the contrary, its been one of the bigger issues in my life, I just have such anxiety over spending money on one use things like food that I cant stomach buying frozen pizza

Real ones would just starve.

(Just kidding, money anxiety + executive dysfunction is it's own level of hell. Hope you're doing better now)

It sort of counters itself to some extent for me, in that I can use my aversion to spending much unnecessarily to force myself into doing things, or avoid overindulging in things that my poor self control might otherwise make an issue, it just creates more stress than if I would just function in a more healthy manner.
