On a more serious note... try to be a bit kinder to yourself today. You're not lazy, you're doing your damn best.

Can someone explain to me why this is ADHD and not depression? I see this as depression and general life struggles.
I'm coming from /all btw so just curious.
Edit: good explanations. Makes sense now. Pretty sure I don't have ADHD but I do get depressed so comparing the two puts the other into perspective.
There is some overlap, but it’s different in how they play out internally. With depression it’s usually a pack of energy or motivation to do it, whereas with ADHD there may be plenty of energy (and even motivation) but there’s an inability to stop and change gears. There’s usually an internal struggle of “I really need to do that” but being incapable of actually making the decision to do so.
