Executive Dysfunction Days (lemmy.world)

Does anyone else with ADHD have some days where your executive dysfunction is worse than normal, and you end up barely doing anything and feeling like crap? I'm having one of those days, and I'm hoping I'm not alone in experiencing this.

There's just something about having so much trouble even doing something as basic as dishes on days like this that makes it so easy to feel like a failure. It really sucks, but I'm glad I'm not alone! It's comforting in a weird way to know that other ADHDers have those days too.
