I don't know if I'm ADHD or just lazy.

    Do your symptoms significantly negatively impact your life?

    Yes. In so many ways. Just Yesterday I woke up and thought I would pass out. I was wobbly when walking to my fridge to get leftovers. Because I had forgotten to eat over the last... Idk, near 40h

    Oh yeah on a larger scale I failed my exams twice because I spent entire days seated in front of my books and doing anything, including world building the pattern in the wall, instead of learning.

    Yeah, that definitely sounds like ADHD, but a mental health professional could tell you with more certainty than me.

    One hallmark is that stimulants have a different effect on us vs regular people. My discovery of this fact was when my friends group did cocaine. They were all bouncing off the walls and having a great time while I sat in the corner and beat my high score in Snake by 3x my previous best.

    The over-simplified, highly condensed question to find out is this:

    Am i putting this off because i don't feel like doing it right now or do i walk past this everyday and beat myself up about never doing it but no matter how much i want to i just. can't. do it?
