I wish i could start literally anything at all. I cant even enjoy video games half the time, ill just sit there with steam open and watch youtube or anime.

    You can start YouTube or anime, though?

    Do you really not get how actively playing a video game requires more executive functioning than hitting a video play button?

    Sure, I guess so. But here you are saying "I wish I could start literally anything at all", and then you immediately talk about literally starting something. You clearly can start some things. I don't think that watching anime and YouTube is time wasted.

    I’m not the original commenter, I’m just skeptical that someone can’t see the difference in cognitive effort required for the two things.

    Washing the dishes and running a marathon are both starting things, so if you can do one you should clearly be able to do the other, right?
