Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four thinking about it.

I really should sharpen this axe...

Using timers really helped me. "Ugh those dishes will take HOOURRSSSAAA"

I do themband time it and it was 2 minutes. still hard to trick myself every time.

that yellow area is a bit too big

And maybe a new handle, since I'm in the shed anyway.

Was that lightbulb always crooked?

Only four?

the fucking dishes and the fucking laundry

Recently begun medication and am able to skip the entirety of the green, now I have hours where there is nothing that needs doing.

How do normal people deal with this.

• thinking about something

+1 for the magic pill

I dunno about normal people, but I get bored, and start creating hundreds of new things that need doing 😥

Start more hobbies

🟥 Time spent actually doing it

I'm already maxed out and still waiting for that effect :(

Why would you do the things that need doing on the promise of dopamine at the end, when you could instead do something else entirely with instant gratification?

Are you on the one that has a building effect?

Oto-something?

Elvanse here.

used ritalin for years and now am on Elvanse since January. so, i feel that it helps, bit only retrospective... like "yeah the last two weeks i was more likely to get something done". i heard that it is normal to sense when the effect starts and fades in the evening, that i don't have at all.
