    No I’m not trolling you, I literally do not remember what you asked me to do. I don’t care if you asked me 30 seconds ago; I legitimately forgot and I apologize for that.

    Yes I know, I should just knock it out now before I forget again, but my low dopamine levels won’t let me. No I’m not just being lazy; you might as well ask me to move a mountain. That’s just how difficult is for me to complete the most basic of chores. It is completely out of my control, and no amount of Adderall will fix it.

    The wife and I have this argument all the time and it drives me crazy.

    the problems sound similar to “what everyone has” but they arent the same

    Yes everyone struggles motivating themselves to do chores but it’s not the same when you have adhd.

    Yes everyone has trouble concentrating during a boring lecture/lesson but its not the same when you have adhd.

    Yes everyone has the urge to buy stuff they don’t need, but its not the same when you have adhd.
