ADHD: How to Deal With Procrastination and Win
You are not lazy. You are not unmotivated. You are facing a brain that refuses to start. This happens even when you really want to do the work. It feels like hitting an invisible wall every single time.
What is it?
For those with ADHD, procrastination is not a character flaw. It is a challenge with task initiation. Your brain struggles to bridge the gap between thinking and doing.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
The Science Bit. Your prefrontal cortex is the CEO of your brain. In an ADHD brain, dopamine levels are lower. This makes the reward for starting a task feel very far away. Your amygdala may see a hard task as a threat. This triggers a freeze response that keeps you stuck.
