What is it?

Executive dysfunction is a breakdown in the brain's management system. It affects how you plan, focus, and start tasks. It is like having a desk full of papers with no one to file them.

Signs & Symptoms

Feeling physically unable to get off the couch even when you want to.
The 'Invisible Wall' that stops you from starting a simple chore.
Feeling overwhelmed by small choices that used to be easy.

Why does this happen?

The prefrontal cortex is the boss of your brain. It needs dopamine to send clear signals. When stress goes up, your amygdala takes over and the boss goes offline. This creates the feeling of being frozen.

The Action Plan

Try breaking down your next task like this to overcome the block:
1

Hydrate and Snack

5m

Your brain needs glucose and water to help the boss get back to work.

2

Change the Scenery

2m

Move to a different room or step outside to reset your sensory input.

3

Pick One Tiny Thing

1m

Do one thing that takes less than 60 seconds to build momentum.

Stop fighting your brain.
