Executive Function vs Executive Dysfunction: Why Your Brain Hits a Wall
You are not lazy. You probably have a brain that wants to move but feels physically stuck. It feels like your internal remote control has dead batteries. Let's look at why this happens to you.
What is it?
Executive function is the command center of your brain. It helps you plan, focus, and finish tasks. Executive dysfunction is when that system breaks down. It makes simple chores feel like climbing a massive mountain.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
The Prefrontal Cortex is the part of the brain that manages your goals. In an ADHD brain, this area often lacks a steady flow of dopamine. This chemical acts like the fuel for your brain's engine. Without enough fuel, the message to start a task never reaches your muscles.
