What is it?
Task paralysis happens when your brain is overwhelmed by too much information or choice. Your brain shuts down as a way to protect itself from stress.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
Your prefrontal cortex handles planning and focus. In ADHD brains, dopamine levels are often lower. When a task feels too big, your amygdala sees it as a threat. This triggers a freeze response like you are facing a predator.
The Action Plan
Breathe deeply
Exhale longer than you inhale. This tells your amygdala that you are safe.
Pick one tiny movement
Just stand up or wiggle your toes to break the physical freeze.
Identify the micro-step
Do not think about the whole project. Just open the laptop or pick up one sock.
Stop fighting your brain.
