Problems with being productive at home

I'm not sure if this is autism related(am technically undiagnosed atm), but it's always been there. From as far as I can remember. It's like anything that requires effort is incredibly hard. It's like I have to force myself. Pushing through an invisible barrier. When I come back from work im exhausted mentally. This is why I have mostly only worked part time.
Even the journey, using public transport is hard for me. All of it. I feel overly sensitive to everything. Which is why I stay in my room a lot. Even spending time downstairs stresses me out, let alone leaving my house.
I usually shut down when I feel stressed. Stop talking to my parents. Need space. 
Just wanted to see if anyone else experiences something similar? (I am diagnosed with attention deficit disorder)
Thanks, 
Mark

  • There's the paradox for me.  I am that person who wants "shining": it organises my mind and allows me to feel life is in control and yet achieving that is sooo hard as I live with others who don't understand my need for systemisation and routine.  Left entirely to my own devices, I'd have a super organised house and a super organised brain, but the one is contingent on the other.
