special interests -- stuck

NAS69225

Do you ever have days when you just feel tired and just want to sleep rather than enjoying your normal interests?

When you feel stuck and unable to enjoy anything.

  • I did a lot of ironing yesterday. I'm taking today off ... except I have to make dinner. I was going to go for a walk, but decided I'll save my energy to make some nice roast potatoes instead.

    I don't normally want to sleep during the day, but a very strong sense that doing nothing would be good for me is a regular occurrence. I put it down to ADHD: my brain needs a rest from trying (and failing) to do things. If I plan to do nothing, and then I do nothing, then I've successfully executed on my plan! Go me!
