i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.
What I mean when I do not control the hyperfixation.
Reblog to save a life
First you procrastinate on the task because it is not a big enough deal to get done urgently. Then you procrastinate on the task because it has become such a big deal that doing it is overwhelming. You would think that this implies a middle point where it is just big enough of a deal to get done easily, however the inherent perversity of the universe's causal geometry prevents this
Hey btw, here's a piece of life advice:
If you know what you'd have to do to solve a problem, but you just don't want to do it, your main problem isn't the problem itself. Your problem is figuring out how to get yourself to do the solution.
If your problem is not eating enough vegetables, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make vegetables stop being yucky". If your problem is not getting enough exercise, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make exercise stop sucking ass". You're not supposed to just be doing things that are awful and suck all the time forever, you're supposed to figure out how to make it stop being so awful all the time.
I used to hate wearing sunscreen because it's sticky and slimy and disgusting and it feels bad and it smells bad, so I neglected to wear it even if I needed to. Then I found one that isn't like that, and doesn't smell and feel gross. Problem solved.
There is no correct way to live that's just supposed to suck and feel bad all the time. You're allowed to figure out how to make it not suck so bad.

hey remember when anon asked me if i had any resources on handling the drawing process with ADHD that were similar to stimuwrite and i said nah unfortunately not and then proceeded to badly explain my own copes with the process
the heavens have parted and the resources have fallen into my lap thanks to @justmenoworries reblogging this (thanks pal <3)
though I do see ONE that isn’t mentioned here that I just thought of, and it’s a simple motto that I learned ages ago and have tried to live by since-
The time will pass anyway.
Worried about how much time it will take to learn to draw, write, or pick up any sort of skill that you’re really interested in? Concerned that you’re not ready to take on that project you really want to do because you don’t feel like you’re “good enough yet” to Do The Thing? Borrowing too much grief from the future as you worry you may fail and all your efforts might some day feel like a ‘waste of time’?
The time will pass anyway.
the idealized version of my tomorrow self will fix this
not again
Sorry my posts haven't been as frequent or funny as usual. It's because I'm eating well, sleeping regularly, and exercising
is that simple task bothering you queen
If the right way is too hard, fuck it. Do it the wrong way.
Folding clothes keeps you from getting the laundry done? Stop folding clothes. Put a basket in your room and throw your unfolded clean stuff into it right out of the dryer, it's fine.
Rinsing dishes off keeps you from loading the dishwasher? Load them dirty and run it twice.
Chopping onions keeps you from making yourself dinner? Buy the freezer bags of chopped onions.
You forget to take your meds and don't want to get out of bed to get them? Start putting them next to the bed.
Can't keep up with the dishes? Get paper plates. Worried about environment impact? Order biodegradable ones online if your local store doesn't have one.
Make the task easier. Put things where you use them instead of where they "go." Eliminate the steps that keep you from finishing the task. Eliminate the task that is stressing you out.
Do it the "wrong" way. It's literally fine.
This is huge. I have been working on this for years with great success.
If the system doesn’t work for you and you’re the only one who uses it, DON’T CHANGE YOURSELF, CHANGE THE SYSTEM.
It’s not the wrong way if it works.
i have neither a good imagination nor aphantasia, but a secret third thing
Pros of hyperfixiation:
Happy!
Art ideas
Life is good
Cons of hyperfixiation:
I am going to blow up
All my art is of the same guy
If I don't think about this 24/7 I get violent
Basically
the cool thing about emails is that if you don't look at them they can't hurt you. if you just don't open your email, the people trying to harm you with the emails can't get you. as long as you don't look, there's no emails.
