on the one hand they have my ADHD bang to rights, and on the other hand they... don't.
"Many with ADHD are motivated to first fulfill urgent and unimportant tasks such as responding to the requests of others, because someone else’s sense of urgency seems more important than their own needs. Also, doing something for someone else can lead to quick positive feedback and provide a welcome break from what may be a stressful task. The Eisenhower matrix prioritizes what’s most important instead of what’s most immediately gratifying."
Well yes and no, my neurotypical friend. It's NOT even vaguely about gratifying, it's that there's someone who NEEDS me to solve math problems or who NEEDS me to help them in the kitchen or who NEEDS me to work overtime hauling stuff in a warehouse or who NEEDS me to pay rent which they've just increased etc, etc, etc. I am trying to survive, not to surf waves of serotonin here.
