No one in this community wants to hear it, but it is a symptom of personality, and the only way you fix it is with consistent effort to discipline yourself over a long period of time. Therapy is as effective as drugs. It just takes more effort, and people would rather brand themselves as disabled than take small, consistent steps over a long period of time.
I’m going to disagree with you as someone with ADHD who is in therapy and does not take meds
I think it’s a very dangerous thing for you to compare meds with therapy because quite honestly therapy takes years for mental unraveling for you to just come to the conclusion that maybe you need to start applying yourself a little better
ADHD with mental health shortcomings can exacerbate the daily task into it a very arduous process.
While I understand the point of what you are saying and yes it does require some application in order to get the ball rolling, it’s more than just getting up off your ass. It’s unraveling the ego , and why you are there in the first place
I dont entirely disagree but unravelling the ego I think is a somewhat meaningless - I think you are referring to the inertia of your current state, which is largely emotional.
I’m not saying getting up off your ass. I’m saying that relative to each individual there is a first step, that might be “thinking about planning about getting off your ass” and then graduating to “planning to get off your ass” and graduating to “getting off your ass”.
Different people are at different stages, but accepting that ADHD is a disorder of emotional regulation, that can be changed with the correct approach.
Our Eagles are conditioned to be validated and caught up in consumerism much worse. Nowadays with social media I have to disagree that unraveling the ego is meaningless because quite honestly, if I’m being honest, it’s the ego that gets in the way of all forms of organizing
I do believe that in order to snap out of this you just need to kind of start getting yourself to work me. Personally. I use a Kobe mentality to the things I aspire to do. It’s very hard
But I do believe the ego unraveling is extremely essential to inner growth. How can you help anyone? How can you help the front line if you are not at peace with yourself? Think about it. This is one of the main issues we have in organizing spaces or just generally today throughout the world, we we all came from some form of generational trauma and that requires healing and that is done through unraveling
ADHD is a real biological disorder, that is a medical fact. Meds are just another tool to help address the issue. I’m not going to explain or argue about biology.
Can people’s personalities contribute to their problems? Yes absolutely, nobody is arguing that. You’re not wrong about the usefulness of therapy , but that’s a pretty dismissive and rude way to go about it. Nobody here is saying therapy isn’t helpful.
It seems like you just want to pick an imaginary fight with people who are just looking to find a path to improving themselves.
Its a catch all diagnosis for underdeveloped executive functioning. The biology you are talking about is a description of a neurological state.
It does not mean it cannot be developed. It is underdeveloped due to prefrontal cortical issues pertaining to early life experiences which shaped the personality. This is absolutely something thay can be changed.

Old habits. My bad. Corrected. I wish I could burn that word out of my mind
