I haven't been diagnosed with attention deficit anything, but I can really relate to a bunch of things Captain Awkward says in this twitter thread. Starting with "Putting a task on the [to do] list can 'solve' its urgency & I forget," moving on to "I...internalized a fallacy that I was not 'allowed' to do rewarding ambitious enjoyable things until all my 'chores' were done" to "hi to the people who really need an assistant but have no idea how to delegate things to an assistant and/or find the whole assistant thing terrifying."

PS: Also if I try to look at any of the suggested task management systems, I will get sucked into a task of "looking at, but never actually using, task management systems." Or I will decide I need to use ten of them.
