This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Meanwhile, my wife enables my executive dysfunction, saying things like "oh, just do it tomorrow." I have to explain to her, if I don't do it now, it won't get done for a month. Saying it out loud like that seems to give me the motivation to do it now.
Hope this works for you for a long time.
Tho it's good that your wife understands the mechanics behind it.
(Or maybe she already does and you maybe sometimes need the 'tomorrow' & she is looking out for you/managing your dysfunction better than you might think?)
Not wanting to be a lazy shit that lets her do all the housework is 99% of my motivation. But when I get the motivation to do the dishes it has to be now or it'll be never.
Omg I get that so much.
Also it's a motivation that doesn't "get old" on it's own (other circumstances would have to change).
Nice!
