Hey now. I wasted my whole day doing pointless stupid shit, so I need those extra hours after midnight to do my pointless stupid shit.

It’s either that or a sudden frantic focus on important tasks but it’s already 1am.

Or an urge to work on something meaningful but you had one singular drink and you can’t focus but have the motivation lol

This is !ADHD@lemmy.world, I kind of figured people would join this sub after a diagnosis.

But also "ooh, shiny" and proceeding to spend a few days obsessed with shiny new things.

But just a few days, and not in a way to be able to capitalise upon it
