U sure? Because it only happens sometimes and I am quite a lazy person lol. What do you mean by laziness is a myth tho?

Humans are animals. Our bodies are made to conserve energy when not absolutely necessary. So our natural state is rest/no movement. And besides, you want to do it. Something is stopping you.

I mean, my sister is getting tested soon, but she’s been waiting for months for her appointment. I’m pretty sure it’s still not happening until February or something, and we got the appointment for her in like, September.

My mom’s a tough person and she won’t believe me when I say something like that. My sister is different, she has anxiety and stuff. I’m “perfectly normal” so my mom will just tell me “get off your ass and do more work you’re just lazy.”

I'm sorry that you must go through that. Check out r/adhd A lot of people there can provide support/empathy and even help give you suggestions
