Nothing I try lasts. I can keep something going for a few days, and then my brain loses the streak. If I miss even one day, that’s it. I feel like a failure, and it takes me a long time to get back to it, sometimes weeks.

Has anyone found a system they can keep going for longer than a week? I’m especially interested in how you handle missing a day without it turning into quitting.

Thanks.

I’ve noticed my days swing between two extremes. Some days I clean the house, sort out paperwork, and get things done quickly without much fuss. Other days my brain just won’t start, and I can spend hours procrastinating instead of doing the thing I know I need to do.

I’m not formally diagnosed yet, so I’m trying to understand whether this is a common pattern with ADHD or something else. Is it normal to have days like this?

I’d like to hear from people with this experience. When you’re stuck on a bad day, what helps you get out of it? And on the good days, do you know what made them good, so you can repeat it? I’m mostly looking for what helps you be consistent, even if the answer is small or imperfect.

Thanks.
