Thank you Dr. Tracy. In a world that grows more critical of ADHD every day, it's comforting to hear the voices of those that do understand.

As someone with adhd and some more serious difficulties, I’d like to add that the way you think about things also matters. If getting up and moving for 5 minutes seems like it would be like climbing a mountain. Celebrate yourself for climbing a mountain when you are done. Recognise that the difficulty of a task isn’t objective, but subjective, and reward yourself appropriately if a task feels much harder than it would to a typical person. I was thinking of these tasks and small and little and then I never felt satisfied when I completed them because they weren’t meant to be hard, but due to what I was dealing with at the time, they really were, and once I started recognising how much effort I was actually putting into the “small” tasks, I then started to feel rewarded and got momentum.
