I don’t think it’s necessarily your ADHD coz you managed to do the right thing for 2 years!! It’s just life and shit happens to everyone. Emotions, disregulation, coping mechanisms back to food for comfort, not enough energy to fight… and that’s where having systems and routines can save you, but most importantly emotional regulation.

Executive dysfunction, lack of dopamine in the brain, too many steps to a task = brain panics and can’t function, because of the lack of dopamine our brains doing think doing boring things aren’t worth the reward in the end. 😅 our brains aren’t wired to stick to a routine. 😅

I hyperfixate until I’ve achieved the goal I set and then my brain stops doing it. Uni degree fitness. Books to read. Savings. ANYTHING. EVERYTHING. My entire life. Only diagnosed ADHD 3 weeks ago (I’m 50) and now it makes sense.

For me it’s also about capacity. I simply don’t have the energy anymore to work And go to the gym. I really really want to, but I can’t Make myself do it. And the fallout is too much. I hate a big love/hate relationship with being audhd right now
