Some individuals with AD/HD, especially without hyperactivity, have an activation problem as described by Thomas Brown, Ph.D. in his article AD/HD without Hyperactivity (1993). Rather than a deficit of attention, this means that individuals can’t deploy attention, direct it, or put it in the right place at the right time. He explains that adults who do not have hyperactivity often have severe difficulty activating enough to start a task and sustaining the energy to complete it. This is especially true for low-interest activities. Often it means that they can’t think of what to do so they might not be able to act at all, or, as Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo say in You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?!, they might experience a “paralysis of will” (pg. 65). “The clothes from my trip—a month ago—are just still lying in a heap in the suitcase.” “I spend a lot of time in bed watching TV but my mind isn’t watching TV. I’m thinking about what I should be doing, but I don’t have the energy to do it.”

i think we need to talk about understimulation in adhd more. because whether i like it or not the common person sees me and thinks. oh. ur doing things you like to avoid doing things you don’t like. and it’s really not as simple as that. because things that “i like” can be so subjective. sometimes when i try to do something “i like” i feel nothing. there is no joy, i’m not happy about this in any way, and it feels like such a chore just to try and make myself do it. often times procrastination in adhd isn’t even about being lazy and having fun doing things you enjoy. it’s your mind not letting you do anything. you can’t do the thing you’re putting off and putting it off makes you feel stupid but you can’t do it you just CAN’T. and it’s so frustrating and you end up just doing nothing in particular for hours and hours and you feel like you’re wasting your existence
