That’s the point of deadlines right?
Puh-leaaase, I’ve built a career on procrastinating until the very last minute then burning myself out a day before the deadline by finishing a week’s worth of work in 12 hours!😎 It’s not a pleasant career, nor am I ok, tho’…
Mood. I just have to wait for the hyper focusing to kick in and hope it’s not too late.
Luckily I work for a dev company, so they’re used to people with adhd/autism.
so they’re used to
That’s true. And whether the people up on the hierarchy will use their knowledge to enable your work or fight you is a coin-toss.
Are you a software engineer? Or am I projecting?
Yeah that’s not adhd, that’s a software engineer’s job description ;-;
QA Engineer, same boat:))
I knew it!! Hahaha
This has similar energy to one of the critters from Flintstones.
*shrug* “It’s a living”
You’re not wrong!
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
This is me and I wonder if this is due to some deep seeded insecurity. When I get a week’s worth of work done in a day and it’s just average, I can feel ok about it because damn I did it in a day. But if I spend a week and it’s average then fuck I feel dumb.
Hmm. Yeah. Healthy.
I feel seen.
Me, currently in the fucking around phase of the cycle: I can put off working on my thesis for a couple of hours, I wanna see the new Persona game!
Future me, looking back:
You better start working on your thesis right now or I’ll find where you live and shit your pants.
Do me next. I’m also procrastinating on my thesis. Just can’t get myself to stop worrying and do something
I don’t consent to this 😭

This God guy would be way more relatable if the story was he doinked around for 6 days and then all the sudden scrambled to build earth on day 7.
Well time is infinite and supposedly God has always existed. So technically he procrastinated for infinite time until creating the universe which only took a week. That’s some serious procrastinating.
I have gotten much better about not procrastinating, but it takes me much longer to get anything done if I’m not in the mood to do it. I don’t know if it’s worth it. There’s less guilt I guess.
When I was in junior high there was a project that was worth half my grade that was announced on day 1 and due at the end of the semester. I waited until an hour before it was due to start working on it. I got an A. I can only imagine what I could have done if I had worked on it consistently throughout the semester like a normal person.
From previous experience with both scenarios, probably a B-
I can see myself in this post and I don’t like it.
I mean, I do have some sort of consistent progress, but it’s neither efficient or fast.
