ADHD Paralysis

What is it and why does the body do it? It seems like the mind is telling the person to do something but one cannot get themselves to actually do it.

[Here is a video describing what is called ‘The Wall of Awful.”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo08uS904Rg) It’s really good about breaking down what it is and how you can combat it yourself. The wall of awful is the emotional barrier that grows out of repeated failure, preventing us from taking risks and initiating tasks. We just “know” if we do a certain thing, it’s going to end up a certain way, because life is hard and I never get a win, so why even try? It feels rational, but it really isn’t. We are perfectly capable, we just have a round about way of getting there, because every single time we have to break through this wall of crap blocking our way. It’s a great video (and channel) to understand exactly what this feeling is in simple terms.

Imagine that same feeling you get that repels you from placing your hand on a hot stove, and apply it to everyday and mundane tasks.

Life is about perspective. Getting diagnosed is truly an event horizon. Once you step over that threshold – the neurodivergent forces encountered will rebuild you anew. Use positivity and let neuro plasticity reign. Reach for the stars and never stop loving yourself. You are a beautiful person – Go get ‘em!

If you mean immediate paralysis is probably because a person with ADHD is dumbfounded by a sea of options that the mind can’t analyze.

is a mixture of ocd and the signature of adhd that is the mind is too overactive for the owner good.
