The weirdest part of ADHD for me isn’t starting tasks - it’s switching between them

Something I’ve noticed about my ADHD is that starting a task isn’t always the hardest part.

Sometimes the real problem is switching.

I can be working on something and think, “I’ll just check this quickly,” and suddenly 30–40 minutes are gone. Other times I know I need to leave the house soon, but the time before that somehow just disappears and I end up rushing anyway.

It feels like my brain has trouble with the transition moments, not just the tasks themselves.

I’ve been trying small things to make those transitions smoother - like giving myself a little buffer before I have to leave or trying to make the next step more visible so I don’t have to keep everything in my head.

It’s strange because from the outside it probably just looks like poor time management, but internally it feels more like my sense of time gets… fuzzy.
