"lazy"

I hate it when people call me lazy.

Look I get it.

I know I might look lazy when I'm lying on my bed scrolling social media when I actually need to do some homework.

But inside my head

I'm in a constantstate of overwhelm.

I know I need to do my homework

I know i need to do the dishes

I know i need to text my friend back.

I know, okay?

I'm burnt out just thinking about all the little things I need to do.

I end up over analysing and overthinking everything.

And I end up in decision paralysis and do nothing.

I know you think ADD means that I shuld be physically hyperactive. I should be able to do all of these things.

But my hyperactivity is internalised.

It's all in my head.

And it causes me a huge amount of anxiety and overwhelm.

So please

Don't call me lazy.

It isn't a choice.
