    I’ve got a mental list in my head of like 4 things I need to do. 2 are time-sensitive. 2 are things that would make me feel better to do. 2 would improve things.

    I’m scrolling on Lemmy. And adding things to my mental to do list.

      Hard to say if you have 4 or 6 tasks. The 2 time sensitive could easily apply to the other categories keeping it at 4 tasks but it is entirely possible you found 2 more and its 6.

      By now I’m sure you’ve found more anyway :)

      Me with my ahdh friend: let’s order takeout and meet there!

      Result: we each went to a different location, and it turned out we ordered from yet a third location on the other side of town! Luckily, they agreed to stay open until we arrived to pick it up.

    I know we always think about walking as some kind of positive metal health thing but whenever I’ve actually gotten out there for a walk I’ve found it boring unless I’m actually going somewhere in particular. If I’m just wandering I feel like I constantly have to think about where I’m going.

    This is me when I’m trying to figure out what to watch. If it’s a particularly strugglesome day, I can’t get past deciding which app to load on my Roku to start searching for something to watch.

      I feel fortunate that this isn’t a problem for me (yet.) 🏴‍☠ streaming website and Youtube is how I watch things these days. Now, finding something that aligns with my interest(s) that moment, day, or week… That’s a whole other story.

    Okay I call BS, exercise before shower is a no brainer, now which type of exercise or whether to even go, that’s the challenge.

      I’m hot and stinky and sticky and I hate living. I need to take a shower!

      I’m planning on exercising today, I can’t take a shower until I do that

      When should I exercise? I have things to do for work. After I do those things, then!

      oh it’s close to lunch time. I’m going to eat.

      the dishwasher isn’t unloaded. I’ll do that.

      the kitchen rag needs to go to the laundry

      oh I should get my clothes into the washing machine

      And that’s how I’m cleaning the toilets instead of taking a shower and it’s 6pm and I haven’t worked or worked out or showered and fuuuuuuu

      No.
      That’s not how it works for some.

      It’s/it might not the ‘no brainer’, it’s the endless theoretical ifs.
      Eg what if the freshness or coolness makes for a better exercise? What if I wanna smell nice in the next minute? What if I need a quick shower meditation season to calm my nerves to exercise easier/unencumbered?
      All those are useless, but it takes work to go through it.

      Showering after an exercise might be a more or a no-brainer bcs of various direct physical stimuli.

        Or maybe you’re depressed and your brain says a shower is a Reward for going on a walk, but you’re not motivated to go on a walk, so you don’t deserve to waste water on yourself by taking a shower when you’re just going to get dirty again, and now it’s been three weeks and you feel like you need to punish yourself harder for being such a failure and not just going for the goddamn walk.

        Then you finally get off the couch and go for the walk, but it’s not Good Enough for your brain, and now I’m all sweaty and slimy and I still feel like I need to be punished for not just going for a walk earlier, so I absolutely don’t deserve anything nice like a shower.
