Being told you don’t know how to do shit

Because I don’t like to do dishes or laundry all the time. It actually feels overwhelming for me, especially when there’s a huge pile or stacks of dishes. I feel like everyone should wash their own dish when they’re done using it. Am I crazy or what?

I struggle with laundry, cooking and cleaning the dishes. I don’t want to do them, it’s not that I can’t, I’d just prefer to do other things. Then, when I’m down to one clean pair of pants, I wash everything And feel overwhelmed. I swear that I won’t let it pile up again but I know I’m lying.

Struggling with this myself

I highly recommend a book called “how to keep house while drowning”— it’s designed for ADHDers like us and has helped me better divide work and manage expectations with my partner who also has ADHD

I struggle with that too, but not like that. I am too laid back when laundry and dishes are en route so that it piles up and I get overwhelmed. I try to be strict with myself before It piles up, but not having much success there yet. It will come, I will find some strategy that works some day. Definitely not giving up!
