    I dont entirely disagree but unravelling the ego I think is a somewhat meaningless - I think you are referring to the inertia of your current state, which is largely emotional.

    I'm not saying getting up off your ass. I'm saying that relative to each individual there is a first step, that might be "thinking about planning about getting off your ass" and then graduating to "planning to get off your ass" and graduating to "getting off your ass".

    Different people are at different stages, but accepting that ADHD is a disorder of emotional regulation, that can be changed with the correct approach.

      Our Eagles are conditioned to be validated and caught up in consumerism much worse. Nowadays with social media I have to disagree that unraveling the ego is meaningless because quite honestly, if I'm being honest, it's the ego that gets in the way of all forms of organizing

      I do believe that in order to snap out of this you just need to kind of start getting yourself to work me. Personally. I use a Kobe mentality to the things I aspire to do. It's very hard

      But I do believe the ego unraveling is extremely essential to inner growth. How can you help anyone? How can you help the front line if you are not at peace with yourself? Think about it. This is one of the main issues we have in organizing spaces or just generally today throughout the world, we we all came from some form of generational trauma and that requires healing and that is done through unraveling

          Ego

          Are you trying to be a jerk? As a matter of fact, do you even have ADHD?

            Lose the ad hominem, please. That's jerk behavior!

            Therapy is, while obviously less consistently delivered, more effective over time (ie. The rest of your life) than meds.

            When you start to get older, you will realise that your dependence on meds is a band-aid.

            Ideally a combination is suitable, with an eye to moving away from medical independence.
