Guess I'm not doing anything until then (and being late)
Is this really an ADHD thing? I'm not diagnosed but I do this constantly. Visiting parents in the evening? Day gone. Errands that will only take me an hour? Day is gone so I guess I'll play video games or something I can hop out of at any time since my day is over.
For me at least, it's that I can't do anything of substance until the scheduled thing is over. I can't even start the video game while waiting because I'm worried I'll get too engrossed and forget about the thing I have to go to later.
I think you summed up how i am in ways i never could
I left work at noon for what I thought was a 1345 appointment an hour away. Turns out I needed to leave before 1345 for what was actually a 1445 appointment. I feel this hard. Day wasted.
Out of the possible outcomes, that one would count as a success for me.
I've been waiting all day today and yesterday for an ikea order that is allegedly arriving yesterday. I want/need to do other things, but I can't help but curl up in bed paralysed stuck in waiting mode.
Actually starting to lose my sanity over here.
I try really hard to make earlier in the day appointments now because of this. Of course once the appointment or whatever it is is done I still don't do anything else with the day because you know what? All that waiting was exhausting and now I'm spent.
Totally get this. No idea why this is. I just feel like I can’t start anything and I am just waiting until the meeting. And everything after the meeting is shot too because then I’ll be at work until like 7-8 pm because I’ll just hyperfocus and not realize how late it is.
