This is the most powerful call to ratio I've ever seen. It's like she's performing an incantation.

Hi I was today years old when I realized some people truly don’t have to think about every single thing they do. They don’t have to have an imaginary set of rules (I’m not allowed to put on my bra until I’ve brushed my teeth) to function.

So if you've ever driven home without paying attention, just magically arrived at home? That's what habits apparently feel like to a lot of people. It stops being thought and choice and it just happens, without any effort. So like in the morning, you can wake up and the next time you have to think about doing something is when you get to the outfit stage or maybe breakfast. But getting up, taking a shower, brushing your teeth, making your bed - all of that just happens without any conscious effort. In fact, /not/ doing it requires conscious effort - choosing to skip making your bed, if it's truly a habit, involves more effort than making it.

But for lots of neurodivergent people that apparently just... Doesnt work? I've made myself coffee every morning for approx 30 years. For the last 20 years, it's been with approximately the same autodrip machine. For the last 12, it's been in the same kitchen. And every morning, I have to pause, add water to the machine, grind coffee, remember where the filters are (even though they have been in the same place for 6 years), calculate how much ground coffee to use, and start the machine. Every morning, making coffee requires 5 distinct steps I have to choose to do and avoid getting distracted while doing.

I keep my house decently clean (ignoring the active crafts pile happening right now in the spare room). Every night, when I go upstairs, I have to notice the socks, grab the socks, take them upstairs, and put them in the laundry hamper. For 12 years I have been doing this and every single time, I have to choose to take the socks upstairs.

I wonder sometimes if ADHD are better at questioning the world because it's harder for us to just do the same things over and over again. Every day, going to work, a little part of me takes the idea of work and goes 'is this worth it? Should I do this today? '. And I think about people who just do the same things over and over, not because they want to but because they always have.

(I am, of course, entirely ignoring the 'go on the internet' habit that /is/ pretty pavlovian at this point)
