why gives purpose i think people without adhd can look past that and not care  for me i have to know why if there is no reason there is no foreseeable purpose if there is no purpose then it is pointless there is no point in pointless tasks or at least that’s the train of thought my brain goes through  logically i can say that there probably is a purpose for it and that the person teaching me doesn’t know but that’s not good enough for my adhd brain so here comes cognitive dissonance and paralysis the worst part is i can’t hijack my brain by saying to use your example why i need to pout 1 cup of silicone along the rollers when the gauge rises above 24 is because that’s what i am paid to do getting paid literally isn’t a good enough reason for my brain annoying  video games especially mmorpgs have a clear point to quests and goals bigger picture the victory or failure makes no change to the real world but you have a why and with a why comes purpose knowing this helped me come to terms with the idea of needing to gamify tasks i usually don’t care to do
