When you set your mind to something, you are all in. Completely focused on the task, sometimes you forget to take care of yourself. Everything else fades away. You’re on a roll and have the energy of 101 Dalmatians. You’re a productivity Queen (all-genders inclusive)!
And then the crash comes. Followed by guilt, shame, which spirals into a dark hole of despair.
“Why can’t I just be consistent?”
Here’s a wake-up call. Your brain works in a way where the linear 9-5 structure does not work for you. And that’s okay. You’re not broken, it’s a system problem.
What's happening in your nervous system:
The all-or-nothing cycle in AuDHD brains is driven by dopamine dysregulation and what's called an interest-based nervous system. You're not lazy. Your brain needs a task to be engaging and sometimes stressful in order to complete it. AKA you need that dopamine fix, and you need it now. Otherwise your brain and energy is depleted, which leads to executive dysfunction.
The problem is not you. Under capitalism and post-colonization practices these systems are not built to accommodate your functionality. Workplaces, relationships, routines aren't built to accommodate this cycle. So you get shame on top of an already depleted nervous system.
The crash isn't failure. It's biological functionality.
