Episode description

Task avoidance is the tendency to delay, resist, or ignore certain tasks. Even when we know they’re important. Kinda sounds like procrastination, doesn't it?

For adults with ADHD, this isn’t about laziness or a lack of willpower. It’s often rooted in how the ADHD brain processes motivation, emotions, and executive functions… ah yes, those skills used to plan, start, and complete tasks).

Join Dave on this short, ADHD-friendly podcast about task avoidance and some strategies and tactics to minimize it in your daily life.
