The ADHD urge to lie about why you didn't do something because "my brain refused to start on it" doesn't make sense to a lot of neurotypicals. (social.beaware.live)

I usually just say something like "I did say I was going to do that didn't I, sorry I haven't got to it yet" and people chuckle and move on. YMMV depending on your workplace, obviously.

I'm a fan of the "haven't had a chance yet" language.

If they press me on that, I just tell them what other tasks I have on my list.

Indeed. My priorities are different to your priorities, so your number one priority is just somewhere on my list 🤷
