Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Haha this is a scene in inside out 2
this, except it's just an upsetting reminder that the task I'm putting off is not even that hard, yet I'm still not doing it.
Have you ever been tested for ADHD? I don't want to go around diagnosing people but this kind of executive dysfunction is central to it
Do you sometimes agonize on and off for hours over a task that could be done in 30 minutes?
never been diagnosed.
agnizing over tasks happens often, and at the same time I'm not actually bringing any pleasure to myself by avoiding it.
I was diagnosed at 44. Meds have changed my life. Also I'm glad that I am not actually a horrible failure of a human, as I was led to believe my entire life.
I was diagnosed last year. I'm 41. I wondered what the hell was "wrong with me" my entire life. Meds help but this shit sucks.
How do you ignore an elephant?
Is this elephant you speak of in the room with us?
I don’t remember. What do I look like, an elephant?
Do you want an honest answer?
One byte at a time
That would be way too much work
So true - I have a huge overwhelming cleanup job and finally broke it down to …. How about just collect obsolete electronics like cordless phones in a box for recycling? That’s it. Quick and easy. But I’m successfully ignoring it
Then vacuum the floor full of smaller tasks. No more tasks and the floor is vacuumed.
now my list is longer
