Some people are saying they don't get people who can subconsciously do tasks as a habit?

Is this a thing cos i don't believe how anyone could survive acting like this it sounds horrible I have never been so thankful I'm able to do something so normalised to me

Yeah.

Take coffee as an example.

On a good day, making coffee is basically a one-step process: make coffee.

On a bad day it's every single step, from getting the coffee out to getting water in the maker to getting the grounds ground to putting them in to...

So people in these situations get overwhelmed by choice paralysis or having trouble getting these steps going/in order, however it may present for the individual.

The point is that ADHD can often cause you to just not do things that other people do on autopilot, like dusting, sweeping, making dinner, etc

If I'm not consciously aware of something I have to do, I ain't fuckin doing it

Oh I misread I thought you were saying something like they can go autopilot on good days but can't on other bad days but this thread was saying they never knew they could auto pilot at all

This is like that "I don't have an inner dialogue" discovery for some people.

I'm both unable to stop having an inner dialogue and able to subconsciously do things I'll have an inner dialogue about a games story while subconsciously making coffee at the same time
