Not a cure just a strategy I found useful that might help someone. I’ll quit trying to help people
My point is that executive dysfunction is the literal inability to do what you're describing (don't think, just do).
ADHD is a neurological disorder. Executive dysfunction is a primary symptom of said disorder.
Your "help" is the same as telling a depressed person to just cheer up, or someone with anxiety to stop worrying so much.
I have adhd and I know what it is and what it feels like. That works for me. Maybe it doesnt work for you. Maybe you just want to be unhappy idk. Either way good luck brother
