Opening them feels daunting the minute they come, and the longer I put them off due to that, the more guilt gets added to the mix too, so they just go unadressed.

Has anyone found a strategy that works for this?

Nope. Marshall McLuhan said "the medium is the message" E-mails and texts are designed as asynchronous, meaning you'll get to it when you get to it. If it was important it would have been a phone call or a meeting.

Knowing you have ADHD means never apologizing for getting to it when you get around to it.
