@depthsofwiki The article says "it is done in order to" as if there's a sort of rational choice going into it and not, instead, that it's the only method by which I am capable of completing assignments
@depthsofwiki I used this technique all the time in school except I would skip the last part of actually doing the assignment
@depthsofwiki I did this a lot in college with my essays and unfortunately, i was a good enough writer that my grades on those papers were very good and encouraged me to keep doing this all the way until i got my bachelor's degree lol
@depthsofwiki That's literally how I've done every major assignment from the beginning of high school until the end of my senior year in college
@depthsofwiki That is literally what I am doing right now. Had literal weeks for this project, but always put it off like “nah, I still got time. Ok but tomorrow for sure. Ok not today but definitely tomorrow. Ok now you REALLY have to” and now I have like 5 things to do within 3 days. Dead
@depthsofwiki @specman85 I kept doing this. Every single time I did this, I said to myself never again and then did the exact same thing with the next assignment anyway. Never managed to unlearn this. Doing assignments while there still was plenty of time? Couldn't be me. 😭
@depthsofwiki Lmao, I turned in my final paper on Sunday night, a half hour before the midnight deadline. I’d started it at 1 PM. 10 pages with footnotes and the whole nine yards.
@depthsofwiki Look man, imagine you got four jobs constantly hounding your ass to get their shit done. Whoever sets the deadline first is who's getting attention. If not im playing Disco Elysium and not talking to anyone
@depthsofwiki @UnlimitedHiV ik heb eindelijk gevonden waar wij aan lijden
@depthsofwiki This reminds me of the time in elementary I had to do a plant observation diary for two months for a long term (I think it was science) project, didn't do that, and instead the night of the deadline completely fabricated 60 entries at 2 in the morning. Think I got like an A- lol.
@depthsofwiki Makes it sound rational. Thanks!
@depthsofwiki @camisavv será que me dan incapacidad?
@depthsofwiki @ChrisSampson87 you feeling seen? 👀
@depthsofwiki Any other teaching alternatives? Would it be a combo of teacher-given inspiration or class excitement? Perhaps ownership of the assignment, giving the students responsibility and personal investment?
@depthsofwiki @ari_hawaris baru tau mank kalo hal yang gua lakuin seumur hidup ada namanya, gua kira cuma males kronis.
@depthsofwiki This is just how I live, every day. Yes, I have anxiety. 🤪
@depthsofwiki @fatmaabdfattah3 درس الماث الساعة ١٠، فاطمة الساعة ٨: اما اقوم ابدأ في الhomework
@depthsofwiki I did this so much in school that now I’m doing it with activities in my life. I’ll go through every clean shirt until I do laundry. I need to see a therapist tbh
@depthsofwiki It's not just students; I have never seen a tender, proposal or quote from a salesman that was not submitted other than at the last possible moment - or even late, with excuses...

@depthsofwiki Lots of people in the replies that seemingly don't know they have ADHD...
