Why People With ADHD Traits Procrastinate And Why It Is Not Laziness

Procrastination is one of the most misunderstood behaviours in high-functioning adults. If you identify with ADHD traits, you may know this pattern well. You care about the outcome. You know what needs to be done. And yet you cannot start. That is not laziness. In this episode, we explore why procrastination is often nervous system protection rather than lack of discipline. What looks like avoidance may actually be: • executive function shutting down under stress • dopamine variability and stimulation seeking • fear of evaluation or performance pressure • internal override built from survival conditioning When the nervous system perceives threat, initiation becomes harder. When shame increases, capacity decreases. This is not a mindset problem. It is state-dependent performance. For many capable men and women, procrastination sits beside perfectionism. High standards increase internal pressure. Internal pressure increases threat. Threat reduces action. The solution is not more self-criticism. It is regulation first. This conversation moves beyond productivity hacks and into mechanism. Because when you understand what your nervous system is protecting you from, you can recalibrate rather than override. You are not broken. You are patterned. And patterns can reorganise. Ready to recalibrate?
