Why Commitment Terrifies My ADHD Brain (and Why I’m Doing It Anyway)

Описание: AI wrote the overview for this video because expecting my ADHD brain to create, edit, share, AND describe IT, is wildly unrealistic.

Cheers Chatty G for transcribing my waffle and helping me ACTUALLY share it!

You know it wouldn’t get shared if I didn’t right? If you know, you know 😜🤪🤣 - Jen

🤖 AI Overview of the Video

In this video, Jenny reflects out loud on commitment, creativity, and the quiet terror that can come with choosing something meaningful — especially when you have an ADHD brain.

She talks about discovering daily drawing practices, becoming inspired (and slightly overwhelmed) by long-term creative commitments, and the tension between excitement, hyperfocus, burnout, and sustainability. What starts as enthusiasm quickly brings up deeper questions around discipline, routine, dopamine, demand avoidance, and whether traditional structures actually work for neurodivergent creatives.

This isn’t a how-to or a finished answer — it’s a real-time exploration of what it means to want consistency without forcing yourself into systems that don’t fit. It’s about learning to commit gently, one day at a time, without turning creativity into another place of pressure.

A thoughtful, honest check-in for anyone navigating ADHD, creative practice, burnout recovery, or the desire to create in a way that feels nourishing rather than draining.
