it depends on the seriousness of the appointment, but mostly it feels like if i start something else in between i wouldn’t have enough time to finish the task, i might get sidetracked and totally overwhelmed and everything is just stressful. even if it’s an easy and everyday task i’m doing in between, i’m suddenly feeling a lot of stress and pressure. so to some extent it’s bad time management due to getting sidetracked, fear of failure and that combination leads to radical time management: don’t do any task before! and for similar reasons the time afterwards is also somewhat uncomfortable

as someone on the adhd spectrum, there are hardly any worse than short obligations around midday and early afternoon. i feel that i can’t make any plans for before and afterwards, so the whole day revolves around this one little thing…
