How ADHD causes issues with procrastination
Is procrastination a sign of ADHD? Though procrastination on its own is not necessarily an indicator of ADHD, it can be a particularly difficult symptom that people with ADHD can deal with. While most people procrastinate at one point or another, those with ADHD can be particularly prone to habitual procrastination.
One common situation where ADHDers will likely procrastinate is during difficult or unpleasant tasks that cause them to struggle. Because these tasks often require a lot of focus while also providing little intrinsic reward for an ADHD brain, many people will end up overcompensating by avoiding the task altogether. This can be particularly difficult for professionals with ADHD trying to learn how to stop procrastinating at work.
It can also be difficult for a person with ADHD to get started on a project. With the various considerations and decisions that need to be made in the planning stages of a project, it can be overwhelming to sustain focus, causing many people to procrastinate.
One other reason for ADHD procrastination is the tendency to get sidetracked. When distractions invade your space or attractive new ideas flood your mind, it can make it a struggle to focus on the original project. Agave Health aims to help members understand how their ADHD symptoms contribute to their procrastination habits and develop personalized strategies to overcome it.

What our members say
I have benefitted so much from my Agave coach's advice and tips. ADHD is a daily struggle but since joining Agave days have been so much easier. It's not as hard to take care of myself now.

Jeremy
It is so reassuring to have my Agave coach by my side. Honestly, I think I'm the most balanced right now than I can ever remember being.
Katie
My partner doesn't struggle with ADHD and doesn't grasp how much the subsequent executive dysfunction affects my life. With medication not bringing the "aha" moment I hoped for, you have no idea how much the Agave help means to me.
