Furthermore you don’t diagnose symptoms, those are reported or observed. Definitely still valid to avoid the immediate jump from symptom to one of the many complexes which develop it.
I’m still not a doctor, but as a first-aid certified person, signs and symptoms can be extremely useful in helping someone. It gives you a starting point to try to figure out what’s happening.
Further investigation is always required.
Medical diagnosis is a science. Things need to be proven. You can’t just go on vibes or feelings or whatever.
Since OP describes some symptoms that can be associated with executive function disorders, doesn’t mean that they definitely have those conditions. Only a qualified doctor should be making that kind of conclusion.
To be clear I’m agreeing with you. I’m saying Ios_chill had a point with executive dysfunction being a symptom of many conditions. So jumping to one of those conclusions based on one symptom without further context nor a systematic approach is wasteful for everyone.
My entire point is that since task paralysis can be a symptom of an executive dysfunction, it is worth the time for OP to talk to their doctor about it.
I don’t think that the previous poster said, nor implied that OP definitely has an executive dysfunction because of this one symptom.
Neither of which I think you have refuted at any point, in any capacity. :)

Oh, I didn’t think you were disagreeing.
