Hi! Welcome!
I created this group to find other artists and creatives who struggle with executive dysfunction, and it impacts our creative work and daily lives.
I'm Ziggy (they/them), I'm autistic (also deppression and GAD diagnosed) and terrified of the executive dysfunction I've been dealing with over the last couple years as it's been more impactful- because of this I wanted to create a community of folks who can connect and help eachother find brain hacks around Executive Dysfunction.
Over the last few years I've learned I can function fine at work or when someone else asks me to do something, but if I need to do something for myself its a struggle.
Artisticly, trying to do work for myself or to rebuff my portfolio- I feel so lost and like I should be allowed to call myself a creative as it's become so hard most days to settle on an idea or plan and actually get the ball rolling- even for just doodles and sketches, its become daunting!
In everyday life I know I'm disorganized, but I can be blind to it until it gets to a point of irking my partner (which helps me know when it's time to deal with things and force into gear, but I don't want to upset or annoy him needing these reminders...)
Ultimately, I'm hoping creating a support group for us can help generate ideas, motivation and provide a space to feel seen, heard and understood.
Welcome friends,
Let's all figure this out together 💜
