Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• Even after I technically finish something, my mind keeps circling back to check on it like it's not really done, and I think it's because I never paused to actually register the win
• I get going on something with a lot of steps and then stall out partway because the next move is fuzzy, and every time I sit down I have to figure out where I even was before I can do anything.
• When I think back to that moment I can feel my body wanting to push away or run, like the move it never got to make is still sitting there half-finished and waiting in my arms and legs.
• I mean to pause and let a finished task land, but the instant it’s done I’m already onto the next thing and the moment is gone
• I finish what someone asked for and just move on without telling them, and then they ping me "did you get to that yet?"
