I've never seen this explained. Is there a name for it?

Executive dysfunction. You have a thing to do, you know you have to do it, there is nothing physically stopping you from doing it, it's not a difficult thing to do, you just can't make yourself do it. It's just your brain throwing up an invisible, intangible roadblock. And it sucks being a full-grown, independent adult trying to overcome it.

I've wondered sometimes if I had ADHD but it just doesn't fit for me.

I think it's trauma-based executive dysfunction. In survival mode I work very well, I just don't know how to function outside of it yet.

bi-polar type II ? .a dopamine or hormone imbalance? go see a doctor and have your Thyroid checked. have them do blood work for diabetes. a regular health check at least once a year is always good . you may just be lacking a certain vitamin in your system.
