@AncTreat5358 you're welcome. Hope it helps you find your own way. I've also moved away from to-do lists which I realised kept the pressure on me. Now I try to minimise what I think about needing to do, to only the very important, and to take each of those one at a time rather than plan this, then that, then that like a big campaign!

I think of autistic inertia in me like a rubber band.I relate to this and have found a different way to respond to the building nags that helps. It even works with my need to have done something to feel better about myself.
Firstly, I give myself a pass to do nothing, and to hell with it if I just sit with self kindness to the feelings that brings up. I am ok, love myself, this sad part etc. I go easy on myself.
So I look for the moment I *feel* like doing a thing, or a fraction of the thing. Key is, I want to do it.
