This is the first I've heard of executive disfunction disorder, but your post really describes the struggle of a lot of my life experience. Do you have any advice for coping with it? I used to be medicated for ADHD but went off the medication in my 20's because of the anxiety it induced
OP is asking if he should try learning 3 new languages over the next year. If he has the problems with focus that his post and submission history indicates, then he has a snowball's chance in hell of succeeding without medication. But properly medicated he probably could.
So OP: if you want to learn 3 new languages in 2021, consider seeking psychiatric help. Not a dig, just advice from a fellow ADHDer.
