Puts phone down
Checks the next days and the message is still there. Haven’t pressed send
i check at night usually and find all the texts i meant to send to my wife. scheduled texts are wonderful
This is me
Do this way more than I’d like to admit
It’s worse when it’s professionally. Yesterday I wrote and sent an email before lunch, except near the end of the day I saw I had an email in my Drafts folder and had never actually hit send.
Constant problem with outlook. Have to check the sent folder every time
I can’t tell you how many times i thought i sent a text or email just to find it sitting in my drafts a week later
I’ll come back to the chat two hours later when I suddenly remember that this person hasn’t answered me yet only to find my message, halfway typed out, in the draft box.
I’m in this comment and I don’t like it
When someone with anxiety meets someone with ADHD
Lucky me I got both!
This actually happens to me a lot at work…but it’s because:
-
I sign work emails with a certificate and sometimes it asks for the password
-
My company also has us mark each email with a third-party classification program.
These don’t come up until you hit Send, and sometimes can take several seconds.
So naturally I get distracted, open up a hundred more windows, and eventually reboot.
The really fun thing about this, is that it won’t even save a draft if it was waiting for a password…so Outlook continues to gaslight me on whether or not I wrote the email in the first place.

This happened to me this year when I was booking a band for a wedding party. They were thankfully very kind about it since I was booking with so much advance notice.
It’s really very common for ADHD lol these people
I do this regularly and in fact I may have just lost a very high paying client because of this so i’m trying to post my way out of depression right now
“Sometimes”?
Dude, I hate it when that happens.
Signal plugin idea: whenever you type a new letter, a countdown (re)starts that automatically sends the message after 5 minutes.
That is a terrifying idea that would guarantee I never start an email.
