I'm so tired of "integrated" AI tools.

Here's the summary for a very long thread: 1) ADHD can be a disability. I had to accept that. 2) It is irresponsible to myself, my loved ones and my coworkers to not manage my own ADHD, and sometimes that means taking a day off to recover. 3) On those days the rest IS the work. Full stop.
