In a society that prizes efficiency and productivity, the symptoms of Executive Function Disorder can sometimes be misunderstood and overlooked. Simple tasks like planning, organising and prioritising can feel like insurmountable hurdles, leaving the individual feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. 

Executive Function Disorder (EFD) refers to a set of cognitive processes that are responsible for managing and controlling various aspects of goal-directed behavior. These functions are crucial for planning, organizing, initiating tasks, managing time, regulating emotions, and adapting to changing situations.

The pressure to excel academically and professionally can be intense for an individual who struggles to stay organised and manage time effectively. They forget deadlines, lose track of important documents and constantly feel like they are falling behind.
