• My Husband refuses treatment for his ADHD and it's affecting our marriage (and now I'm the default parent)

  Whatever you do don't stop repenting. Shaitan wants you to feel ashamed of yourself so you stop repenting. Remember that Allah SWT wants you to return to him to repent.

• How can I get out of this victim mindset and get myself to work at my desk more rather than on my bed?

  For staying on track on your computer try 1Focus. https://onefocusapp.com/ I tried tons of website blockers and this was the best IMO. Source: over 2 years ago

• Am I supposed to feel like this?

  Using tools to block distraction when necessary. I like 1Focus - you can customize the sites you don't want access to (social media, etc) and the duration (so when I do a 50 minute pomodoro stretch, I turn on 1Focus for 50 minutes). Source: over 2 years ago

• What to do instead of online (window) shopping?

  If all else fails, I use an app called 1Focus to block a list of sites that tend to steal my attention. You basically set the list of sites and a timer, and by the time the timer is done, the urge is usually gone too. Source: about 3 years ago
