What Causes Lazy And Inattentive Behavior?

Our adult son (30 years old) doesn't seem to care about his appearance, I don't think he actually sees it. He will shave, think he is done; but, he has clearly missed some spots. His truck is packed with garbage i.e. food containers, bottles, etc. Basically, he is a slob! We have told him to seek help; just not sure what his issues are.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Being slob and irresponsible never means a person has some mental disorder. That shows negative attitude. He is slob because he has not came across anything which teases his responsibility. He needs to have responsibility. He should learn from circumstances. He will get those lessons and one day he will be a responsible person. Wait for that to happen. Mean while, you may talk to a psychological counselor for help.

Good luck.
