> I'm not sure what the dictionary definition of 'executive function' is, but in my opinion, the term is probably used a bit too broadly.

i guess i'm referring to things like attention span, concentration, and ability for abstract thought. what i find cruelest about depression is that given the presence of executive function issues combined with psychomotor agitation, i can't even do things like read for long periods or watch TV to keep me busy or entertained. i have all this restless energy but it's completely unproductive. i just walk around the house eating.
