as an ADHD girly, I love my capacity to be interested in virtually anything, but that invariably leads to analysis paralysis when I’m deciding what to do. So I use an app (tiny decisions) and a website (pickerwheel) to make those decisions for me! Decisions are made AND I’ve made it into a game for myself! 🔥

i wish i was joking but i’m diagnosed and they have been the biggest help for my adhd since i got them prescribed... but non-meds wise: i made another post about organizing stuff recently, i’ve also found some apps to be super helpful: flora (pomodoro focus app), screenzen (best way to manage screen time), waterllama (manage water intake), + gcal and google tasks (turn on notifs, use both religiously).
the eisenhower matrix is a weird but useful way to think through task prioritization; writing out things to do step by step as a to do list can also be helpful (i.e. instead of just “write paper” break down all the steps from reading/bibliography to final edits)

whenever I have a lot of chores I make a list of 20 things to do (including breaks of varying lengths) and then roll my D20 to pick which task on the list I’m gonna do. Really helps with avoiding the whole starting-a-big-thing paralysis my ADHD gives me

the shortage/me feeling like normal spongebob on adhd meds had me set up a whole system otherwise i would be a hot mess
handwritten paper planner - pref one with a weekly timeline because i love seeing it laid out in full. this is 50% me just wanting to decorate and use fun stationary and 50% knowing if i dont write it down/see it laid out- i will forget </3
digital calendar/reminders - for the big stuff!! Anything reoccurring that may slip my mind, color coded based on whats going on ie, work shifts, reoccurring plans w friends, personal time for hobbies, i also have a bunch of reminders that try to get me to sleep/keep me on track and its been the best, i luv that includes travel time too and will remind me 15-30 mins in advance of when i need to leave bc i love to get wrapped up/ lose track of time and run out of the door

Because putting together a silly little costume and rewatching episodes while I got ready to go have a boogie with my pals was excellent
