What has significantly helped your ADHD ?

11moHaving someone come clean once a week really helps me too. Wanting to keep my place nice after they cleaned it motivates me to pick up more as well!

11moI have a lady that comes every 2 weeks and it lights that fire under my ass to get things picked up so she can focus on the tasks I hate (bathrooms 🤢 and floors) if she has time left over she helps me sort and organize doom piles. She also takes anything I want to donate because I have a bad habit of not doing it and then it becomes another doom pile 🤦🏼♀️

11mo* Consistent daily Methylphenidate medication 💊 * Home Office 🖥️ (No more stupid constant visual and auditory distractions) * Some discipline regarding morning ⛅️ and evening ✨ routines * Some discipline at keeping my beautiful and quiet apartment organized * Hiring a person to clean the apartment 🏡 weekly , which also acts as a checkpoint to keep my place organized even if I slip for a day or two. Honestly, I’m lucky and grateful for being able to attain all that. 🙏 A lot of people with ADHD cannot have a high-paying and engaging remote job due to the nature of their job and other things. I’m aware of my “privilege” in that domain 🥹 and it’s one of my motivators not mess things up and do the best I can.

11mo• Working backwards from a time, so I can be closer to being on time! • Eg. I have a list called night before work, and morning of work. I write a checklist, eg. eat, bring drink bottle and lunch, etc. • Then I put this list next to my bathroom sink, with a pen. • The list helps me refocus when getting distracted, and reduce stress of trying to remember what I need to do before I get out the door!

11moDoesn’t work everyday, especially if I forget to print the list, but on days I use it, it’s so helpful!

11moApple watch. It is obviously an expensive gadget but it has saved me so much trouble and stress. It helps me find my phone, it can take voice notes, alarms and timers can be made in an instant... Maybe someday such a thing will be cheaper and more accessible for everyone because I would like to see it help more people

11moI’m impressed with your discipline! I have a hard time getting up early, especially since it’s so dark in Michigan this time of year…

11moI wish I could find an exercise routine that works for me. I’m usually really tired after exercise instead of energized.
