Stop scooping!!!! And start pouring! I have two tall buckets I use as litter boxes and when it’s time I just put this over one and pour the other over it, empty into bag and repeat with the other bucket then finally separate and add new litter to each
I woke up with a miserable cold and spent all day in bed. Now I feel like I was useless all day
Feeling frustrated because I can’t seem to have a conversation with my spouse. I feel unheard, invalidated and judged when I get told I’m not paying attention therefore I don’t care, remembering things out of context, not making eye contact, making too much eye contact, and being overly sensitive. I feel so defeated and mentally exhausted. The stress triggers my migraines.
Deleting everything off my work phone and laptop, and filling out all the paperwork for my student loan 😫
I started deep cleaning my apartment and now I’m in that phase of starting too many things at once. It looks like a tornado hit my apartment but I’m starting with one task at a time. I might be moving so that’s motivating me to remove things entirely that I don’t use or need. 😳😅
I'll be starting soon in a research program in a new university, I'm a postgrad student, but I'm scared I won't be good enough or that I won't meet the professor's expectations of me
I have to turn in My VA information and last time it took four hours of clearing out emails because the medical files are so large wish me luck
After 4 days off, I have to go back to a job that once brought me so much joy and fulfillment. But last January I experienced ADHD burnout, which was/has been perpetuated and drug out for far too long due to a very toxic work environment (I work in mental health with professionals/clinicians that should understand). Bottom line, pretty much every negative ADHD symptom plays out on a daily for me. Emotional deregulation, RSD, anxiety. I am pretty much a hot mess and it just makes the situation with my coworkers worse.
I need to do my clear load out morning routine I’m avoiding. Sometimes when it’s hard to get out of bed, I order Uber eats because it forces me to answer the door lol. But I am broke now lol.

My morning routine with my daughter. We both have adhd and it seems impossible… my daughter is of course ok with arriving 5 minutes late to the before-school-kindergarten, but I missed my train to work with one minute 😩 I tell her to go brush her teeth. Nothing else. She is talking talking talking, I repeat, you need to go brush your teeth, she goes away, comes back says “I’m ready, can I chose jacket?” I say, “yes, but pack your water bottle and tupper first”…. In the end she had never brushed her teeth and she have no idea of what she did instead (I think she was admiring her jackets though….) she always remember last minute that she has not done something I told her to do. I can not supervise 100%, since I am single parenting and there is not enough time for that. I have adhd too and I need to get enough hours sleep to function. Is there any trick or any kind of adhd tool that works well for kids who easily forget?
Growing up, my mom had undiagnosed adhd and so did I. Any mirror or window, we would take an expo marker and write on it what I needed for the morning and afternoon. Example: Bathroom mirror- - brush teeth - wash face - take meds -etc In the kitchen: - pack lunch - put homework in backpack - grab library books -etc Another thing that always helped me was my mom would wake me up and have me us a pencil and paper and she would have me write down my list of things to get done to complete my morning.
Currently facing this issue got a project due tonight I haven’t even started. I have taken all the notes I know the assignment directive I understand what to do how to do it. Now I just have to do it. Might try to get up and pace around a little bit when I do that I end up in the kitchen making a snack🤦♂️
