Hi!
I'm Caroline and I have ADHD.
Yeah, I OWN having ADHD.
ADHD is a life of paradoxes. Like....
I can get a lot done in a short amount of time, but my sense of time is different than neurotypicals. It's either now...or, not now. That's it!
Ways I manage My ADHD
- Calendly
- Google Calendar
- Wardrobe Simplicity
- Amazon Subscribe and Save
- Objects at their point of performance
- Conditions of Success: (Avoiding PDA)
- Video calls as much as possible
- Label where things go
- Put things back
- White furniture
- Focusmate
- My Brain Book
- Asana
see the bottom of the blog for elaborated answers
Things I'm working on: (or struggling with)
- Eliminating Choices
- Stopping work in order to be on time when I could 'just squeeze in this one more thing'
- CLUTTER
- The art of getting things done
- Administrative assistant
- Light Colored furniture
- Not picking my face
- not binging on food for dopamine
Things that drive me batshit about the system of navigating ADHD
- Paper prescription and having to remember where I put them
- Why documents have to be stored non-digitally
- Doctors that hand me blood work paperwork for 6 months from now and expect me not to lose it, and manage to remember to get the bloodwork done
Calendly
I use calendly to schedule all of my meetings. Why?
- It avoids the back and forth of "when are you free"
- It limits the amount of interruptions I get a day with phone calls
- I can limit how much 'input' I get each week of new information , which can be really distracting.
