ADHD Problem #6

I made plans with an art buddy to meet up and draw together. 

Me: I’m already trying to decide what I should be working on when we meet up. Them: It’s fine, we can find inspiration in the moment. 

I don’t think you understand that it will take me a century to make this decision. In fact, I probably should have started thinking about this a century ago.

ADHD Life Hack #2

Buy a rice cooker with a Keep Warm setting. Once the rice is done, the cooker just flips on the Keep Warm setting automatically.

Now it doesn't matter if you forget about it for five hours, it'll still be good 😋

ADHD Problem #3

Trying to explain the memory problems to people who don’t have ADHD. I’ve started explaining it like this... You know how sometimes you walk into a room but you can’t remember what you walked into the room for?  That’s how I feel all the time... 24 hours a day... and it never stops.
