Make thorough Things to Do lists, but don't beat yourself up about whether or not any particular item gets done.

The main benefit of TTD lists is that they relieve us from juggling huge numbers of tasks in our heads, relying on a working memory that is - let's be honest - not usually our greatest strength ; )

For a range of reasons, people with ADHD are more likely to wake up dehydrated, feeling groggy and yuck.

To mitigate this, I keep a reusable water bottle by my bed, and make sure to fill it up every night before I go to bed. When I wake up, the very first thing I do is slug the whole thing back.

When I get up, the first thing I do is refill it and put it back in its spot. I try to drink another full bottle in the first few hours I'm awake, especially on hot days.

If you always forget meds: put them by your toothbrush. Or your coffee. Tie it to a habit you already do.

Keep duplicates: one charger at home, one in your bag. Same for meds, headphones, anything you always forget.

Sometimes the best thing you can do is... just relax and pick some flowers. 💐🌿
No goal. No rush. Just being.

When your mind is loud, do something with your hands.
That’s self-care too.

Apparently muscle tension/back & shoulder problems are common in people with ADHD. So fellow ADHDers, what do you do to relieve the tension, fix your posture, & stretch out your muscles?

My shoulders hunch up terribly when I am under stress.
