What is the best ADHD hack you've used?
Like my sister keeps deodorant in the closet because it's next to her clothes so she doesn't forget to put it on.

Any calendar app helps to remind me of appointments, and having designated areas / pockets for whatever you use. Ex: my laptop wire and my phone wire all stay near the desk. My phone always goes in my left front pocket etc.
I have my top dresser drawer organized with meds, vitamins, sunscreen, moisturizer, deodorant and perfume. I did it on a whim but it’s been working for over a year!
My handbag/purse is like a suitcase. Has all I could need and want. Meds I put in pill packs and put in a small bright makeup bag from my Ipsy subscription. I usually put my glasses or whatever I am likely to forget in there so I don’t forget it. I have toothbrush, toothpaste, mints, concealer +other makeup, 1 or 2 snacks, water bottle, extra charger, deodorant, lotion, aquafor, perfume in subscription tube, etc. I use all my Ipsy bags for specific things so in that way it’s organized but like a hypochondriac in a way.
The best and most simple advice i got once is this. if you need to start something, whatever it is. But you can’t stop whatever it is your doing right now and keep delaying it. Do this: start counting out loud (or in your head of you’re not alone) from 5 to zero and begin what you needed to do. Helps from getting out of bed, to stopping to scroll on your phone or start a work task.
