Meme Therapy ADHD Hacks. Wrong answers only

Here are some things I do that apparently are VERY ADHD:

  • Get so overstimulated by stuff, that you just throw it away.

  • Get so hungry, that you can’t even think about what to eat so you choose to eat nothing instead.

  • Have too many things to do on the to do list, so you do all of them at the same time. Unsuccessfully.

  • At about 90% of a project or task done, it’s basically done so you just stop and do something else.

  • Dont want to deal with something? Easy. Put it down and you’ll forget exists.

What are your ADHD hacks?

Lol the state of my vegetables drawer when I cleaned it out at the weekend was 🤮 Worst of all, the mouldy, wet, disintegrating ones were all at the bottom underneath the fresh ones.

This week I have the opposite problem. I put 10,000 veg in everything at the weekend, so now its Monday and I'm already almost out. There is no space in the freezer because I froze a bunch of soup I will never eat (its been there 2 years, i don't even think its safe to eat at this point)

No idea what we're having tonight. There's tons of leftovers but I find leftovers gross so I really need to start making less food. Think the bf will eat them though when he gets snacky.

Swap your fridge! Put the veggies on the shelves and the condiments in the drawer. You'll remember to dig when you need ketchup and the fresh stuff will have a better change!

Blueberries are the one berry that can last super long, they just begin to dry out in the fridge eventually (check for mold before eating)

If you’re lucky and have a good fridge it might still be okay!!

😂 don’t get me started on what’s in the freezer… I have a pantry stocked up with everything I could ever use that has items from 2014 in it!!! Long expired but still no plans to clean it out!!
