Merwin: Joey, I'm gonna pretend for a second that you're my wife and that we have children,
It does work tho lol
I have 4 weeks worth of projects that I completed in 2 days with 3 hours left to spare brefore deadline. And then the deadline was not even real, my teacher just told us about it for funsies ig🤷🏻♀️
Point is, deadlines are actually helpful in making you productive
A fun way to get yourself to do chores when you have adhd is to simulate a sense of panic by setting horrible deadlines that fit into other things that you’re doing.
For example, you set up a kettle of water to boil for your tea. Quick! Wipe down the whole counter before it’s done boiling, for the love of god you’re running out of time! Wipe it down! The water is almost boiling.
The water is boiling and your counter is clean. Now set your timer for your tea for three minutes and of my god there’s cups in your room! Quick! Get all the cups from everywhere in the house! Run! You’ve only got three minutes! Get all the dishes into the kitchen!
Oh would you look at that. You got all the dishes in the sink and now your tea is ready. Nice. Now you can chill with your tea.
I’ve found that little stuff like that helps me. Forcing myself into unexpected last minute deadlines. It fills up empty space and my house is a little bit cleaner.
