Ok… this one might seem a bit silly but i could not keep up with refilling my standard pill box. I’d get to Saturday then forget Sundays exist and not refill my case for the following week which would lead me to lose track of whether or not i took my meds… that all changed when i got this cute flower pill case 🌸 Idk why it works better for me but i STAY on top of that shit now! No more brain zaps 4 me!
Maybe TikTok commenters would say this is enough evidence to diagnose me as neurodivergent. Maybe time is a flat circle. yada yada.

Changed my life. If I had it together enough I would sometimes put my pills in those weekly pill boxes but never stuck to it.
Now if i ask myself "have i taken my meds today?" i can look at the bottle and KNOW! 23 hours ago! Time to take meds. 30 hours ago! oops forgot. 6 hours ago! lol already took em today and have no memory of it but the cap does!

My pill organizer (simple white plastic with blue sans-serif lettering for the days of the week: SMTWTFS) was a gift from my boyfriend. I used to have to announce whenever I took my vitamins (“HERE I AM TAKING MY VITAMINS!”) so that someone else in the house could corroborate that I'd done it. Now I rely only on the case. I love collecting the pills from their compartment in the morning—I imagine this is what it feels like to collect eggs from a chicken coop–and I love refiling them all when the week is up. Each of the little closures has a satisfying snap. As an aside, I once heard that not all countries consider Sunday the first day of the week. I wonder if their pill cases say MTWTFSS instead.

One day you wake up and you’re in your 30s and there’s a mix of prescriptions and supplements and vitamins you’re meant to take daily. Some of them are for the morning and others are for the evening. By lunch it’s like, did I take them this morning? I think I did but maybe that was yesterday. Same thing happens as you go to bed.
Now I just ask my pill organizer, and it answers by either being empty or not in the relevant space. Tuesday morning? Check. Friday evening? Still there, try again next week. Can’t recommend it enough.

Currently have three full pages in my notebook! I guess some might call this a gratitude journal LOL but it’s different when I do it.
My brother was telling me about this phenomenon called “target fixation”. It’s a panic reflex that happens when motorcyclists become fixated on a singular object, obstacle, hazard (e.g. a sharp curve on a winding road) and they will unconsciously steer in the direction of the thing they’re trying to avoid because their hands follow their gaze which leads to accidents.
You will follow your gaze so be aware of where you’re looking. Train yourself to seek out pleasure and appreciation! Understanding where + what you derive pleasure from increases your capacity to enjoy things which in turn makes you a more interesting person (imo). I think it’s just as important self-knowledge as understanding your triggers/trauma. It is a daily willingness to be transformed by small things.
Sorry for lecturing but I want good things for all of you.

Forgive because this where I get a little ~woo woo~ but I think you should only wear necklaces that are imbued with a potent magical vibe… amulets only near the heart and throat
you can do whatever you want with earrings/rings but heed my warning about necklaces
