Staying Organised with a Spicy Brain

Obviously lots of neurospicy brains are different but this feels like something I might be able to get on board with. Shame that tablet is so expensive though, it looks pretty cool. I guess its time to buy yet another notebook haha.

Also I don't know if you've considered it, I read your post about autism, have you looked into ADHD at all? It has a pretty high rate of comorbidity with autism, and some of your experiences around organisational difficulties sound similar to what I've seen a lot of ADHD people struggle with. If you're not adverse to medication, it's something that you might be able to get help for (though UK wait times are abysmal so YMMV)

Glad the post helped! I totally agree about the notebook price, it is expensive, but I also enjoy using it all the time so it still feels worth it for me.

I have a formal diagnosis and informally discussed ADHD with the same professional but it was secondary :) I'm a bit reluctant to medicate when I feel like I have enough systems to "cope", but it's something I might try in the future.

Maybe I'll put it on my Christmas list then haha.

And that's ok, if your system works for you, you keep doing it =) I'm just hoping it will be able to make a difference for me haha, I've heard that it can make a big improvement for some people
