  • Well they are pretty correct when you think about them not as does this person pay their bills, but as will this person make the bank money.

    That’s why you’re penalized for paying off something early and credit cards help your score but consistently paying rent doesn’t.

    Credit score just shows they can make interest off you, not that you’re good with money, and in fact I feel like the people who are best with money (saves up and buys things cash) are just penalized with crappy credit scores.









  • Fill each one with three or four pills! You’re not going to accidentally take all three, but it’ll still keep track of whether you’ve taken it or not.

    Or get the box that’s sun - sat morning, afternoon, evening boxes, then it’s three weeks at a time.

    I just got a little tab that hangs off and it has 7 poppers on it, and you pop in the day of the week when you take it. No refilling

    Seems like you’re implying that because procrastination is a symptom of OP’s disorder, they’re not responsible for the consequences.

    Idk. We’re all adults here. Having trouble making the appointment IS the adhd. Not recognizing that trouble, acknowledging it, and asking for help absolutely is something their partner deserves to be upset about.

    At some point we’ve got to take responsibility and stop saying," yes, I’ll do that" and then not doing it. We’ve got to say, “that sounds like something I have trouble with on my own. Would you be willing to help me?”

    It’s not your fault you need help, but it is your fault if you don’t ask for it.









  • One important list I have is Things lent Lent to me, lent from me. Money is something I need to write down or I will NEVER remember. I mean I will forget I lent a thousand dollars. I have forgotten. But then I found my list! Unfortunately I just found an envelope labeled $1,210. But now it has $1010 in it. I know I lent out the thousand to my mom for a quick thing and she paid me back, but then what happened to the 200? Did I accidentally give it to her with the 1k? Did I take it out for something else?

    If I don’t write it down, I genuinely will not remember.
