Defrosting your freezer is an easy low-effort task until you spend couple of hours working, forget you're defrosting, and walk into the kitchen to see the freezer door open.
If we could bottle that panic we could do away with energy drinks.

@jasongorman The struggle with #ObjectPermanence is real for some. LOL. Like kids who never quite figured out that teachers weren’t some strange creatures who lived entirely in their classrooms and only awoke when students showed up to ignore them and be rude.
Ah, the sounds of #ADHD and #ObjectPermanence difficulties.
Hubby's curled up in his chair with a very happy cat on his lap. Asks me to get his ice cream pop thing from the freezer.
Me, standing in front of the open freezer door pushing everything around trying to find it : "I know it's here. I saw it earlier. I touched it earlier. There it is!"
It was on top of the ice tray, mocking me while I hunted through everything else. I didn't see it because only a tiny bit of the packaging was visible, and because it's his, not mine, I didn't "landmark" it's location in my head.
I'M THE ONE THAT PUT IT THERE WHEN WE BOUGHT IT. 🤦🏾♀️🤣🙄
Good grief. #ADHDer in the kitchen, y'all. 🙃

I knew I'd get distracted and forget I had this... I am a man of expected disorders. #ADHD #ObjectPermanence
Halfway thru my drive to work, I realize that I left my laptop on the cabinet in the foyer where I put things so I don’t forget them.
Maybe I could have gone back.
Instead, I’ll just have a lot of meetings today.

Tuesday is fuelled by coffee & vinyl I forgot I had 🎶 #ObjectPermanence
As a later-in-life #hEDS #AuDHD wifie I’ve always felt out-of-step 👣 without understanding why.
I’ve been #UnLearning every day because of this community on the bird site & I just wanted to say thanks to those who have found me here

I just went over to do my #finaltweet thread on the bird site before it collapses, and typing it out made me realize what I got most out of that site:
It kept people in front of me. It kept me engaged by the dopamine hits from its app, and that played on standard #ADHD #objectpermanence issues. Its insistence kept people in my life, and I'm more worried about losing that than any particular app or friends list.
