Hi there. Things have spiraled out of control lately, I don’t have a stable job at the moment and when I do, I mostly work from home.
I urgently need to establish some kind of routine and find a way to follow it. Productivity isn’t even the priority as I do have a good amount of free time. Problem is that I don’t use this boredom effectively at all.
I wanted to know if there are books/guides that could help ADHD people establish routines and how to keep them up. I’m autistic too, which means I greatly benefit from routine.
Thanks for any kind of advice!
This is a section from an evidence-based module on coping with procrastination, but I find some of the strategies are also helpful for distractions/a screwed up routine. It has a great electronically fillable weekly planner chart on page 10.
All of the resources on that site are free and evidence-based (meaning proven beneficial; not some self-help crap). I used that site a lot when I was a caseworker for adults with serious mental illnesses (SMI). I benefitted myself from teaching the information in groups and clinical interventions.
