  • I have Autism & ADHD and i constantly spend more time trying to figure out a starting place and how i am going to the tackle the house work. by the time i start it too late and an unaccepted time to use a hoover. i will often try to tackle a task but start another one half way through and make more mess in the process which becomes upsetting. the only way i have managed to keep the house clean is by keeping to the same routine and frequent reminders however if someone disrupts the routine my autism side comes out and i start malfunctioning and meltdowning. my routine issues are double edge sword i need them, i like them but if i deviate from them or can't complete a tasks in the right order because someone is in the way or something happens it become issue. where it may take a couple of days to get back on trac or a week. 

  • Ive never really had much of a routine as a child coz no1 knew i was autistic till inwas 10yr old

    So i tend to struggle to stick 2 1
