Lack of daily routine

Does anyone have difficulty with having a lack of routine? I'm ok when I'm in work or have commitments but otherwise I seem to flim flam around. I notice other people are able to productively relax (eg I'm going to sit and watch a film then I'm going to do a work out) whereas I feel I act more on a whim. I'm getting some help to establish a better routine outside of working days because of a non autism related issue.  They've left me just to get on with it and plan myself which is fine because I know I need help with this but I feel there's an element of demand to it now. It's hard for me to establish a routine and very easy for it to unravel. Can anyone relate to it?

  • I'm very routine based, too. It also takes me sometime to adapt to my wife being off work when she takes holidays. I just adapt to it & she's back at work again. Within my household 99% of the time I'm the first one up in the morning, whether I'm at work or not. If I'm not it really knocks me to pot. 

    She also recently bought me a snuddie, I put it on for 10 minutes, then took it off again, hung it back upstairs within my wardrobe again, reason for doing so, I thought it was making me too lazy, sometimes I can't even understand myselfJoy
