App recommendations for flexible routines?

Monkeyclogs

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has found an android ai app that helps them manage routines and flow in a more flexible way?

Or even how the following problem is usually summarised, so that I can look into ways to fix it!

I struggle with maintaining any sort of consistency when something interrupts my usual routines. If I have to meet a someone somewhere at 11am, this disrupts me to the extent that everything else turns to chaos. Yes, I manage to turn up at the right place at the right time but when I get home my house is in chaos, I've not eaten, i'm exhausted because I didn't sleep and completely disorientated. I'm basically only capable of meeting my basic needs if i'm at home alone all day everyday at the moment.

  • Do you get anxious.

    If so it sounds like anticipatory anxiety. Even thinking about it changed my heart rate, gave me a feeling I my throat and made my hand sweat, for a few seconds.

    I have it to varying degrees. It was much worse when younger.

    It is hard to stick to routines. You have to try to, and use whatever you can to try to calm yourself. Breathing, distraction, tea, etc. I don't know what the solution is.

    I also try to plan. If I know everything is covered and prepared it helps. Although I can then overthink it. Sometimes I just try to avoid thinking about it till the last moment.
