ADHD Adultish

Why Is My Phone in the Fridge?! (And Other ADHD Mysteries)


Listen Later

What do a missing sock, your keys in the fridge, and my husband’s lost DnD dice have in common? ADHD. That’s what.

In this episode, we’re solving some of the everyday mysteries ADHD brains create — like how you can lose something you just had, why you walked into a room and immediately forgot why, and where the hell your coffee went (hint: not your mouth).

We’ll talk about what’s actually going on in your brain, and I’ll share some ADHD-friendly strategies to help you stop losing your stuff — or at least lose it in more creative places.

Grab your magnifying glass (or your third cup of coffee), and let’s crack the case.

What’s inside:

  • What inattention, impulsivity, and low working memory really look like in everyday life
  • Why ADHD brains are basically mystery generators
  • 5 chaos-friendly strategies for finding your stuff (and forgiving your brain)
