"Dopamine Mystery Packages" is such a good phrase.

The worst is changing your password only to be informed that your password can not be a previous one.

[Recks]

The laundry part… I swear I washed the current load I have in the washer twice already ..

2) When you reset the password and write it down this time so you definitely do not forget it but you just end up forgetting where you wrote it down so you have to reset it...again.

You randomly started showing up in my 'shorts' here on YouTube and honestly it feels like I have looked into a mirror for the first time and see my accurate and true reflection. I never would have suspected that I have ADHD until I started a new job recently and suddenly realized that all of my problems are the same as symptoms of ADHD. So I started watching videos on YouTube to discover more and I am 1, 000% sure that I have ADHD. And watching your videos over the past few days and seeing my actual quirks being discussed by someone else for the first time in my life is the most validating feeling in the world. Thank you so much.

True. Most of those 1000s of unread emails in my inbox are “your password has been changed, if this was not you…”. It was me. Because I forgot my password. Again.

Oh god… how is she always describing my life 😩

[Jacqueline_Thijsen]

I solved the laundry thing by buying a washer-dryer that washes and dries everything in one go.

[mrshmuga]

I always forget to put my clothes in the dryer… even when I setup notifications to do it. “Yeah notification, I’ll get it in a minute” and then 3 hours passes by, lol.

I was just diagnosed with ADHD at 37 and I am so greatful for these lighthearted looks into my mind. Ive lived my whole life with anxiety, angry and frustrated at my inability to function in a type A world and this channel has helped me see the positive side and also helped me feel less shame. Im really looking forward to reading your book. Thank you! And your love for one another is really touching ❤

[merrituber]

This is me. All of them. Is there one where you microwave something, forget it and then have to heat it back up again?

[jamielee]

I said this to my husband just today “I love ordering packages because I forget what I ordered and it’s like getting a little gift!”

[ellie]

The laundry part is spot on. After this happening for years I now get anxiety just seeing the laundry 🙈

[meredithmorgan]

Can’t recommend a password manager enough! Saved me so many meltdowns.

[SK]

Tears 😢 just discovered your journey purchased your book
I’m a 69 yr old female with ADHD didn’t have help
Until now thank you

[frankboff]

That is soooo me. I love ordering online, forgetting what I’ve purchased and then being surprised by every parcel!

[SLYKM]

I would forget the dopamine mystery package, but I get so obsessed and keep checking the tracking to see when it arrives. Then get excited and happy when I get it, and then re-realize that buying things isn't a lasting dopamine rush and that I get back to feeling sad or bored and learn my lesson for awhile, then forget the lesson.
But on the upside bc I'm the one responsible for the finances, I don't make as many impulsive decisions but ordering take out bc dinner is too hard to make is still a challenge.
See now I went from packages to dinner, but Idk.

[amjPeace]

I check the doorstep 2 or 3 times a day for packages because I can’t be sure if I’ve ordered something. And when I do get one it feels amazing!

[lizibeff]

I got SO GOOD at stopping impulse spending and I even had some money saved up. Then one night I decide I absolutely NEED some new tops and to sell half my wardrobe which also meant buying a bunch of postage stuff to send it. Back to square one… 😅

[kplrule]

I love that I'm not alone in all this. Thanks guys!
