A link to #Facebook I know. Gross. But this is what its like #livingwithadhd. I touched a #DoomPile once and had a shoe thrown at me. For the #adhd uninitiated, a DoomPile or #DoomBox is "Didn't Organize, Only Moved" pile; its a pile of stuff left somewhere (usually in a very annoying place for the neurotypical) before the ADHD #neurospicy brain got distracted.
Can't touch em tho. Just cause #neurodivergent brain got distracted doesn't mean they won't ever get to it.

I'm not sure if it's satisfying to discover there is a word for the bizarre habit you have, like "good i'm not the only one" or if it's bad that so many people do this that that's a bad thing in itself.
*Doom Box* (bag/pile/etc) is when you dump things in a box, rather than sort/ tidy properly.

MovedI've been #DoomBox ing since long before it was a tiktok trend.

One of my ways for working on my ADHD doomboxes / doomrooms is to try to clean / put away / dispatch N things every time I'm in physical proximity to the doom. When things are going well, maybe N is 1, when I'm getting behind (because every time I go in there I use and leave out > N things) I just increase N. It's not a perfect system, but it helps me make progress when I can't seem to schedule a big chunk of time to deal with it in one chunk, and I never get overwhelmed by "just N things". It helped me deal with a doombox I have had for almost 10 years!
