Still learning this lol. I have discovered by now that using meds is helpful but I can still wind uselessly spinning in a circle because I don't know where to begin with my to-do list. I have a whiteboard for each day of the week and I write down things I mean to do for each day on it. Even if I don't complete everything - which I usually don't - it helps me keep track. I want to get a couple white boards for different reminders. Not so much that it gets overwhelming though. I use a big monthly calendar for writing down upcoming appts. It helps me if both are big enough to read from across the room and out in the open so I don't forget to check them.
