How much do you estimate your monthly ADHD “tax” is?

Now that school is out, I finally had a chance to clear off my extremely junky desk, and what did I find??? A package from Amazon with clothes I purchased that didn’t fit right. Now, the deadline has passed, and I’m out of $237! So, how about it squad, anyone in the same boat?

Did you call them? Their customer service is pretty dope if you tell them that you can’t do anything with the clothes aka get them to empathize with you ?

Ok…I just got this tip from my therapist yesterday regarding groceries… She recommends I compile my grocery list and order it from the grocery store. I’ve never tried shopping for my groceries this way because I don’t trust others to pick out the fruits and meats I’m going to throw away next week. 😬However, I’m going to give it a try with my non-perishables. Has anyone tried this? Did it help you keep your expenses down?

It's been less so since I switched most of my bills to my KOHO account where there aren't overdraft fees but I would very often get multiple NSF fees a month for forgetting to have enough in the right account. Plus all the late night impulsive Uber eats orders. I recently downloaded an app blocker though and am not allowed to open it after 10 pm.

Probably $200-500 in subscriptions to things I forget I have and don’t use.

Yep. All of the above. I live like two blocks away from my favourite restaurant and still hit skip. The dishes. Just can’t get out of my head. Lol

Judging by my impulsive DoorDash orders, Amazon and Dining Out I would say about $700🥴

I’m afraid to calculate 😭 but with my last hyperfixations, the food I impulsively buy, the vegetables I also impulsively buy thinking I will have enough energy at the end of the day to cook them… I prefer not to think 🤣😭

Oh, just cleared off the desk as well, and from the whole of $400/month + bonuses (which are gone now) I am pretty sure that more than $100 goes with the wind. Also, I am the one who buys technical stuff impulsively, and then finds there minuses with time. Such as an oldie soundcard which required special drivers - and I honestly dig as deep as possible through the Internet while having hyper focus, and then found that! It was also around $100-150.
