Make time visible
Use a timer you can see shrinking, not one you have to check.
Good for
- You lose track of time
- “Five more minutes” becomes an hour
- Running late
Why it helps
Many people with ADHD struggle to feel time passing. Turning time into something you can see gives your brain the signal it doesn’t produce on its own.
The full version
Decide how long this should take.
Start a visual timer where you can see it.
Glance at it: the shrinking colour shows time passing.
When it’s gone, pause and decide what’s next.
