Sure, throw them away. But you also won't get back your
you pay on top for every beverage (canned or in plastic).
Here we are doing it for so long, I don't remember when we introduced this system and I can say:
I'm pretty sure, you will find the necessary energy and time.
Brother, even with the best intentions, I will not find the energy and time. It just won’t happen.
More ADHD tax ☹️
I guess with most things ADHD, it happens if you are convinced that the task is important and worthwhile, and build it into routine instead of something that is 'remembered' or forced on you as an 'adhd tax'. Positive self talk and mindset are tenants of ADHD habit building.
Maybe reading up on the good it does might help you find value to the task
I prioritise trying to keep myself clean, healthy, and not overwhelming myself. I already fail at all of those things.
If I tried to do this I’d probably manage it for a month, then end up with a collection of cans and bottles in the corner of a room, acting as a constant reminder of how I’m a failure.
I understand the good it does, I’d like to contribute, but that doesn’t change how my brain works.
If it makes you feel better, a good chunk of the population let's dishes pile, don't take their bottles in, put off chores, etc. until it moves over to that urgent column! My neighbor doesn't take in his bottles until it's 6 bags deep, but he's fortunate to have a huge storage space to keep them out of sight
"Just do what you're supposed to!"
Like, yeah, that's my whole problem. I do what I'm supposed to but it's completely independent of what I have scheduled or prioritized. Maybe it means my medication needs to be kicked up a couple doses. Or maybe it means I need people to be happy I got anything I needed to get done, done.
