Every weeknight, like clockwork
(lemmy.world)
That's Limmy, not Lemmy.
Clock, timer, and calculator are apparently interchangeable in my mind... Can never open the right one..
For me it's the clock and the weather app, because their widgets are next to each other. So many times while cooking I'm going to set a timer and end up thinking "oh it's sunny outside, neat............. 🤔"
When I first quit Reddit, I would grab my phone and not know what to do at all. I would flip through apps aimlessly and end up on GPS and confuse the hell out of myself.
Why not just set a scheduled alarm so you don't have to manually set it every night?
Because not everybody has a fixed schedule. For example, my alarms vary between 6:30 (kill me) and 7:45.
Yeah, I got a hybrid wfh schedule so on days when I'm in office I need to wake up to an hour early.
Headquarters! Mayday! This hit too close to our position!
Calculator, calendar, clock... There's a 66% chance I'm going to open the wrong one. Why is my brain like this?
OMG! Every god damn night.
Benny Harvey, RIP.
Gone but not forgotten.
Miss ya, big man
Every fucking time. And here I thought I was the only one.
If my clock app didn't have the option to set alarms for days of the week I'd be fooked. I can tell it to ring every Monday-Thursday (the days I have class) and then not have to worry about turning it on and off every day or for the weekend. If I need turn it off for a day it will auto turn on the next day. Otherwise I'd have slept through so many days of work and school by forgetting to turn on my damned alarm I swear.
What does this have to do with adhd? Happens to me too without adhd
Literally me
Calculator and calender for me. Every damn time. Maybe I shouldn't keep them both in the same folder on my himescreen...
I feel so vindicated
Get out of my head 
Sounds like COVID-19 brain damage.
This isn't a recent development.
