Episode 8: The Mad Hatter Slot Machine

Have you ever said "I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it!" and you knew that was a lie? Samesies! This week we discuss poor planning - what causes it, why does it happen, and how can our little ADHD brains cope with those situations where we're forced to plan something way far in advance. The Mad Hatter takes over and we have a real big beef with the dreaded 5 Year Plan that our college programs forced us to formulate before we were diagnosed. Building on topics discussed in our previous episodes, we only take a few detours this week but we have a slight layover in Las Vegas. Be sure to follow us on IG and Facebook @thebarisanklehigh, Twitter @AnkleHighPod, and leave us a 5 star review and subscribe on your favorite podcasting platform! And remember to write down that reminder for yourself - because The Bar is Ankle High.   Sources:  https://psychcentral.com/blog/adhd-millennial/2016/03/why-are-people-with-adhd-bad-at-planning-ahead#4 https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0058338 https://www.additudemag.com/how-to-plan-ahead-when-you-have-adhd-understand-time/
