Regardless of whether you're medicated/unmedicated, or altered/not altered or any combination of those?

For me, its my hat I like to wear to keep my hair out of my way and contained somewhat lol

Also my pajama shirt(s), no idea why but its been better recently since I moved the "clothes chair" from being the laundry basket in the bathroom (just hanging there) to a dedicated shelf in the closet 😅

My glasses. My flashlight. My coffee cup. Pretty much anything I'm holding when I'm doing multiple things. I'll put something down somewhere to do something else and my brain simply will NOT record where I put it.

I have a simple rule now: "in the case, or on my face".

Sunnies on my face? Clear pair in the case. Clear pair on my face? Sunnies in the case.

Case is in my EDC bag.. And DOES NOT EVER LEAVE THAT POCKET..

The ONLY exception is when sleeping, I have a bedside nose holder my clear specs go on.
