No judgement? Do you use strategies or meds or both? I'm curious.

For me both. But without my meds I'm pretty useless.

I got a list that I purposefully set up to grow. It's not a to-do list... It's a "might do" list. When things get messy in my to-do list, I move those items to the might-do list.

Having 100 undone items on that list isn't a shameful thing, it means I said "no" to all those items (either actively or passively) and I try to celebrate that.
