  • It sounds like the best you can do is reach out and encourage the people around him to keep an eye out. They may continue to enable him, but there's often a point in which even fellow addicts can see that someone is really suffering and needs help. You've also mentioned that you separated before, and he cleaned up, so that just might be the case again. Maybe you two really do need to separate permanently so that both of you can grow. Regardless, do what you can to help him, but your primary focus should be on your needs. Definitely talk through this with your therapist as well.

  • I thought that too. I bought a rocket book to make it super easy to scan and organize. But I never bothered to actually scan anything. It's just one of those things I will never get around to, so I just switched back to typing. Idk maybe ymmv if you don't have really bad ADHD like I do 🤷

  • Use habit stacking to make it part of your routine. Just start doing it after you brush your teeth or whatever in the evening. You can also set a reminder with Google tasks or whatever your preferred app is.

  • I have been typing my journals for over a decade. If you don't have a fondness for handwriting, then it will not make you feel any better. I find it frustrating to write by hand. It's significantly slower than my thoughts, it adds more clutter, it's less convenient, it cramps my hand, and you lose out on the ability to search your notes to help you remember events or check your progress. You don't have to use a fancy journaling app if you don't want to. I just use Google docs.

  • Voyager sort of works for that. If you click into a post, switch accounts, and click on posts, then the post you were last looking at on the other account will still be open. However, if you misclick and don't tap on posts right away (e.g. tap inbox instead), then tapping the posts button will show the subscriptions sidebar instead of the post.

  • It sounds like you've made the decision to leave. Can you call his parents and/or friends and share that your concern that he's going to hurt himself? I would make all of your arrangements to leave and then make the call(s). If he is making threats to hurt himself, I would go ahead and call emergency services.

  • Yeah I just can't hear over the phone most of the time. It's somewhat better on ADHD meds. It's a lot worse when my allergies are acting up. I find video calls somewhat easier just because I can focus easier if I can read lips and body language.
