Yea, I have been misplacing all sorts of items for years. Now the tables turned. I have ADHD and for most of my life it has been a been a benefit. I could actually, multitask exceptionally on my past jobs. Now I loose a couple of items at the same time!
To compensate:
* I am Catholic by faith. I have prayed many times over the years for help to find an important items.
* I have reduced many items from my home, I never used.
* If anyone comes in my home and moves anything, I ask that if they pick anything up, for any reason, put it back in the exact place they found it.
* I have reduced misplacing items by teaching myself to put items in the same place, all time. For example, I know where my car keys and my wallet is located all the time. When I use something, I always put it back in the same place I found it.
* By removing many things in my home, I still fall sometimes, but not as much. This is silly but one time I sat down in a side chair and just marveled at all the space I had and still have everything I need. 😊
* I do not cook anymore. I was lucky the two times I did find food that I was cooking, just burnt up, because I forgot about it.
* For my most important items in my house can be located written down on my list, on my refrigerator.
* Loosing items has gotten worse for me, as time goes by during this progressive disease. My Neurological doctor has adjusted my medication to help.
Hope this information helps someone….Gordon
@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member and @A MyParkinsonsTeam Member, My brain is sharp enough to keep up with 15 to 20 Scrabble Go boards, each playing with one person. Using a stylus pen helps me with a variety of games on my phone, but it seems that every time I adjust my position, my stylus pen disappears. I try to put it somewhere specific, but some way or another, it's gone until I get another stylus pen. ; then @A MyParkinsonsTeam Member will find the first one, or I'll find it looking for the second... or third stylus pen. Oh, well! What can I do?
I would lose my brain if it wasn't inside my head
Whenever I get ready to go out >I put my phone and my medication together. Several times I can't find them only to find that my husband has put them in his pocket.
