I go nuts if things don't change

Sometimes I drive people nuts because I can't stand when things stay the same. For example, I don't like when tasks at work are the same conceptually, I don't like when I talk to someone and they say the same thing all the time (lol), and I don't like when my environment is the same. The last example in particular makes me go crazy! I can't sit still and I want to move around because I get bored sitting in the same place all the time (hence work sucks sometimes). I NEED CHANGE. Change is literally one of the most important things to me in my life. (Is that weird?)

I dunno if anyone can relate. Might just be part of my personality or because of my ADHD. I have no idea. But I just needed to vent because I couldn't do any work yesterday!

i love rooteen and have various things set up throughout the day to keep to that statement

i'll eat dinner at half 5, or i'll watch emmerdale at 10 past 12, i'll always listen to music when on the computer, i'll always keep things in the same place etc.

i love rooteen

small changes are okay now and again, but i stick to my rooteen best as i can

I need a basic routine, but I totally get what you are saying blue. So many tasks within my job are so routine I can't stand it. Everyone once in awhile I will shake it up a bit.

I can't handle change at all. I need everything to be routine and the same or it makes my anxiety skyrocket.

Seriously, guys, I can't stand routines! I'm totally anti-routine.

This is probably why I'm sooo disorganized... but I mean, I just go nuts if I do the same thing at the same time every single day!

I also get anxiety when I DO have a daily routine. Basically, if something unforeseeable throws off my routine, I freak out as if it's the end of the world. I don't even know why I get anxiety like that, but that's a small part of why I don't have a routine.

In general I prefer having at least somewhat of a routine. That being said, I can relate to your work scenario. I find myself squirming around a lot because I get bored or frustrated if I'm stuck doing the same thing for too long. Thankfully I have a few things to do at work so it isn't so routine all of the time.

I can't stand routines either, blue. I feel like I'm being put in a box and it makes me want to leap out of it lol

I was very routine driven when my daughter was a baby. They make the routine lol

Nowadays, I like to change things up but I'm getting stricter with myself about going to bed at the same time.

I have a few things I do routinely every day (take meds, go to sleep at a certain time). But most of my day is unstructured. I probably could use some more structure, but I haven't figured out what to do just yet.

I need change, too!

I never cook anything using a recipe. I just make it up and can never duplicate it. I would be very happy to move around or even live in hotels. I don't like going to the same shops and seeing the same people all the time. I didn't really connect with enough people here and I want to move on to try somewhere new. I get bored of people when all our stories have run out and we get too tired of each other. I don't want to throw them away, but I want to keep meeting new people and hearing what they have to say...learning from new people.

I can do routine for the things that must be done. I do like some routine to a point. I feel like I am driving in a little square around my town to all the same few shops and it's very boring.

I loved doing plays where it would run for a while, then there would be a new one to learn. I would have been so content doing that for my whole life, but that didn't happen. At my job, it does have great variety and is always different, and I like that, even though I have been too depressed to really function at the job lately.

I do go on binges like watching a whole series of a show. But then I tire of things and go on to other things.

I suspect I have ADHD, and have hardly ever finished anything, sabotage my success, quit things usually, like to move on.
