For people living with ADHD, it's rarely about not caring or not knowing—it's about keeping important things "on the radar." Time slips. Deadlines vanish. Birthdays, meetings, even small everyday tasks can simply disappear from memory.
It's called time blindness, and it affects millions of ADHD brains every single day.
If you've ever promised yourself you'd "just do it later" only to realize it's too late, you're not alone. This article explains why this happens and how Codot—your AI personal assistant—can help you remember what matters and act on it, gently and effortlessly.
The Pain of Time Blindness
ADHD time blindness isn't laziness—it's a real executive function challenge. It makes it hard to:
- Visualize time as a sequence (past, present, future)
- Recognize how long tasks take
- Connect "now" with "later"
This leads to:
- Missed deadlines
- Forgotten events
- Chronic last-minute stress
Why Conventional Calendars Fail
Standard calendars show you when things happen but don't help you feel when something matters. You see the date but can't make your brain care right now.
Most to-do lists pile on tasks without offering:
- Prioritization
- Gentle reminders
- Flexible scheduling
That's where Codot changes everything.
