My Husband Is On The Spectrum & Routines Are A Struggle
Briefly

His brain wiring causes him to become overwhelmed with things, such as remembering acquaintances' names, remembering the correct dryer setting for laundry, and opening and sorting through a pile of mail... He has spent his life coming up with systems and processes to help him accomplish things that seem to come fairly easily to others.
I know this sounds like an epic excuse... I get downright angry because it feels like my brain is wired to actively work against me. But that experience is also exactly why I have so much sympathy for my husband when it comes to the mental load.
