This is starting to kind of become a huge problem

Ok I'm really really forgetful and unorganized and I seriously
lose everything and I space out a lot and it's really starting
to hurt me. Like I always lose my sweatshirts and stuff because
I leave then places and forget. And u also lose important things
like my birthday money and checks for school and I almost didn't
get a yearbook because of my tendency to lose things too. The
list of things I've lost goes on and on. I've tried being
organized but I just can't stay organized. It's too boring and
routinely. And I just don't have time with all the shart going
on in my life.
I also try to remind myself about things by writing it in my
phone but that doesn't help either, I always get distracted by
something. Like I missed a mandatory meeting on Thursday and
what's pathetic about it is someone reminded me just a class
period before. Buuuuuty friend who I hadn't seen in forever
turned up at school and well I totally forgot about the meeting.
I just can't help zoning out and letting my mind wander when I'm
bored out of my mind or distracted by more fun and exciting
things. I don't know how to stop I just. Ugh. My thoughts
compete in the hunger games for attention and the "unimportant"
ones like "gee I wonder what a penguin/squirrel would look like"
win.
Help how do I remember important things ;A;
And also the fun things at the same time because my random
thoughts amuse me
My brain just can't handle the mundane apparently :/

Alright. As far as organization goes, you could try an organized
chaos thing like I do. I'm bad at keeping up with stuff too. So
what I do in my room, is I just pile things together. The art
pile goes here, the clothes pile is here, here is the pile of
books I still need to put on my shelf. Stuff like that. As far
as keeping up with stuff, always try to put whatever it is in
the same place so you always know where to look. I always carry
a book with me to school so when I have money to take to school,
I put it in the front cover so I know where to look. For other
stuff that I can't just put in my book, like keys or whatever, I
put them in the same place pocket. My keys always go in the same
pocket in my bag. Do try and write stuff down. Write it on a
piece of paper five times. Write it ten times. However many
times as you think you need to remember it. Put it on your
calendar in your phone and turn on the alarm so it reminds you.
Tell your friends to remind you of these things and that they
can smack you if you forget. That usually gets them to remember
to remind you. As for sweatshirts, put something heavy in the
pocket. You'll get used to that weight and notice pretty quick
when it's suddenly gone. Or put your phone in there. It's
important and heavy and that might work even better to make sure
you remember. If you have a purse or whatever, make sure it goes
over your shoulder so you can't just put it down somewhere and
leave it. I hope this helps. If it doesn't, you might want to
consider talking to your doctor about add/adhd. What you're
talking about is a lot like what people with those do. At most,
you'd just have to take some medicine for it but it'd be a lot
better for you in the long run. I am done talking now so good
bye and good luck.
