When NOT to Use AI
The contrarian guide. Six categories of work where AI quietly makes ADHD harder, not easier — plus the specific signals that tell you to put the AI down. The kit that protects the executive-function skills you needed to keep.
Six categories. Six honest "don't use AI" rules.
- 01
Initiation tasks
When the AI helps you avoid starting. The starter-rule that fixes it.
- 02
Personal voice writing
Letters, journals, anything where being identifiable matters.
- 03
Decisions you actually need to feel
The category where AI smooths out the discomfort that's the signal.
- 04
Reflection and integration
Therapy notes, post-mortems — when the AI adds latency between you and the insight.
- 05
Daily practice work
Skills you're trying to keep — outlining, writing first drafts, calling people.
- 06
Crisis or dysregulated states
When AI use becomes avoidance. Honest signal list + a stop rule.
