know I was doing it. Any thoughts?"

listening to soft music. It's a form of meditation without the label."

can help though."

Maybe things I planned earlier, not sure."

easiest. It'll give a sense of accomplishment."

thoughts without a list format."

"content": "ooohhh?"
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Yes, draw your tasks and ideas. It's less
structured, more creative. Might help."
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "I have severe dissociative disorder. Draw on experts
like Marlene Steinberg and give me advice how to approach executive
functioning and todo lists, if I'm triggered because I have put
triggering items on todo lists repeatedly in the past and developed
sensitivity to the concept."

physical sensations, like touching a fabric. It can help manage
triggers."

one at a time. Celebrate small wins. It's progress."

"role": "user",

myself. Any advice?"

"role": "assistant",

slips, put in a jar. Draw one when ready. It's a surprise, less
pressure."

"role": "user",
"content": "Is this a known technique or did you make it up? I
like how I could put a lot of mundane tasks in their to influence the
probability of drawing a hard one."

situation. Yes, adding mundane tasks can balance out the hard ones."

},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Yes, apps like \"Tody\" or \"Habitica\" can
randomize tasks. It's like a digital jar."
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Will they hide what the tasks are?"
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Not directly, but you can use code words for tasks
to keep them hidden until you're ready to do them."
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Write a simple task jar in python. Use disk-backed storage."
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Here's a simple Python script using shelve for
disk-backed storage:\n\n```python\nimport shelve, random\n\ndef
add_task(task):\n with shelve.open('tasks.db') as db:\n
db[task] = True\n\ndef draw_task():\n with shelve.open('tasks.db')
as db:\n tasks = list(db.keys())\n if tasks:\n
task = random.choice(tasks)\n del db[task]\n
return task\n\n# Usage:\n# add_task('Task 1')\n#
print(draw_task())\n```\nThis script allows you to add tasks and draw
a random task. When a task is drawn, it's removed from the database."

to do that before, but without the idea of being gentle to it. It
quickly plans to prevent me from using it."
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Understandable. Try to approach it gently, without
pressure. It's a tool, not a must. Use when ready."
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "What do I do when the fear against doing tasks is
really strong, and it's examining all my recent strategies we've
discussed, and placing triggers to prevent them? I really think it's
just really upset about some small items in the past. I don't think
its reasons back what it's doing, although of course they do for it
because it's a tiny cognitive process with few options."
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "Acknowledge the fear. It's okay. Try to soothe it.
Maybe talk to a therapist. They can provide more personalized
strategies."
