What are you noticing?
Start with what feels familiar. No diagnosis is required, and you do not need to know why it is happening to begin noticing patterns.
Not sure what’s causing this? Start here
Overwhelm
Why am I overwhelmed all the time?
Energy crashes
Why do I crash after busy weeks?
Anxiety
Is this burnout, anxiety, ADHD or something else?
Social exhaustion
Why do I crash after socialising?
Low motivation
Why do small tasks feel impossible?
Sensory overload
Why am I sensitive to noise when tired?
Burnout
Is this burnout, anxiety, ADHD or something else?
Brain fog
Why do I have brain fog?
Sleep changes
Why has my sleep changed?
From “what is happening?” to “what am I noticing?”
Make sense of what’s changing.
You don’t have to hold it all in your head. Give your experiences somewhere to sit alongside each other.
Why did I cope yesterday but not today?
Compare today with your own recent days. Capacity can change, even when the task looks the same.
What helps me recover?
Record what drains you and what feels restorative. Keep helpful strategies in your toolkit so they are easier to find next time.
See how it works
Your days.
A little more context.
Record what today feels like. Then see the shifts that are hard to spot from memory alone.
Your Insights view brings recorded signals together. It offers questions to explore, without deciding what your experience means for you.
- Capture energy, sleep and sensory load
- Add everyday context in your journal
- Keep recovery strategies close by
Optional and Premium-only. Free includes 7-day Insights.
- 01
Record
Start with today
Check in with your energy, sleep, stress and sensory load. A small snapshot is enough to begin.
- 02
Add context
Leave yourself a little detail
A busy room. A difficult conversation. A quiet break. Your journal holds the details a number cannot explain.
- 03
Notice patterns
Return when you can
As your records build, look for what appears around easier and harder days. Free shows 7 days; Premium adds the longer view.
Each check-in gives your future self something to look back on. Gaps are okay; useful observations depend on what you record, not a perfect routine.
From lived experience

Is this for me?
Start where
you are.
You don’t need a diagnosis to start.
For adults aged 18 and over, whether you are diagnosed, questioning or simply trying to understand your days.
- You keep crashing and want to understand the lead-up.
- Your capacity feels different from one day to the next.
- Sensory or social demands take more out of you than expected.
- You’re finding your way after diagnosis or burnout.
- You want self-understanding without another productivity target.
A self-reflection tool, not a test for ADHD, autism or any condition.
Built from lived experience
A tool for understanding yourself.
After burnout at 42 and an AuDHD diagnosis at 43, Steve Chatfield wanted somewhere to see the patterns that were felt but hard to explain. AuDHD Companion grew from that need: a calmer place for your own story, at your own pace.
