    I have ADHD so I get rid of most problems by literally tying things to myself. I have a second belt which goers over my pants and have a hip bag attached to it. In that I have the following;

    Disposable nitrile gloves (3-4 pairs)

    Hand sanitiser

    Power bank (10000mAh)

    USB C cable

    Thumb drives (one with kids shows, one with software, one blank)

    USB A to C adapter

    Wallet

    ID lanyard

    Emergency cash (not in wallet because if I lose my wallet I still have my cash)

    Tissues

    Aspirin, paracetamol, and ibuprofen

    Ritalin

    Plastic bags for rubbish

    Nasal inhaler (for blocked nose, long term issue)

    Car and house keys (attached on a clip, not inside)

    Then I have my pockets for phones (I have 2), wireless headphones, and anything else for the day.

    By keeping my keys attached I cannot get in the car without my belt bag.

    Earbuds.

    I recently took up running, and when I did that I decided I was just going to wear my smartwatch and earbuds. I leave my phone in the house, I leave my keys in the garage (there’s a keypad on the garage door), I don’t even take the case for the earbuds.

    When I go out for any reason other than running, I always take my phone, wallet, keys, earbuds, chapstick, a pen, and nail clippers. (I don’t know why on that last one, but I’ve had a pair for my whole adult life, except when traveling by plane, and they come in handy a lot). I usually also wear my watch, but sometimes I forget to charge it and it has to stay on the charger.

    So the only common item in those two lists is the earbuds.

    In the vein of your positive attitude, I also try to always take with me a realization that everyone else is fighting a battle, too.

      Not sure what kind of watch and phone you have, but I just discovered that I can charge my watch from my phone using the wireless charging capability of the phone. I’ve owned both for 4 years now. (Both Samsung)

    I keep most of my “EDC” stuff in my bag — chapstick, keys, hand sani, etc.

    If I’m going out for a while and I expect it to get dark, I like to pack a flashlight.

    I used to carry a knife but sometimes it makes going into bars and clubs awkward so I usually leave it at home now

      Shit! Good point I also never leave without my glasses. I also never have them off if I’m awake. Shoulda thought of that.

        Above and beyond that, in my wallet I keep an emergency prescription glasses lens which I ground down to clip into a keyring.

        The indent in my wallet looks like a condom LOL! But no, it’s an emergency lens in case I lose my glasses or something…

    It depends on what we’re doing and where we’re going. If it’s something quick or I’m going to be busy while I’m there, then I’ll just take a pair of headphones and two of my android devices, one to listen to music on the way there and back, and another to play games while I’m there if I can. If we’re going to be gone for a while, I’ll take all of my android devices, my controller, a keyboard and mouse, my tablet stand, and some USB cables and adapters. I would take some other devices, but for right now, android devices are the only portable devices I have that I actively use.

    Nothing. Every single item is dependent of what I am doing.

    If I go for a walk, the only thing I will bring with me is my dog and a leash (maybe some dog treats.)

  • It’s funny, for years my list was keys, wallet, and phone, and of those it’s the keys that go back the furthest. I had a key to my parents house when I was a young teen, and I’ve always carried keys with me since (I’m in my 60s now). I sold my house a couple months ago, and I’ve been living in a hotel until I close on a condo, and it feels so strange not to own any keys now, just the key card for the hotel.
