Minimum Viable Self-Care
For when on bad days, showering, brushing teeth, or changing clothes feels impossible, and the gap between 'good days' and 'bad days' makes you feel worse
Steps
- Define your floor: the absolute minimum version of each task. Teeth: one swipe. Shower: a wet wipe wash. Clothes: fresh top
- Stock a 'bad day kit' in your bathroom: wet wipes, dry shampoo, mouthwash, deodorant, a fresh soft t-shirt
- Pair each task with something easier you already do: wipes after the loo, mouthwash while the kettle boils
- Track 'done at all', not 'done well'. A 30-second tooth brush counts. A wet-wipe day counts
- On good-enough days, do a slightly fuller version. Never punish yourself for using the floor option
What you need
A small bad-day kit kept visible, permission to do the minimum
Why it works
Hygiene tasks are sensory, sequencing, and motivation-heavy all at once. Defining a floor version removes the all-or-nothing thinking that ADHD and autistic brains can fall into, so something always happens.
Age guidance
Adults and older teens.
Real-world example
An autistic adult went days without showering during burnout, then felt worse. A box of wipes and a clean t-shirt on the chair meant 'bad days' still ended feeling marginally cared for, and full showers came back sooner.
Troubleshooting
- If even the floor feels too much, halve it again. Half a swipe is more than nothing
- If executive dysfunction means you can't start, set a 2-minute timer and only commit to that
- If self-care has been gone for weeks, that's a sign to ask for support, not to push harder alone
