mine is pretty boring because this is an area i tend to struggle with, but i keep all my deoderant/moisturisers/etc in the same place and right in my eye line when i wake up so I don& #39;t have to spend ages looking for them while i& #39;m getting ready
i got a DM asking me to add this one anonymously:
if I can’t get myself to brush my teeth, I’ll wipe my teeth down with a washcloth to wipe some of the plaque off, I feel surprisingly cleaner afterward

here& #39;s another anonymous one :)
Taking my clonidine right before I brush my teeth, which associates the taste of toothpaste with the lull of sleep.
I still get a Pavlovian wave of sleepiness whenever I taste anything peppermint-flavored.

I keep my deodorant in the drawer where I keep my bras. Then I can go bra-> deodorant-> shirt and it’s all in one place!
It could also go in the shirt drawer if someone doesn’t wear bras all the time or ever
