Neuro Tools, a collection of tools to help neurodivergent people

As someone with ADHD, depression and on the autism spectrum, I get in my head A LOT. Every time I run into an issue I create a tool for it. - I should post on Hacker News, but my app is not good enough > challenge my inner critic. - I want to binge eat instead of working > use the catch the urge feature and follow a strategy - Task is too overwhelming > task breakdown and copy the tasks to my notepad - I really don't want to get started on a task > procrastination solver Would love your feedback and any questions are welcome :)

In plain words

Neuro Tools is a collection of utilities designed for neurodivergent individuals managing ADHD, depression, and autism. It includes features like an inner critic challenger to combat self-doubt, an urge catcher to redirect impulses away from unhelpful behaviors, a task breakdown tool to simplify overwhelming work, and a procrastination solver to help with task initiation. The tools were created by someone working through their own neurodivergent challenges and are designed to address common obstacles these individuals encounter daily.

    Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…

    Hi HN! First time posting. I created a tool for my Autistic son who is in high school junior battling severe ADHD symptoms. His difficulties include; 1. Time blindness 2. Lack of executive functioning skills 3. Task initiation issues These three were severely affecting his grades. We had a consultation with a Developmental Psychologist who prescribed Concerta that improves his ability to focus in class. In addition he also has the boilerplate ADHD accommodations(2X time on tests and quiet place to take the test). These collectively improved his test taking abilities. But, when it came to his…

    Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
