What about accumulative lost income, It's taken me significantly longer to finish education and I've had long gaps in employment, I've not been able to build a stable career.

This!! The big one for me is forgetting I’ve made lunch and having to buy lunch out. I only buy out now, because I actually save money by not buying groceries for lunch

takeaways twice a week because you can't face to cook after a long week, replacing broken things because you're so clumsy, not reading things properly when buying. The list goes on 😢
