+# Executive Function Bot
+A work in progress Telegram bot to help people with Executive Function Disorder (ADD and ADHD) with certain tasks that are more difficult than they need to be.
+
+For instance:
+- Remembering to Eat regularly
+- Tracking their feelings over time
+- Prioritizing and remembering tasks
+
+This is very much a work in progress and I would be thrilled to have others working with me on this. Feel free to fork this bot for your own needs and to submit Pull Requests to add functions.
