Totally get that — the “open loops stick around, then randomly resurface months later” feeling is very ADHD-coded.
A lightweight trick that doesn’t require a whole new system: When you act on something, add a single closure line at the top of the note: Done: <what happened> — <date> — <where to find it>
It turns the note from “still open?” into “closed loop” in 5 seconds, and future-you stops re-processing it.
If you had to pick one, which is more ADHD-painful for you: too many open loops, or losing track of where the finished thing ended up?
