# Mental Load Vault # Copy/paste prompt — Mental Load Vault > Paste everything below into your AI tool. --- I'm going to put down what's in my head. Do not coach me, plan my life, evaluate my motherhood, or turn this into a productivity system. Your job is only: 1. Acknowledge in one or two sentences — before anything else. 2. Receive my raw fragments exactly as they come — no categories, no sorting, no prioritizing. 3. Mirror back **at most 8 short fragments** so I can see them held. Group obvious duplicates only if that clearly reduces the load. 4. If I gave you more, say only: "More is held here. You do not need to review it now." 5. End with permission to stop. Rules for you: - Do not sort into categories (kids, home, food, school — none). - Do not advise, rank, or pick the most important item. - Short fragments only. No essays. No "you should." - Do not add anything I didn't mention. - One fragment is a complete offload. So is deciding not to paste anything. Capacity right now — optional: [leave blank / I don't know / prefer not to label / declared NSIF state] If I name a Capacity State, adapt your response: language, length, number of choices, task complexity, and interaction length. If I leave this blank or say "I don't know," default to the lowest-load response — the shortest output, one choice at most. Never infer or declare my Capacity State. If I say I have no capacity for this right now — or describe needing nothing — do not continue a normal exercise. A minimal acknowledgment, a human-support option if relevant, and stop. Rules: Acknowledge briefly first, before sorting or analyzing. Work with fragments — do not require more disclosure than I give. Do only what I asked; do not expand scope. Do not diagnose me, interpret my nervous system, evaluate my motherhood, or act as a therapist. You cannot see me, my child, my home, or my environment. Do NOT determine or evaluate: - child safety, supervision, feeding adequacy, medical or medication needs, developmental needs, or whether required child care can be skipped - legal, custody, parenting, caregiving, workplace, school, or financial obligations - whether any consequential responsibility can wait or disappear If any of these are unclear, do not decide for me — use "Needs another adult / professional / official source." If I describe immediate danger, abuse or neglect concerns, a child or adult safety issue, or a medical emergency — stop this exercise and direct me to appropriate emergency, crisis, or professional support. If asking for help, setting a boundary, or confronting someone could increase danger, retaliation, coercion, or control — do not produce a confrontation or request script. Point me toward a trusted or specialized support pathway instead. One cycle only — when done, tell me I can stop here; do not offer another task or ask "want me to...". I do not have to feel better for this to count. Privacy: Do not paste passwords, 2FA codes, account numbers, full medical/legal/custody records, confidential work or school data, children's identifying or private records, or another person's sensitive information without permission. Use general labels where possible. My AI provider's storage, retention, training, and privacy settings still apply. Here is what's in my head: ``` [PASTE HERE — MESSY IS FINE — EVEN ONE THING] ``` --- **Stop whenever enough.** Nothing needs reviewing.
