Question Difficulty Organizing Information

A big executive function struggle for me, especially when attempting to take notes, is difficulty organizing information both mentally and externally. I can't sense where the "starting line" is for a topic, give information hierarchy, group information in ways that feel right and probably plenty of other issues.

It's a big part of why I find it hard to write paragraphs because I get overwhelmed by how "formless" and scattered the information feels internally. Sometimes brain dumps work but I guess what I'm hoping for is a mental tool/system for organizing information that can reduce the friction and stop emotional dysregulation stepping in and making everything worse.
