Even two choices can be too much for a struggling brain. It can help to try to eliminate one of the choices. The effort to compare two choices requires an ability to multi-task. You need to process both options at the same time.

It can help by asking the other person, "What is my first option?" Then evaluate that option and decide if it is acceptable. If not, then ask what the next choice is.

You may need to break down decisions like this until you have developed other work-arounds or accommodations.

You need the other person to understand your limits. If they do not understand or refuse to accept them, you may need to avoid the situation altogether.

You can also work through these kinds of decisions by having them in writing. Then you can sort of score each option.

Hope this helps.

My best to you all.
