        Mate I’ve forgotten the concept of eating food, I’ve misplaced my phone that I was holding 30 seconds ago, I’ve not been able to recall every card in any of my magic the gathering decks from memory ever since I started playing about 10 years ago.

        I’ve forgotten what I was talking about mid sentence because I had to get a sip of water. You can forget about anything with ADHD, just different people remember things differently. I can recall my partner’s favorite colors and hobbies, I can barely recall my own favorite media I saw.

          Having to look in the fridge when searching for my phone is one of the things that is never not funny to my friends

          Something that worked for me was to fill it when I think about it rather than at the end of the week when it’s empty, now I never seem to forget it outside of some bad weeks.

      What about those fidget popping things? Label each with a day press in the day when you take a pill. Then just flip it over when the week starts over.

      I keep a bottle of Irn Bru or something else too revolting to forget washing the pills down with next to the pills.

      I don’t! I also have a task reminder, and I sometimes still forget. I finally got every day one week in December. Then, 5 weeks later, I missed every day. It sucks!
