Does anyone else have a terrible memory. And I mean like pretty bad. Because everyday I seem to be forgetting things so much so that it takes up way to much of my time. Just this morning while at school I grabbed a bottle of water from the cafeteria, set it down to get some napkins, and then walked off without it. I only just remembered that I had even bought water because I was so thirsty from the dry mouth that my ADD medication gives me. has anyone any idea how I can get this under control (and yes I get 9 hours of sleep every night, I’m not sleep deprived). Please help I’m loosing my mind literally…

      Just laugh it off my guy. I have really, Really severe adhd and I lose things constantly. You’ll only lose your mind if you let it. I’ve just learned to be like “welp there I go again I’m so adhd haha.” I not trying to minimize how frustrating short term memory loss is, because it will seriously drive you insane. That’s why you can’t take it or yourself to seriously with that stuff. Hope this helps even a little :)

      It's absolutely an ADHD thing--poor short term memory. I honestly haven't found much that I can do about it other than find ways to adapt to it.
