I had add/adhd, and I was on ritalin for the longest time and then some other meds too. When I turned 18 I moved out on my own and never took meds again. I am 38 now and still have shoulder twitches and other symptoms of hyperactivity, I ofter forget my keys or basic things. I cope with the twitching by telling my self that I did not do this to me. I was born with this condition and will control what I can. IF the conditions are causing work or personal issues then you should try talking about some meds, as far as the remembering things, I make sure I pay attention to what I am doing when I do it. Usually tell myself what I'm doing with whatever item it is. Reminding myself has helped me to forget about taking meds, BUT yes there's a BUT in here. My symptoms has dropped a lot. I mean a lot. I am 38 and they have subsided quite a bit. I hope they will subside for you too. If they don't talk about things you can do to stimulate your mind to keep busy with things you like to do and that has helped me manage my adhd. Just remember you are worth a lot more than you will ever know. Just being able to express your thoughts and allow others to listen and speak is aewsome. Thanks for sharing.Hope this helps
