Ok all you ADD & ADHD ers......did everyone forget to take their medication today, or the past week? Is that why there are never any posts here?
   I'd like to know that I'm not the only one who forgets what day it is; and or starts scrubbing a floor for so long, so hard that you chaff a layer of skin off your knees -- had to something....couldn't stand just doing writing exercises!!    How does one do when your brain is doing 90 nmph in the morning & you've got stacks of things you could do, but you just can't turn off the radio in your head along w/ a thousand other thoughts hitting dead-ends? Can anyone relate?  Internet addiction? Agoraphobia? Can't think..,Adderall XR, half the time it puts me asleep......or I   Talk to me!  DAYZEE9

{{{{Dayzee}}}}} I forget my meds everyday. I just decided today that I will make a big sign and put it on my bathroom mirror to remind me to take my morning med. Then I will set my cell phone alarm for 4 hours later to remind me to take my next pill. I have got to start taking my ADD meds. My brain is a blender!!
Let's hear it from you other ADD sufferers. How do you remember to take your meds? Hugs, Kelly |

Lol as far as I know I don't have ADD or ADHD, but I can relate to some of that.

Hi,
I am diagnosed ADHD; I take Wellbutrin, and some monings I get 1/2 way to work, and then the thought occurs to me, "Did I take my meds?" "I don't remember taking them"; but I'm not sure, so I face the decision of going home at lunch to take them and possibly overdose, or just drink coffee, and go through the day. At times, I compromise and go home, take 1/2 my normal dosage, so, I wouldn't really overdose, and I might just have a smaller dose than normal for the day. I have a pill-box that you can place the meds in for each day, but I forget to use it. OK, I just found it, maybe I'll start using it tomorrow (that means I have to fill it NOW, and then place it on top of the coffee-maker, so I remember to use it in the morning). Does this thought process seem familiar at all??
