I just realized that last month was ADHD awareness month and I forgot. Ironic isn’t it? Share your stories of stuff you remembered way too late!
Halloween always sneaks up on me. We forgot to get pumpkins this year!
I just remembered a girl’s name that I used to work with.
I was trying to remember it about 3 months ago. It randomly just came to me today.
my roommate asked if one of my roommates was gone the other day and like a day later i was working out and was like OH SHIT HE DID GO SOMEWHERE I GOTTA TELL MY ROOMMATE
ofc he’d figured that out by then
im not sure if i have adhd tho I’ve never seen a psychiatrist and haven’t been to a doctor since i was 18 (im 21) coz poor
oh god I was gonna be frustrated if it was November. I don’t feel like constantly battling misinfo
Ironically, last month was when my pharmacy informed me that there’s a shortage. AGAIN.
I was supposed to be at a course at 9, two hours away. Was reminded by outlook 8.45. Gee thanks Outlook, very helpful.
Worst part, is that you come off as lazy, a slack or stupid for forgetting something that neurotypical would never forget.
I don’t think Outlook allows for that but I think some calendar systems allow for several reminders for the same event (e.g. 1 week before, 1 day before, a couple of hours and 15 minutes). I haven’t used those kinds of systems in a while, I have a pretty uneventful life, but I remember using it some year ago
I normally add stuff like this to my private Google calendar for that exact reason… But I forgot…
I get you, believe me. We can have systems in place to help us but sometimes stuff just falls through the cracks.
Sounds about right XD
This is the first time I remember hearing of it.
Also I just remembered yesterday that I forgot to go to a conference my boss invited me to… on the 17th of Oct…
My sister had the great idea to ask me to celebrate her wedding. I forgot to file the paperwork 4 months in advance. Then I forgot to file the paperwork after the fact too.
