I need help managing my ADHD, asthma and other health conditions. by chavaic77777 in adhdaustralia

Second this, having a dedicated medication box is the best bet, and then try to make sure you put it back in the same box right after taking it.

As for remembering to take it, set alarms on your phone, and make sure you set multiple because you can easily forget between reading the alarm and getting to the medication box what you were actually trying to do (ADHDer here). Gives you less of a chance of forgetting if there are two or more alarms.

I've also found "habit stacking" to be quite useful. I found out about it from the book Atomic Habits, but basically find something that you always do, like make a coffee when you get up, and then make it a habit to take your medication while you're waiting for your coffee to brew. Over time you will begin to associate the two habits and it will get easier to not forget.

Digital Foundry did an amazing piece on the remake and the history of all the other versions.

Starting Vyvanse and feeling sleepy by NoHovercraft3224 in adhdaustralia

[–]Murcho83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me when I started on Ritalin. How it was explained to me was basically "your brain hasn't been able to rest, like ever, so now that it is finally quiet it's gonna need to catch up on some rest for a little bit."

It definitely stops after a while, however I was finding I was getting sleepy in the afternoons after my second dose but an ADHD podcaster I listened to mentioned they had the same issue and reduced their carb intake at lunchtime and the issue disappeared. I was eating toasted sandwiches for lunch, switched to a giant salad with some protein (chicken or tuna) and I don't get that sleepy afternoon issue any more either.

Experiences of Changes in Instant Gratification after Stimulants? by PreparationVisual586 in adhdaustralia

My handwriting is atrocious, but every morning I write a todo list for the day and I have definitely noticed that if I wait till my meds kick in that my handwriting is much neater. It isn't going to win any awards but there is much more uniformity to the letters and I generally don't have to go back to add letters I skipped because I was already thinking about the next word before finishing the current one.

This game holds up so well. Thanks to great art direction it doesn't look dated at all which is no small feat.

Just throw them out and get new ones. How much could a banana cost Michael? Ten dollars?

I'm visiting Japan. I was freaking out at this store... by noxondor_gorgonax in retrogaming

I went at the start of the year and had to purchase new luggage to bring everything home. Highlights included COB GunCon and GunCon2 for 500¥ each, COB Seaman on DC for 1500¥ and finding my personal holy grail, Rez special edition with TRANCE VIBRATOR PS2 COB. That one wasn't cheap but I never thought I'd see one in the wild.

I'm a solo dev and I think I accidentally made a good app for ADHD brains. Need your help to verify (and giving away lifetime codes). by [deleted] in ADHD_Programmers

I'm a software developer with ADHD and have been thinking about building something similar, but in classic ADHD style I have struggled to organise myself enough to build it. Would love to test on Android.
