These are great tips. I generally don’t take long term medication other than allergy pills, which don’t have side effects like this and I’m very new to Adderall, so this is very helpful.

My wife has to remind me often to eat food because I just forget.

Ironically just started taking Adderall for ADHD and a common side effect is that it kills your appetite and people forget to eat.

Then you realize that you’ve been only paying attention to yourself repeating this in your head and have been mindlessly nodding and saying “yeah” for the last 3 minutes to the other person and have no idea what they are talking about now.
