[quote=Anonymous]I have ADHD and am unmedicated. For me, the key is to do things the SECOND I think of them and to write myself notes in at least two places. Obviously I have more freedom of movement than a middle schooler, but for example, the second I realized I needed to bring home a sheet of paper, it'd go in my bag. If I routinely bring a lunch bag and water bottle into the cafeteria, I'd remind myself "you should always be holding two things each time you leave the cafeteria." I used to write things I needed to take home on my arm (hand sweats off pen) and check my arm at the end of the day before leaving school. Today I dropped something at the drycleaners to be fixed - I put the slip on my fridge, but also a reminder in my Outlook with a pop-up reminder. So even if I forget, my Outlook will remind me.
