    Absolutely. I personally prefer to stay off of medication, but I have some other advantages that help me level out the playing field, plus my ADHD is not the kind where the main thing is forgetfulness. I have that too of course. But honestly if I couldn’t hold a thought for 2 seconds, then that would not be viable for me. I’d need meds.

    I specifically want to say that a notebook, best with a thread to keep your place, is a billion times better than a phone, which you gotta unlock, scroll to find the apo, get a notification from duolingo, yells at you for low battery.

      I appreciate the advice but I also have neuropathy that has affected my hands pretty bad. So writing is a struggle for me.

      I tend to use a note app. Miss having a Samsung Note for the pen and had a Surface book from when I went to college that I used to take notes in class with the touch screen and pen but sadly the phone broke and couldn’t get a replacement while the laptop I need to find money for the charger which I lost in moving around a lot. Being able to copy paste and move things around was such a boon for me.

      Also the devices had good writing-to-text features which made the notes legible, lol
