Outsider without adhd here... Is this really a thing? If the medication makes you feel better how would you forget to take it?

I often forget mine.

That, or I cannot, for the life of me, remember whether or not I actually took my medication. Or locked the door of my apartment, or my car.

Both patterns are a fairly classical presentation of ADHD.

I have a phone app (MediSafe IIRC) that has both reminders and tracking.

Though it's not 100% perfect. It's still easy sometimes to get distracted for too long.

Ah, but what happens when I take the medication, and then forget where my phone is, or to use the app, or get distracted by something on lem-

Oh no
