How do you deal with memory issues?

2 years ago by r4venw to c/ADHD

In the last few years, my symptoms have improved in one area (task completion) but have severely worsened in another: short term memory. In fact, it's become so bad that I can't even remember what I just said a moment before 9 times out of 10, not just what others may have said.

How do you deal with remembering things like that?

Writing things down, especially in meetings, is really difficult for me because I end up spending more time typing and less time thinking about what people are saying.

To give somewhat an answer to your question since I don't see any constructive replies. For me, if it isn't written down, it didn't happen. Someone might ask me 10 times to complete a task and I'll still manage to forget, now either I write it down or tell them to text me. At work I took copious notes and organized them in OneNote for easy reference later.
