    I’ve probably only forgotten to take my HRT like a couple times in the last few months. I did accidentally miss my allergy medicine a couple days ago. Never have gotten any medication for ADHD though - my mom was against it when I was a toddler and a doctor tried to prescribe it and I haven’t bothered trying it on my own. Getting a new diagnosis as an adult seems annoying and expensive.

      I read a stronger implication that you have psychosis than anything else - which is still not cool, for what it’s worth.

        Was wondering if they’d get more explicit with what they were implying. Probably not after having a couple people point out how its problematic, but they also got a some upvotes from people who might just be upvoting all replies to my comment.

        Still, the ADHD stream-of-conscious posting probably doesn’t help. I’m reminded of the jokes about English classes forcing students to give some explanation of the “meaning” of small details in stories even if the author actually intended no such thing.
