Strange.. my adhd leads me to forget to eat. I get so absorbed in today's obsession that I wonder why I'm so fatigued at 1pm after not eating anything after a tiny breakfast.
Usually it’s around the time I’m struggling to catch my breath inside my head that I realize I’ve neglected to intake solids.
Like I’ll be rushing around at work and thinking to myself “okay I have to do this first, and then this, and then, this. and. Whew. I have a lot ahead of me—oh, I must be hungry/thirsty/fatigued”. Does that make sense? I can feel my brain actually start chugging.
