Note- these memory issues make gaslighting a BIG DANGER for ADHD folks. My tip is: Have important convos through text. Because otherwise you might be told the conversation was completely different than you remember, and you believe them because, well, your memory sucks https://twitter.com/adhd_alien/status/1280513104980455424

Another semi related thing- my love language is now “giving and receiving gifts” because having something TANGIBLE to back up a memory really helps it remain clear in my mind

And it feels so superficial saying that- like “I need presents”, but after being gaslit so much, I now rely on things outside of my body to validate my memory
