Take my meds- man I never thought I was that different on or off meds until the recent ADHD medication shortage combined with some personal issues last Fall made me fall apart. My poor SO was worried sick because I was losing my damn mind, turns out I do not mask well. I didn’t realize that being properly medicated is as much of a public service as a personal one. May your meds always be available and well balanced.
Yeah …after about day 3 or 4 without meds, my short fuse is back and I’m just a ball of nervous, irritable energy. And can’t focus. Or motivate myself. I’m sure I am a pain in the ass normally let alone when off meds. Definitely a service to others to take it. Then there’s the anti depressants.
I’m the SO of someone with ADD who was similarly affected. It messed her up for months. Things are just getting back to normal now. On the bright side, she has less insomnia on the new meds.
Good on you for sticking by her while she was working it out. Changing medication is so hard and takes a while especially if you’re taking more than one kind. I am really happy you both got through it and that she found something better!
Take my cart from where people randomly left it or from the return and leave it in the store.
Tidy up my table and stack dishes when I eat out.
Park between the lines.
Put my cart on the side when shopping instead of leaving it in the middle of the aisle.
Pick up the dog poop other people don’t.
Pull forward product if it is shoved into the back of the shelf.
Hold open doors.
Pick up stuff that people accidentally drop, especially if they have kids or are elderly.
Leave intersections clear.
Let people merge.
Not park on the street when it snows.
Be polite to anyone working public facing, no matter how bad my mood is.
Take my meds.
Teach my kids to respect rules, even the ones that seem dumb.
Keep my dog leashed when not in a designated area.
Leave accurate and fair reviews.
Return ebooks early if someone is waiting.

Pick up the dog poop
Would you, by any chance, intend to move in my neighborhood???
I would kill for you.
Brother/sister from another mother! Boo ya!
Love helping people even when they dont know it.
I do most of that except the dog poop.
Respect and politeness, preach. You love to see it.
