    Oh man, I’ve got my nighttime routine down pat. I eat a couple pieces of fruit, floss, smoke a j with my husband, brush my teeth, wash my face, turn the heat off, and then put on face lotion, lip balm, foot lotion, and hand lotion before getting into bed. Every single night.

    Do I ever remember to eat breakfast, wash my face, and brush my teeth in the morning? Maybe once a month.

          I think it is probably a good idea medically speaking but you likely know that. I’ve got that down as part of my routine. But perhaps it would help to write a sticky note and stick it to something you need as part of your morning activities already. Of course you need to remember to do both things then and if you’re anything like me you’ll forget (what) to write (on) the sticky note.

        Hi, I too forget to brush my teeth but I downvoted you because you’re being patronising as fuck. Have a nice day.

            What are you trying to do when you say that, like a parent trying to make their child brush their teeth? Do you HONESTLY think anyone here isn’t aware that dental hygiene is important and hasn’t tried a billion ways (including begging and pleading with themselves) to get themselves to do this normal thing that normal people do with ease? Don’t you think the problem MIGHT lie elsewhere, in this community about a neurodivergence? Do you need to read up on what ADHD is?

    Try this.

    Put your toothbrush, tooth paste, floss, and the moisturizer in one box. If you go to brush your teeth you’ll also see the moisturizer.

        No but seriously, this is an issue. I usually at least use the toilet (because obvious bodily signal) before going to bed which, due to the layout of the bathroom, means I have no choice but to look at the spot where my toothbrush is. I also do have the decency to remember to wash my hands which means even more time spent looking in that direction. I STILL manage to not see the toothbrush and forget to brush. Anything not moving and/or yelling merges with the background noise. *confused T-rex noises*
