I will barely eat for like 3-days and then have to gorge the 4th day to make up for it. I think I might be part snake.

u/seahorse1234_ 15d ago

u/PnutButterJellyTim3 14d ago

u/TVLord5 15d ago

Can I trade with one of you "forget to eat" guys? I can't stop snacking...like ever. If I'm not so full I feel sick then my brain thinks I'm hungry

u/DiekeDrake 14d ago

Yes, I also want to have this power.

u/grogschleme 14d ago

u/TVLord5 14d ago

u/kofasx 15d ago

Hey thanks for the reminder

u/LunarSanctum 14d ago

Another thanks here too.

Time for a bowl of cereal packed with all the sugar I will need to keep my body vibrating and shaking through the night at a rate that leaves me convinced that I might die at any second. Until the same time tomorrow night, when I'm again reminded to eat food by Reddit users whilst I'm sat on the toilet.

u/sleepiesnake 15d ago

u/MorrighanAnCailleach 15d ago

I have AuDhD, so that's me. Also, I'm on a diet, so that's kinda necessary.

u/execDysfunctionGumbo 15d ago

Why am I shaking?

Did you eat today?

...

Jesus Christ. You would literally die without me.

I love you!

3am here. Had my breakfast at 10am , forgot my other meals. Just having some food because I've been laying in bed since 11pm trying to get an early night because I haven't been getting enough sleep. Brain had other ideas

u/_Batteries_ 15d ago

Hasn't happened in a long time, cuz Im married now... but, when I was single, there were times I almost fainted, and then...oh yeah, I haven't eaten since yesterday morning....

u/Female_titan_2 15d ago

Then ends up bingeing everything in sight

3

u/Happy-For-No-Reason AuDHD diagnosed 15d ago

I'll eat breakfast 2-3 times a day because my brain thinks it's the first meal every time

2

u/McHagrid20 15d ago

So are you guys in a deep hyperfocus often or you just don’t feel hunger/get moody when you haven’t eaten? I don’t feel hunger much myself, but I get irritated af when I skip a meal.

2

u/danfish_77 14d ago

Or I remember but I kept getting distracted

2

u/deathbygluten_ 14d ago

this is why i often end up eating cheese and crackers after midnight

2

u/Foreign-Weight-2 14d ago

I think it is not forgetting it is permanently there but too little time and less importance than anything you see in front of you.

2

u/Hexnohope 14d ago

My brain makes me forget i ate so i eat again all day until the house is empty 😭 i can be hungry while so full i cant put anything else in my mouth

2

u/samuelandsienna 14d ago

Honestly I wish I didn’t have to eat most of the time 😭

2

u/theSpookyMouse 14d ago

Ryan gosling won't eat his cereal 💔

u/FthrFlffyBttm Still a disaster but at least I know why! 🙃 13d ago

u/JuicePlusPlusPlus 15d ago

u/SprAwsmMan 15d ago

Sometimes I feel hunger, but get distracted.

u/Gemethystine Executive at Dysfunction Inc. 14d ago

I operate by a sporadic sleep schedule, but I'm generally more active during the nighttime. It's always been my preferred way of living, and I'll spend most of the night working on my academics or personal projects.

I'll be awake most of the night, sleep most of the day, then get out of bed in the evening. I don't eat a lot during the day and usually have my meals during the night (typically a dinner and a midnight snack).

It's currently 1AM, and I'm trying to get some sleep so I can start shifting my schedule to accommodate for my college semester. But that's a difficult task for my restless brain.

u/Bezulba 14d ago

Can i trade in my version of ADHD for the one you have? The only time i forget to eat is when i'm literally too ill to eat and that's happened about 5 times in my entire life.

I eat when i'm happy, i eat when i'm depressed, i eat when i'm bored or anxious or annoyed...

u/fritzkoenig Resident Cloudcuckoolander 14d ago

Worst one is feeling unwell due to hunger but preparing or even getting food is still too much to overcome executive dysfunction

u/Bubbly-Bar-7449 14d ago

Hey me too!

1

u/andocromn 14d ago

I want to say Thursday last week

1

u/rglurker 14d ago

I can't do that anymore. My body reminds me i need food by making me feel like shit

u/Civil-Cod-6984 13d ago

It’s 10:48 pm and this is me rn.

1

u/ZanderStarmute 13d ago

You know what really confuses me…?

How I’ll suddenly and without warning feel really hungry, enough to grab every bit of my attention…

…and then later, I’ll suddenly and without warning remember that I was really hungry a few hours ago 🫤

u/Actual-Toe-8686 13d ago

I always wondered why I forget to drink all day even though I am thirsty

u/TraderJosie3283 [even my cats want me to shut up😹] 13d ago

Ryan Gosling actually does have ADHD so this is probably accurate 😆
