When do the meds stop helping you just focus on being dumb!

So, yes I’m on medication and yes they help exponentially. I’m on 10mg IR right now but have been on 10 or 15mg XR and then 2x5mg boosters during the day if needed. Adderall also.

But anyway, when do my meds help me stop focusing on being dumb. Sure I don’t feel like I’m going to explode at any moment or blurt out something dumb, and I don’t feel the need to be a court jester or shake my body to get my wiggles out but you know what I DO feel? Like oh, great, yes, I am focused, but I’m still disorganized, I am still forgetful of some things, I still have a hard time switching tasks, I still am dumb! It still takes me hard arduous work to retain information.

I know medication is not a cure all. I know other disorders are also likely for me but what skills is everyone using to help themselves not feel the deficit in attention deficit :( I am late diagnosed so I’m just now building these skills and just now learning I don’t have to do everything last minute and maybe that is not when my greatest ideas arise. I am just now learning to work with my sensory processing difficulties.
