The paradox of #ADHD is that remembering to take your meds can be difficult to do before your meds have had a chance to kick in.
And God help you if you forget to refill them...

Content warning: ADHD tip (anecdotal evidence)
I recently went back from a smartwatch to a cheap Casio F-91W. For all the fancy features it lacks, it does have one that my smartwatch didn't: the ability to give me a quick beep every hour on the hour. This has been incredibly useful in combatting time blindness (a common #ADHD symptom). The lack of added distractions doesn't hurt either.

That said, at least for WearOS devices with speakers, there's plenty of apps to do hourly chimes.
I've been meaning to look into an old, cheap Pebble watch to replace my Huawei Watch 2 (been having charging/battery issues despite just replacing the battery less than a year ago) and despite not having speakers, apparently they can do an hourly vibration alert. Just an FYI.
I don't think I could ever completely remove myself from the smartwatch ecosystem but I'm definitely up for culling back the distractions some.
