MODERATORS
Make the best use of your medicated time to build routines for consistency, which in my case helped even after the meds wore off (eventually). Putting keys and wallet in the same space actually stuck after taking meds!
Other than that, do consider that the meds won't work all day so plan around them. Work and home upkeep while they are working is great, downtime for things like games or winding down after they wear off. It won't cause motivation to do things you want to do while it is working, but it sure helps with barriers!
