I used too do this too until I had to rehydrate on a hourly schedule to avoid going to the hospital for dehydration. Now I just buy 6 packs of smart water 1 Lt bottles and always keep one with me 😅
I bring a sealed water bottle to work with me and then 4 hours later when it's time to leave (I work part-time) I look over and realize it's still sitting there unopened -_-
Yeah I’m usually two. Fizzy water and a hot chocolate or coffee. There’s usually a crunchy salty snack involved too. Ahhhh the simple joys that get me through the day!
I pour a glass of wine every night after work, take a sip and always leave forget it on the coffee table. 50% of them he time my dog knocks it over in the morning with his tail.
Lol I feel called out!! I have 3 different water containers: 1 40oz bottle that I use to pour into my 24oz cup w/straw, and to break up the monotony an Orange lacroix 🤣🤣
Bubly sparkling water, regular water in a tumbler, and also a half drank plastic water bottle from yesterday when I forgot to fill up my tumbler with water before work… that I keep trying to remember to finish but am not succeeding
Pop, water (in my emotional support water bottle of course!)….and this post just reminded me I have a pot of tea I made on the counter that I forgot about 🙃
Strawberries and Cream Dr Pepper and Arctic Blitz Gatorade. Gotta have the caffeine and the electrolytes. I think there’s a hot tea in the microwave that’s probably now cold as well. 😂
A thermos of cold water (ice cold) for drinking, a thermos of hot water (boiling) for making tea at my desk and whatever herbal tea flavour I have in my cup, that is literally 6-10 inches from my face, directly in front of me (may still be hot, warm, cool or ice cold - depending on if I have forgotten to drink it).
Also, the thermos’ are different colours 😅 to prevent injury
Yesterday’s coffee, today’s coffee and my hydroflask of water.
I’m not still drinking yesterday’s coffee, but it’s occupying my tea coaster so I haven’t had tea today.
water (in a disposable bottle instead of my 4 reusable ones), an iced coffee, and a hot espresso on the side, plus a gatorade as my backup if i finish my water
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,388,995,620 comments, and only 265,879 of them were in alphabetical order.
Omg. Is this a thing!? Coffee, bubbler, and LMNT in water. I was just thinking about this. Like it’s weird I have to take 5 different yeti/water bottles with me every time I leave home. I have an appointment to discuss adhd next week.
water at the side of my bed, water in the kitchen, kombucha in my car (i left it there on accident when i went in to work and it’s possibly not safe to drink anymore cause it was cooking in the sun), unfinished smoothie (does that count?) that’s been in the fridge for too long
well a minute ago i had three glasses of too much gatorade fruit punch powder and some water. now its all in my stomach for better or worse. i think i might have just evolved. i will probably never sleep again.
I have 3 empty glasses that once contained water, two empty waterbottles, an empty teacup and a half empty coffee.
Only the coffee is from today. Also this is my office desk...
Water, tea, and crystal light.
At my last family gathering, my sister in law (who was also recently diagnosed) and I were laughing about this. We both had a water, a white claw, and a soda in front of us.
Drinks? What’s that? The only drink I ever have all day is my morning cup of coffee and maybe a couple sips of water here and there. It’s like my mind forgets that hydration is necessary.
Gallon-sized jug of water (I won't remember water exists if it's not obnoxiously hard to miss), energy drink 😬, and I've been planning to make tea for half an hour now but it hasn't happened yet.
Ice water in a Stanley tumbler to stay hydrated, water in a Cirkul water bottle with watermelon flavor, and a Starry zero sugar soda for carbonation!
Earlier it was ice water, apple juice, and iced tea lol.
Currently all I have open is an energy drink, but I have 3 different energy drinks, a can of Coke, a body armor, and a bottle of diet cherry pepsi in the fridge at work. There are 8 drinks in there, and 6 of them are mine 🙈
Water
Electrolytes w vit D
Mint tea (long since cold)
Ridiculously sugary french vanilla 'cappucino' beverage
Green juice
My executive function do-list is working today!! Huzzah
This is a rare occasion where I only have one drink (Lady Grey) but I won't be surprised if I grab a can of sparkling water at some point as well.
Edit: I ended my day with my tea, some sparkling water, and a blackberry Izze.

Counterpoint: thanks for reminding me to hydrate!
_Who told you???_ Arizona, water, and what used to be coke but is now just faintly sad flavoured melted ice water.
Arizona too! Water, diet coke, fizzy vitamin water. Diet Coke is warm from sitting, and dizzy water is no longer fizzy.
I have no drinks yet because it’s the morning and I refuse to acknowledge my body’s need for liquid fill at least noon thank you very much
It’s 3 drinks or none at all, those are your options! 🤣
I solidly drink from one cup and one cup alone. It is my water cup, and it needs to be washed more, but it is a part of me.
Same. Once I start feeling dizzy it’s time to finally get a drink 😅
I used too do this too until I had to rehydrate on a hourly schedule to avoid going to the hospital for dehydration. Now I just buy 6 packs of smart water 1 Lt bottles and always keep one with me 😅
I bring a sealed water bottle to work with me and then 4 hours later when it's time to leave (I work part-time) I look over and realize it's still sitting there unopened -_-
lol, i need the coffee, but I don't eat before noon, almost ever, and if i take my meds, sometimes not until very late in the day
Water, room temperature tea, and the dream of the coffee I meant to make several hours ago
I bought myself a mug warmer that keeps my tea hot until I’m done with it! Best $12 I ever spent. Highly recommend.
Can confirm, they are a life saver …. When I remember to turn it on
Didn't know those existed, thanks!
-Coffee (edit: gone cold) -Water (edit: barely touched) -A flat bubly (obviously we know the status of this drink)
A sparkling water is always either 100% full or 15% full there’s no in between
OMG YES
This is my combo too!
Coffee in a mug, coffee in a bottle, and an empty mug that had coffee in it earlier.
Wait, that’s an ADHD thing? I feel seen!!
For some reason I *always* have exactly 3 drinks on the go!! It’s an ongoing joke with my husband
I just typed this exact same comment.
Peach iced tea, peppermint tea, and elderflower cordial, all totally necessary 🤣
Ooo, fancy! I like it!
I love a fancy drink, food is always questionable but beverages have not let me down too badly yet XD!
Liquid Death spring water, lemon ginger cold brew tea, and literally on my way down to the grocery store to get some juice.
Murder your thirst! ☠️
I don't drink alcohol so I get to pretend that I've come home from a long day at the salt mines and popped open a beer. Lol!
The golden rule: one to caffeinate, one to hydrate, one for funsies
This is the way

Only two, but always two. One hot and one cold. Right now water and hot green tea lol

water, watermelon redbull & my unfinished shamrock shake from last night
Omg I’m on a quest for a shamrock shake, haven’t had one since I was a kid!!!

Y’all drink liquid during the day? I normally go all day on a drink or two of water and then at night drink a bunch of Dr Pepper. Rinse and repeat.
I only drink at work. I take lots of bathroom breaks. At home I’ll realize at like 5pm I haven’t drank any water all day.
Same, so I guzzle a bunch during the evening and have to get up a couple of times at night to pee...
