What is(are) the resource(s) to inform "i just realized i skipped my meds" or "i fell" or "i don't feel well"?
AdverseEvent with details? dedicated resources such as MedAdmin for "skipped meds"? Observation?

The answer depends on what's expected to happen to the information, who's going to consume it and how.

AdverseEvent, Observation, MedicationAdministration or maybe even Communication are all possible, depending on context.

even MedStatement

I agree with @Eric Haas MedicationStatement could be used to say "I did not take this medication"

ok thanks @Eric Haas @Melva Peters @Lloyd McKenzie That provides me the direction to follow . there is no overarching resource that encompasses this. Each type of event will have its resource.
and yes, I could use MedStatement instead of MedAdmin, but since this is for a patient to say "i missed my 12h00 meds" i was considering a single MedAdmin (status=not-done). Thoughts?

Yes, that's appropriate
