My recommendation is a small thing: a trashcan with a swinging lid!...

I’ve been told by my provider that due to the worldwide shortage I have to try something else....

My wife brought ADHD Thrive Institute to our attention to help with our child (and me). We spoke with them over the phone but I’m getting a bad feeling about it, it feels very sales-y with their 3 step program, and they own brand of supplements etc… has anyone had experience with it?

Hey, it’s always fun to run after refills every months especially when it includes vacations like August. I ran out of meds 2 days ago and have to deal with myself for an entire week before I get a refill....

Been on Vyvanse 40mg for a few months now and am loving life. I’m more productive, happier, can focus better, eating less, etc....

I’m having such a hard time finding adderral at pharmacies around me. Is there any alternatives that still work well for you? I’m about to have a follow up with my doctor. Might ask about alternatives. I’m on 20mg adderral XR.

I’ve only just recently commenced medication and I’m finding the benefits a little noticeable. The real test will be returning to work soon after some leave....

Is it generally considered a bad idea to share with others that you have been diagnosed with ADHD? How have others handled sharing diagnosis information with friends, family, work, etc?

It’s my 3rd attempt at writing this so forgive me for being disorganized. I’ll try to keep it short....

I’ve been using the free version of Cold Turkey blocker on my Mac for a while now, but it doesn’t offer an iOS/iPad app, so there’s nothing to stop me from just picking up my phone to fuck about online when I should be working, so I’m not keen on spending £30 on the full app....

Hello, I am new here....

Did it work for you?...

I’ve seen some sources say that too high or low of pH levels can impact how well a stimulant is absorbed into your system. It seems the biggest source in regular diets, especially American diets, is citric acid. I enjoy many citric heavy juices, and also drink a lot of soda. Do you guys watch your citric acid intake about an...

I take notes and write up mini reviews on my laptop when I watch shows as its the only way I can follow what’s happening. Even with no distractions I tend to drift off into my thoughts....

It feels like everything is slowed down and nothing happens. I try to fill the time up with my hobbies and interests but can’t because they don’t feel satisfying on the weekend.

How bad are everyone else’s side effects? I currently take a 30mgXR in the morning and 10mgIR part way through the day. I can get some facial tics and other OCD like symptoms. They aren’t bad enough to lower my dose or make other changes at this point. Just wondering what others are experiencing and if anyone has any tips or...

I’m an hour early for the bus and trying to decide on what to eat so I can past the 2 hours until I get to the eating point. Can’t decide what to eat. Too anxious. Dumplings, I’ll eat dumplings. Something about using chopsticks I really enjoy....

I’m sure I’m not the only person who struggles with their medication. I will stare at my bottle for hours trying to remember if I took it. Since I use a long release medication my day is shot if I don’t take it before 10am....

In reference to the awful /r/ADHD subreddit which is the most anti-ADHD place online I have ever seen I would like to know if this place will follow their horrible example or actually allow neurodivergent people with ADHD to consider it a home?...

What should I say or not say to the therapist for the first time? Should I come out and say I think I have ADHD or should I avoid my own self-diagnosis and ask them to evaluate my habits on their own? Anything I should say or not say in a first chat? Anything that may be a red flag or green flag with a new therapist?

You don’t have ADHD

Then you try to charade what they look like, then your coworker starts going down a list of other coworkers names and you’re like “Honey, I don’t know anyone’s name, not even yours. Except of Charley from accounting, he as the same name as my nephew, he also kinda looks like him, but as a grown ass man. Then you wonder...
