I have been on ADHD meds for about 7.5 years now. I started with Vyvanse and my dose was at 70mg in the first year. I was having bad crashes at night, so I switched to Adderall 40mg with 10mg Dexidrine and stayed on it for a few years. Recently, I switched to Concerta 90mg because my tolerance was getting too high and it...
I read a lot of people on reddit’s r/adhd were they suffer with ADHD (or something similar, as they aren’t diagnosed) but can’t afford it. I read one that said they spend over US$ 1000 and had to stop looking because of the price....
For me, it’s how much better I can do things I thought I was already fine at. Like engaging in conversations, handling complex logic, or just consciously relaxing.
I have ADHD and my partner does not. When we were planning our wedding it was really difficult because she would do most of the planning (because I wasn’t doing it and someone had to and she loves planning), but when we needed to plan anything together it was like pulling teeth for me. I wanted to help out but it was always so...
I already go frequently to therapy and take SSRIs (for over 10 years now). I guess they kinda help as antidepressants, but anxiety wise I haven’t had any luck if it’s not Benzos or Weed (but weed creates money anxiety on the comedown)...
Hi. I have been wondering how to get an assessment for neurodivergence as I seem to struggle with some day-to-day things. I seem to relate to a lot of memes from the adhd and autism communities. I also seem to have a good amount of traits that overlap with autism and adhd....
I’m so overwhelmed with all the stuff I have to do and also don’t have accountability at work and it’s making it worse. Anyone want to be accountability buddies? Spend a moment every week getting to know each other enough to hold each other accountable and maybe send the occasional uplifting message?
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?
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?
Long story short, Im 28, I work in a specific department in my factory called lighting, specifically I work in the truss department. Lately someone from a nearby but technically separate payroll has been “stealing me” to do drape (basically folding and putting away huge theater drapes) I’m getting annoyed because not only...
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....
God I am miserable. I am in charge of managing some several thousand video recordings as well as making sure my notes on them are accurate (date time and number of clips)....
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 was looking for software that would automatically remind me to take a break from the computer every so often. It needs to be automatic and pop up over video games. Idk if anyone had any suggestions?
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.
I just started generic Focalin 5 days ago, 5mg once a day. It makes me feel wired, like I’ve had too much caffeine. I can’t tell yet if it’s helping with my concentration, and it doesn’t hurt my mental state as far as I can tell, but I’m wondering if this physical jittery feeling will fade over time. I can’t imagine...
