TLDR: Have you any tips or resources about how to be motivated to do things which you enjoy having ADHD in mind?...

My childhood best friend is ADHD, all but 1 of my other childhood friends is ADHD and about half of my current friends that I hang out with are either ADHD, on the autism spectrum or likely to be but as yet undiagnosed.

I’m studying for a test and the only resources I have are the presentations and somebody’s notes in text form. It’s a knowledge-retrieval test (no counting/reasoning), and unfortunately I don’t know what the questions look like so it seems I really will have to go through everything covered....

Often I end up closing the list and immediately turning to self-soothing. And because there’s no way to know in advance if a task on the list will give me anxiety, this often results in my list being not just unusable but unreadable, preventing me from doing or even remembering the non-anxiety tasks on the same list.

I’ve been diagnosed by my former therapist but I feel things are getting worse these days....

It took ~5 minutes and there was ZERO pain....

I need some help when it comes to clearing out, organising and sorting my stuff....

I dont mean depression or anxiety (this feels different), I mean feeling like you never really recharge, like youve never gotten time off ever. Which I think is partly due to a tendency to put literally 100% into something until you feel fried, move on to the next thing rinse repeat. Even “down time” doesnt really feel like...

Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can’t keep at it....

I am not sure if I have a Treatment Resistant Depression, but I sure have been on multiple SSRIS for the last 10 years....

I’ve been taking 70 mg Vyvanse for years. It generally works well. Although there are occasional days where I feel like maybe it’s not quite as effective as it should be. That probably has more to do with outside stressors and diet than anything. By this point I’ve built up some tolerance to it. I know a lot of other...

I’ll be honest, I feel like Dexedrine is the best and its also cool to have such an obscure med aha. Why did you settle wherever you did and share your thoughts on the comparative basis

After years of suspecting ADHD (and two decades of struggling), I decided that maybe I have ADHD. While I wait for an answer from the psychologists, I decided to take an online ADHD self-diagnosis questionnaire out of curiosity....

I’ve experienced burnout throughout work and education since I was sixteen. Usually around once every 12-18 months. I’ve accrued a lot of associated trauma....

A little into about me. I’m in my mid-forties, I live in Ohio, USA, and am on Medicaid. I suspect I have either ADD or ADHD but I can’t get diagnostic testing covered by Medicaid. What can I do to get testing or treatment? There are lots of “in-network” providers, but every time I get the focus to try and make an...

I was introduced to the potential for ADHD as an adult, and now at 33 I have my official diagnosis! Severe ADHD / Innatentive Presentation I’ve never been relived to get a diagnosis of severe anything before, but I feel like I can finally feel sure about why I’ve struggled with these symptoms for so much of my life. Now I...

Hi there. Things have spiraled out of control lately, I don’t have a stable job at the moment and when I do, I mostly work from home....

I’ve always been ADHD (autistic too), and have tried many ways to overcome it. However, solutions like body-doubling aren’t always accessible. I tried atomoxetine recently, and it help immensely for the first 4 days, then somewhat for 2 weeks, but eventually had no noticeable helpful impact. I finally got prescribed...

K, so I see posts wayyyy to often where the OP is crying and miserable about the way their pharmacy treats them like shit and never is on top of making sure they have your meds available and/or ready for you come refill day....

I realised this feeling is why I have such an issue avoiding caffeine, even more after starting on ritalin....
