Mods: feel free to delete, but I couldn't find a post within the past month that had good information about the current Adderall shortage (the one linked in the Automod comment is from 3 years ago). Well fam, I guess we're doing this again.…

I'll be working on something I genuinely care about. Not something my boss assigned. Not homework. Not taxes. Something I chose. Something I was excited about. Something I literally wanted to do. And somehow I still leave. Not because I changed my mind.…

for some reason, after I take my medication, I get so fixated on wanting to learn dance routines (kpop routines specifically). mind you, I took one single dance class as a kid and never did it again like it’s not like I have a history or a deep love for…

Is it true that playing video games (2-3 hours per day) will worsen my symptoms? I recently got diagnosed with a more minor end of ADHD and am being put on medication, but I am being told that I need to cut out the games if I want to get better at…

could be a product, or a piece of content or anything you'd wished existed that would make your life with adhd better. a product you would use regularly or some kind of coach or book. something that if you'd have it would be a + to your life.…

I’ve had enough. I live in a shithole to be honest and it’s really getting me down. It just feels like every single thing is a mammoth task, but I know that I deserve to live in a clean environment.…

I’ve never had so many post it notes or tabs open in my life, and sometimes I really care, but often I don’t, and yet I know I am obligated to plan every last minute detail. And I hit a point where I just am at decision fatigue with every single thing?!?…

Literally just a rant cuz I lost my favorite jacket and a bunch of my clothes because before I moved out of my dorms I left my clothes in the dryer I think. And now they’re probably thrown away 😭😭.…

My old psychiatrist left and I was assigned a new one who can’t see me until June 24th. I am almost out of my adhd med prescription, and have reached out to the office several times.…

Hi everyone. I’m 27 years old and was diagnosed with ADHD and CPTSD over two years ago. Honestly, I went through a huge journey before turning to stimulants.…

I am currently single and in my mid-30s. I graduated with my master's degree a few years ago. Since then, I have been trying to excel in my career—or at a minimum, just be average at my job—but I have been struggling, even after several years.…

Does Vyvanse like ALWAYS cause people to be angry all the time??? I’m starting on 10mg of it tomorrow, which I know isn’t much, but I’m worried I’m gonna start getting insanely irritated at everyone including people I love and care about like my partner.…

I have been medically diagnosed with being on the extreme side of both Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity, it has certainly been a very interesting 20 years for me.…

I'm constantly hobby hopping. Constantly jumping from one thing to the next and getting super obsessed before burning out and flipping to another next thing after the last thing becomes completely and entirely uninteresting to me.…

I've tried CBT with some a psychologist off psychologytoday who claimed he also "specializes in ADHD", and I can't say he was completely useless but it was clear he didn't know wtf he was talking about at times.…

I started Vyvanse for the first time like 4-5 months ago and change my life. I finished at the top of my classes in each of my class when I’ve been failing school all throughout my life and everything just became so easy, I used to have to study 10 hours…

I talked to my teacher the other day about my ADHD struggles and she answered: “It will never get easier, and you will never learn if you just try to understand why things are the way they are instead of trying to understand how to learn”.…

I find it hard to see others my age—and even younger—thriving in life when I'm not. I'm currently in my mid-30s and single. Despite several college degrees, the job I have doesn't pay well.…
