alt Hacker NewsI have what you would call metric shittons of ADHD. Medically diagnosed. Was kicked outta university for failing grades and all. Pills saved me. If you think you have it, the best thing you can do for yourself is at least get a diagnosis done. In b4 people come in and chime it can be faked. Yes the symptoms can be faked. But why would you if you really want to know what is wrong with you if any? (Hoping you aren't a TikTok content creator lurking here)
I really hope this doesn't get lost in the sea of comments and don't feel pressured to answer any of them but:
what would you recommend if one is against the idea of medication in general for neurological issues that aren't deterental to ones life?
do you feel the difference between being medicated and (strong?) coffee?
have you felt the effects weaken over time?
if you did drink coffee, have you noticed a difference between the medication effects weakening on the same scale as caffeine?
is making life easier with medication worth the cost over just dealing with it by naturally by adapting to it over time (if even possible in your case)?
this is a personal pet-project of observing how different people deal with ADHD.
