OP can you add “unmedicated ADHD” to the title to be a bit more (but still not totally) accurate

Fuckin super.

Bundle that with my history of head trauma and I’m basically guaranteed to get it at this point.

Good news then. A history of head trauma means you’re more likely to die early of a stroke from a random blood clot than to live long enough and experience dementia.

woo…

Well might as well live a healthy active lifestyle from this point on hoping for the beat outcome

Gotta stack that deck in my favor Though basically everything before 25 could probably be best described as a path of self destruction, the future still isn’t written. I’ve been on the up and up for 6 years now.

It can be done and I believe you can do it.

Good luck!

3+ decades of dozens of prescriptions, none gave me a moment’s peace.

On the other hand, my little vape has saved the day more times than I can count.

It’s pretty closely connected to EDS/Hypermobility. For many this will be mild though and go unnoticed.

POTS, MCAS (gi issues, allergies) in the ‘chronic triad’

yeah I looked up after and saw that there is an increased correlation between ADHD and hypermobility, I do have Hypermobility.

Not that I know of… however, I’m a disabled veteran. Jumping out of planes definitely affects joints.

One of my grandpas just died this year due to dementia related complications and it is a hell of a way to go. Really hope I dont end up with it getting as bad as I have seen it get before its too late to jump off a bridge.

That’s the beauty of dementia, one of the symptoms is that you usually don’t realize you’re experiencing it.

Not surprised. My memory is already non existent. Lol. Maybe it’s the weed. Maybe it’s the adhd. Who knows.
