I felt an effect! I felt more focused and didn’t spiral in my thoughts too much! What the shit!


I wish you luck. And if I may, my recommendation to you is to look around in community groups for health care in your area or region. Take benefit of the collective effort in your region to find the persons or maybe even establishments who know and work with ADHD specifically


Lmao

Honestly, I gave up a year ago but my fiance told me it was worth fighting one last time. I am very lucky to have her.






I fucking did it! I got diagnosed. I’ve been “fighting” the healthcare system of my country for 6 years.
It took finding six different psychologists over the span of six years, and countless sessions where I tried to explain how sudden my decision can be, how I always get distracted, how eccentric that makes me and how flappy my whole life is and has been, and all the underlying issues, until I finally met one who understood me and had expertise in the field. Tomorrow, I will starting with a dose 18 mg of Concerta. It really sucks it has to be this way. [This really is true. ](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/39645052) I now feel like I can put down my heavy armor, my sword and my shield.

I’m feeling frustrated because I know my next hyperfocus topic or project might be abandoned suddenly. Need your sympathy and support.
So I got into organic farming. I bought an expensive earth cutter and actually got to rent a farming plot - about 100 m2. All that was last year. I still have that farming plot but to keep it, I have to keep paying for it as well as actually be there and care for crops. I still want to do it but I just can't bring myself to do it? And WTF do I do with the earth cutter? I live in a flat in the city ROFL I also recently got into game development. I actually dove right into the basics and actually began writing code and functions that work for game prototypes. As in not only did I first follow tutorials, but I made my own shit by just looking up documentation. I still want to do it, but... IDK, I just need a hook to go back but I just won't? And it saddens me, I really want to continue on some ideas I have but its too much. GAAAH. And I have a carpenter's work bench coming soon and all these projects I want to do. But WTF will I do.

I disagree with providing clues about certain conditions. Doing so can lead to misinterpretation, as people’s perceptions vary widely. While it’s inevitable, it’s possible to live in a way that minimizes the impact of these perceptions, and I would advise everyone to do so.

ADHD, although it shares similarities among individuals with this neurodivergence, manifests uniquely in each person.

ADHD is distinct from autism, particularly in how individuals with ADHD manage conversations.

ADHD is also different from intellectual disabilities.

Despite these differences, all these conditions fall under the umbrella term “neurodivergent.” However, I prefer not to use this term, as it can lead to overthinking and reliance on preconceived notions. I just tell people I have ADD on paper and if they want to understand it/me better, they will ask. Or I will provide them the info I seen they are missing. Lol!
