Anyone else burnt out mentally even with meds? I’m sleeping, eating well, working out every day, on a low dose of meds but my motivation is in the trash. Take frequent breaks too. Brain feels tired

Has anyone here been through a divorce? My divorce finalized a few months ago and i had been separated for 1.5 years before that. I’m really not interested in dating these days. I’ve tried to go on dates but just keep getting annoyed. Is there something wrong with me? I’m more interested in making new friends and being social but not dating. I’m 29 btw. Interested in hearing your guys’ experiences.

I thought my nights and points would merge. How do I make that happen?

I’m looking to carve out my career in HR. I have 2 years in a dedicated HR Coordinator role (essentially with Generalist duties) and 5+ years in senior level hospitality management. I’m interested in getting my PHR or getting a certificate in data analytics with business/HR focus. Thoughts on next steps?

Newly diagnosed & medicated and new to consulting.
I’m great with clients but getting bad evaluations because I’m slow to produce work and don’t take time to communicate status.
I’m trying really hard but I keep getting stuck in perfection loops and scared to share things before they’re perfect.

Did you struggle with this & find a way to improve? I’m terrified I’m going to get counseled out, but I love this job so much.

I’m prescribed Ritalin XR 40mg and when I take it ~10AM I feel great (talkative + focused). Then around 4PM my head feels tight, eyes feel dry, I get monotone and sound depressed…

Anyone go through a similar reaction?

I’ve had enough. I may or may not have ADHD but I damn think so, as well as people I’ve talked to about it. I know I am smart and can accomplish certain things/tasks, but I literally just can’t get my mind to it sometimes. It was bad in college and only got worse since I started working. How do I go about at least getting tested or what’s the the process? Thank you so much in advance.

How do you mange your attention to detail as a consultant. This something I’m struggling with and have received feedback on. Do you disclose that you have add so proper accommodations can be put into place?

I have not been diagnosed with ADHD. I definitely fit some of the characteristics that go unnoticed in females. The good news is if i do have ADHD, it makes me quite good at my job as I’m very flexible and can provide positive energy to my patients. Anyway, my boss has told me I have ADHD multiple times. It seems rude when she says it, and she follows it up with “I say that because I love you” which i feel is so unprofessional all around. Anyone have guidance on how to handle this?

I started taking Adderal, 2.5 g which is not really a lot. It didn’t really help with my focus, instead I felt restless and somehow nervous and really thirsty. And it made me clench my teeth. I do grind my teeth during nighttime but never experienced this in the daytime. Does it take time to get used to it?

Anyone else get bored of their jobs and feels the need to switch jobs every 6/9 months ? How do you deal with it ?

Need to brag- for the first time in my life, my performance review says "very organized".

First year medicated, I knew it was making a difference for me but seeing the evidence on paper is still crazy.

I have long covid (the fog is following me) and I have been off my meds for a few months (since I got sick). The fatigue + fog + rampant adhd + vertigo + tinnitus = Omg somebody help me. I am trying to find specialist doctors I can(not) afford and read insurance while I am dizzy and wildly inattentive/forgetful and overall off balance. 😭🤣 this is a joke right?? I feel under water literally and figuratively. Someone please laugh w/ me. 😬😂🤷🏼‍♀️

For those who are medicated, how much water do you drink a day?

What is your melatonin dosage?

I’ve decided to try microdosing. I have ADHD and I don’t take my meds because I can’t sleep while on them. I recently read an article about microdosing might be a path forward for those who struggle with focus/energy/etc. still reading up on it but looking for insight from those who have done it already.
Will it mess up my sleep? How long will the effects last? I’ll be doing 🍄, if that helps clarify

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and depression. I have couple questions, it would be really helpful if you can help me here as I have no ecosystem/network who can help me.
1. Doc said ADHD medication would help with the later. Has anyone else been diagnosed with similar thing and did only the ADHD med help? I feel great somedays and somedYs feels like I want to die (For context: I am on concerta which is slow release)

What's your adderall dose?

How does coffee affect you when taking medication? Do you feel that you are more or less productive/attentive?

Does it help or hurt when you “crash”?

anyone else taking strattera having sexual side effects? (ED,etc) just started taking it and wondering if that goes away after a bit or if it’s ongoing because no… just no.

Has anyone read the book ADHD 2.0? Great read!

I was just diagnosed with adhd. How do others cope with it, especially given our high pressure careers.... thinking about medicine but need to talk to my psychiatrist.
