How do you handle if both j1 and j2 offer health insurance or 401k? Do you decline if they’re the through the same provider?

At 8 weeks I’m so exhausted that I can barely function or think straight. Taking midday naps, shutting down early, but I have no energy to work beyond the bare minimum, and especially not for house chores. I feel so guilty but I just want to sleep even though there’s so much to do. Help.

Anyone feel like they regret being in consulting? I’m a serious introvert who wishes instead of going to school for business, I did something more technical and ended up as a developer. It could be isolation making things worse, but I’ve come to realize I really hate talking/facilitating due to social anxiety lol. But I feel it’s too late to do anything about it (I’m 27).

Looking for some actual information and respectful discoursed, not anecdotal stories or whataboutism, please.

With the high transmission rate of the Omicron variant, what is the likelihood of achieving some semblance of herd immunity? The very real & dark prospect of another 250,000 deaths by April 1st (15MM infections w/ 1.62% mortality) would mean a 30% increase in cases, which is realistic with a R0 value exceeding measles. So with the additional cases + 60% vaccinated, will it just die off?

Tips for just getting started, with the day especially, or even just a bad task later on after a few productive hours? I can have a stack of billables to do, but if it isn’t truly urgent, it’s just like a giant mental wall preventing me from getting things done. Medicine doesn’t help. It’s like I need the fear of god in me to get anything done and the moment I’m not scared of getting fired, I just... can’t. Things are OK at 2 am for some reason though.

Has anyone switched from 5 mg of Adderall XR to 10 mg? Can you describe the difference? I just started and feel the subtle improvement from before, but not sure if it should be more apparent/helpful.

That anxious feeling when you’ve been putting off a non-urgent project, but now it’s become an embarrassingly long time (2+ months) because nobody has followed up in the interim to put some pressure on you… I need to finish it and face the music, but really not looking forward to it. Can anyone relate/any tips to minimize backlash?

Those of you on Adderall—do you find that you have a harder time holding onto your thoughts when on medication? I feel much better on the medication, but I think it’s doing something to my memory.

Lit associates-what all do you delegate to your assistant? What do you ask them to do that helps you manage your symptoms?

I’m going to be taking the bar for the first time. Does anyone have experience with requesting accommodations for the bar exam? I was diagnosed late in life so I’m worried that not having accommodations during law school will make this process difficult. Additionally, any study tips/schedules/prep courses you recommend for lawyers with ADHD?!

Share your best work tips and tricks! For example, I recently spent about an hour setting up rules in Outlook to auto-filter junk emails and non-urgent emails (client alerts, data room notifications, bar association emails, etc.) into a separate folder that I can check a couple times a day. Don’t know how I didn’t think to do this years ago, but that’s about 50 fewer distractions each day since I’m one of those people who checks every email notification.

Has anyone had any experience with online platforms prescribing ADHD medications? I’ve seen ads for Done and wanted others input. I was diagnosed 21 years ago and have been treated by doctors every month since, so I don’t need an initial diagnosis. But my health insurance changed and my doctor is no longer covered. I can’t get in to a new doctor without a long wait, nor do I have time to take off work for the appointment, which is why I was leaning towards a virtual appointment. Thanks!

Been a rough week here and quitting has crossed my mind more than once. What keeps you guys motivated and inspired on the job?

My partner is a lawyer with ADHD, diagnosed as an adult, and about eight years into our 11 year relationship. We're working on him articulating how his brain works, and I want understand his experience as best I can.

What's the one thing you wished your (non-ADHD) spouse/partner understood about living with ADHD?

I’ve been trying to figure out dosage and medication over the past month and wanted some insight from people who may have more experience with diff doses. I started with 5mg Adderall for 2 weeks but it stopped being effective around the 4-5th day. I switched to 10 mg for a week and it was good but a bit up and down, so switched to Vyvanse 30 mg for a week, which was too strong. I’m now on 15 mg Adderall, but it feels like I can’t concentrate and I’m scattered. Question in comments:

Anyone suffer from PMS/PMDD and notice your hormones basically overpower your meds? In spite of taking my meds, I feel unfocused, fatigued, increased appetite, etc.?

So I was fired yesterday. I’m choosing to see this as an opportunity to make some changes, instead of just jumping into another law firm job I’m not cut out for. Does anyone have recommendations for career coaches, ADHD coaches, or ideally someone who does both?

My doc sent me the wrong prescription this month (20 mg IR, which was my old prescription, instead of 30 mg XR). I forgot how bad the IR headaches and crash were…

Should I just quit the legal field?

I have been a paralegal or legal assistant since 2010. I have worked for small and large firms and a TPA. I've worked in L&E, PI, and ID. Billing hours gave me nightmares. Right now I'm in a hybrid paralegal/LA position where I'm responsible for all of the docketing and supporting the managing partner and 1 associate and their 90+ ID caseload. I make a lot of mistakes everywhere I work. I feel so incompetent. Should I just abandon this career path?

How do you stealthily ask for help? I see a lot of you mentioning that you ask your partners to give you deadline, have your assistant check in, etc. That sounds great, but I'm so nervous about looking like the odd one out or revealing my ADHD in the process. So I haven't brought myself to do it yet.

Billable hour question: is anyone else just completely incapable of keeping up with your time? I’ve been an attorney for 3 years now and tried everything I can think of to figure this out but I just can’t do it. It’s the same thing at the end of every month - staying up late entering in an entire month of time. Luckily most clients I work for are flat fee/percentage based but I still feel like a failure for not being able to do this thing that seemingly every other lawyer can do. Any tips?

I’m so over the cross-examination at CVS every time I have to fill a prescription. Are you really trying to play doctor right now????
