Yes I was put on a PIP a couple years ago. I worked my butt off to show that I had improved and get taken off the PIP. Its possible to work hard and overcome it but I am not going to say that it was easy because it was not.

It would depend on the company and its policies. In most cases, it is just a process to avoid any legal issues in the future, and you will end up being fired. I have seen cases that managers didn't have any grounds and had to apologize for putting an employee on a PIP.

Hmm, not yet although I was scared it was coming. What have they flagged as your major issue?

Did they give you any warnings before putting you on PIP? Also has our neurodivergence been disclosed? Don't get discouraged use it as motivation to show them what you can do?

Just here to say I’m so thankful we have this safe space. People who aren’t diagnosed generally have misconceptions about ADHD and its symptoms, and I’m so grateful we have this bowl to seek help, learn from one another, and sometimes just vent!

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess. Knowing that is figurative, what should I actually be expecting? I feel mostly the same, I think, though I came in and actually did started my work today. But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.

Can anyone relate? If I’m stressed out, I can’t focus on my tasks because my productivity is driven by creative and explorative thought.

And then there’s the whole dopamine addiction issue with doing a small amount of work then hopping on social media because you feel like you need the reward. Just me?
