Mine has gotten worse but I attributed it to being older 🤷‍♀️

Haven’t noticed any changes with spelling but what do you mean by sloppy reading? I’ve only noticed improvements in mine. I can hold my attention longer and don’t have to re-read things a million times because I lost focus. I also read better out loud because I don’t read so fast and skip whole words 😂

Diagnosed a few months back and have been trialling medication. Started on 10mg Methylphenidate where I felt like I had the energy to do things but kept forgetting the pills, now have been on Concerta XL 36mg for a few weeks and not really feeling any effects. Still find it hard to focus and get motivated on tasks and generally distractible. Should I ask my Psyc about a different med? Just feel a bit overwhelmed with the whole process so far.. sorry for the rant!

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms. I do struggle to keep focus and generally take a bit longer to finish them, specifically the structuring of the case. Does anybody else feel the same way and any recommendations to overcome this?

I keep failing interviews because I’m not structured /crisp / polished enough (despite the creativity, insights and “intrinsics” being there) - has anyone else struggled with this? How did you overcome it? Has anyone used any communication coaches?
