Had food poisoning on a remote island in Vietnam in a 15-bed dorm-style bungalow with 16 hours of travel the next day. It may have been the worst 24 hours of my life and I couldn't eat normally for a couple weeks

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

Do you think our anxiety or tension is because we have not been able to conceive?
