Have been taking Modafinil for last two weeks after being on Adderall XR 30 mg for past few years.

It is a game changer in my opinion, my sleep has improved, my focus is more steady throughout the day and i dont feel “cracked out” like you typically would coming down. Highly recommend to any of my ADHD friends here

For some people looking to get into ketosis for performance, but struggle with staying in it:
i recently worked with a research team investigating the effects of ketone esters (a drink). They are better than their alternative form (ketone salts usually cheaper and has contaminants). You take it about an hour before you workout or do your activity. Its good for endurance, cognitive function, and there is hints that it helps muscular endurance activity. (**I dont work for a supplement company).

How do you relieve tension in your traps when you start to get stressed? I feel like I will start to tense up out of nowhere and I don’t know how to stop it

What is your fix to manage posture while working on a laptop? Would love recommendations for portable laptop stands/other hacks.

I’m at 11 weeks but stopped having nausea, fatigue, and sore breasts. I don’t feel pregnant at all and that wasn’t the case a few days ago. I know it could be normal but I can’t help but assume the worst. Did anyone feel the same way? Is it normal to feel “normal” this early?

Recently considering an ADA for my ADHD. Has anyone done this and understand how this would be written up? What should I suggest from my therapist? I do all the things I can to stay organized and on task but I still forget little things and make seemingly careless mistakes which are not careless at all.

New to recovery and had an intake call with an IOP program. They said all sessions will be on Zoom and I’m really nervous that I won’t connect to the program virtually. Anyone start rehab virtually?

Thoughts on the Bill Michael resignation email we got? I’ve heard the same commentary and worse from my bosses about covid being ‘fake’ or ‘ over exaggerated’ and have been told by my bosses to expect working longer hours without hanging time to eat — but it seems it doesn’t matter unless unless there’s an article written about it that the media puts out.... one thing to enforce our values on only those getting caught in the spotlight for it.

I’m mentally exhausted.

Dubai/UAE ADHDers. Can you take stimulants into the country for like a one month project there?

How much do you spend with your spouse? My current life has me basically working and then spending time with them. Losing myself. Also feel too much time together is driving us apart lol. What’s your healthy balance?

Context: Diagnosed with ADHD during college recently joined MBB. I've previously managed my ADHD (both before and after diagnosis) with lots and lots of exercise, but this is no longer possible with my new job. Would like to avoid the hard meds if possible.

Its 6:50 am and someone ordered a mimosa in first class. Not gonna lie kind of jealous I’m going to work and they are going on vacation. 😭

Hi. I have very low AMH, 36 years old & never have been pregnant. I have done 2 IVF cycles this year approx 5 months apart. Each time had only 2 eggs retrieved, 1 fertilization each which lead to the embryo reaching blastocyst stages both times & both came back normal after genetic testing 🤍 talk about beating the statistics odds! 🤞🏻 I now have 2 cutie embryos saved. My husband & I would love to have twins and will be speaking to my doctor about the best options. Twins thoughts?

Any retirees having trouble booking VA appointments? And how does the codes work for medical?

I’m possibly joining a start up fin tech. I’m obviously aware of the possibility of the firm failing. I’ve run legal / compliance programs at larger fin tech firms and I know it’s not cheep. What questions would you ask/ what would you be aware of?

Sober Sunday check in ... how is everyone doing?

Q for guys. Any recommendations on face lotion?

At my wit's end here, I have a cafe to run even when it's impossible to get a halfway decent price on groceries (even at wholesale). And customers aren't about to pay $20 for a sandwich. What can I do

Can anyone refer me to any product based companies?
Tech stack - Java spring Microservices

To all the recruiters who ghosted me after the first call few months ago even though they showed so much excitement the first time they reached out: Thank you!!!
Without you, I would not have received a 6-figures salary offer! Happy Friday!!

One of my recommender asked me to draft a letter for them. Is this a common practice? Not sure how to write a letter about myself from their perspective. I’m worried it will stand out in a bad way / weaken my overall application.

In Wipro Do we get resignation acceptance email on personal email id, or we have to get in done manually?

I love my job and the people I work with, but lately I've been feeling like everyone else has more flexibility in their schedules than I do. How do you find time for yourself when there's so many meetings?

Slides and stimulants: Do you not end up making lots of sloppy mistakes on slides when on stimulants? If so, how do you resolve this.

Has anyone used Thesis to help manage their ADHD? I’ve been worried about using stimulants and it seems like a great alternative, but doubt it would be covered by insurance…

Cant take adderal because the side effects are just too hard on me. Are there any other meds I should talk to my doctor about? I am tired of being Dory.

Movers are coming tomorrow and I have procrastinated packing the miscellaneous drawers and whatnot. My lack of organization becomes very apparent when I pull out 10 different categories of things from one drawer. Chuck 25% and the rest gets put in a box to the new place. Anyone else feel that packing for a move is harder than it should be?

So was prescribed adderall last week, and went out last night for a friends birthday. Got absolutely hammered (not in particularly good way)

For people on ADHD medication, what has been your experience with drinking while taking them?

Crashing in the afternoon after taking morning dose.

What would be more healthy/impact sleep less, drinking some coffee or taking an “afternoon booster” version of my morning dose?

Have you ever gotten in trouble at work for your ADHD tendencies? If so, what were the repercussions & how did you handle?

Anyone here have comorbid anxiety and/or depression? How did you know, and how do you manage it now? I think I might be struggling with one or both and I’m trying to figure out how to proceed. Not currently seeing a therapist or medicated, managing based on strategies I learned from an ADHD coach back in college, so at minimum I would need to find a provider, which has been a barrier (cost-wise, finding someone with experience with ADHD, etc.)

I suspect I have ADHD. I show multiple symptoms but am wondering about one specifically.until my promotion to manager I was considered high performer. now am stuck and can’t figure out how to progress. I am very good in executing and repeating what I know but have major issues in shaping an approach or identifying new opportunities. And if I don’t know how to continue I am just staring at my screen or finding distractions. Can this be related to ADHD or is it maybe just time for a career change?

How do you know when to up the dose on your meds? Currently on 40 mg Vyvanse. I usually get the peak euphoria feeling (super alert) about 1 hour after i take my meds and it lasts for a couple of hours. I work late but have noticed that i spend too much time staring at the screen and keep jumping between tasks. Would upping the dose help me concentrate on one task at a time? If not how do you manage this? What tips would you have to prevent the constant back and forth between tasks? TIA

Thinking about asking to switch from XR to IR due to having a difficult time falling asleep at night.

Has anyone else done this? What are the major differences between XR and IR?

All I want is to aggressively pay off debt, earn a bit higher paycheck, be more balanced and consistent and reliable, improve my health and take better care of myself, and not almost exclusively dread my job. And some time to socialize. These all seems fairly simple… but i am still struggling to accomplish this. It’s downright nerve wracking and frustrating.

New to the bowl - does anyone have any practical advice on minimising impact of ADHD on work (beyond meds). E.g., transcription software to cover your lack of focus in meetings, task management styles, etc?

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?

READING Text-heavy documents: does anyone else find it difficult to read accurately and deeply on stimulants?

How do you get better at execution on projects and avoiding getting into the weeds or hyperfocusing on the things you like?

It's making my research and projects get a lot of scope creep. :(

I am always embarrassingly late to the office/client site in the mornings.

It seems to be a combo of only going in 1-2 times a week so I can’t get a routine and general time blindness. I do take my meds first thing so I’m able to at least complete getting ready tasks one by one…

Any and all advice welcome!

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.

Any alternatives to addreell

Does mind lab pro work? (Heard about it)
