When I was a competing wrestler I was much better medicated

I feel like when I was on meds I could go much harder at my workouts.

I don’t feel it 😅 but in generally my cardiovascular health is crap, so I’m huffing and have a high heart rate in general.

I try to start away from them. Working out already increases my heart rate enough. If you're going to try I would start off with a small amount to see how you react

Are people are generally careful? I dont think so... am i overthinking this?

I joined a new team and have noticed something off with my Director over the last months (slurring speech, no show to calls or even full days of work). I finally asked a colleague about it today because I’m concerned about my Director. She confirmed that she’s noticed the same over the last few years, but no one ever says anything. In confidence she told me she can often smell alcohol. How can I help? I feel helpless. I’ve already lost someone to addiction and I can’t ignore this. Any advice?

Any online services that diagnose adhd ? Based in the uk and the wait it weeks if not months.

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)
