If you haven't seen it already, #ADHD2022 is trending on twitter, professionals from all over the world are discussing ADHD put on by CHADD (Children and Adults with ADHD/ADD). If you went or are virtually attending the conference, please share your experience! Cool thing to check out.

This fight has gotten real! I’ve been offered a job, advertised as remote, but they want to have a blended program with teachers on campus. Small school, 10-15 to a class... maybe, masks ( I’ll have to ask if they’re mandatory), distancing and a continuous cleaning staff. Sounds great but I’m 62 with 5 underlying conditions! Have to negotiate a contract Monday... I’m hoping I’ll be able to work on-line as NV is one of the growing hotspots in this Pandemic!

Somebody got Covid-19 at our company and they only shut down b/c someone contracted it and not to be preventative.

How soon is too soon to start looking for a new job after starting a new job? I thought going full time in person in the SCIF would be better for my mental health to get out of the house but I don’t think it’s what I needed and now I’m stuck in the office 40 hours a week. Any tips?

Day 5 of Wellbutrin for ADHD. Already seem to wake up easier and been able to focus a bit more. Really hope to keep seeing improvement and this isn’t a placebo affect so far!

Colleague died over the weekend. Wondering why we don’t have more dialogue about mental health in this field.

What would you do if you found out today that you only had a few months to live? I recently had a health scare and was (thankfully) misdiagnosed, so it was a false alarm, but it really put life in perspective for me.

Anyone knows what the COVID test requirements are for fully vaccinated US residents traveling back to US?

How do you add positive structure to your life outside of work? I am way too worn out when I get home and my ADHD just takes over...

Just an observation, I’m at Stansted and the airport is packed, people without masks everywhere. Almost like pre pandemic.

Curious as to what the views on canibas (medical & recreational use) are in the finance industry. From what I've seen, it's a stigma compared to alcohol, but maybe it just appears that way?

Is anyone else completely grossed out by people you know treating the pandemic so lightly? I saw a group of people I know having an indoor party and don’t think I can stomach being friends.

7 days since my last drink today. I know it's not much ... But 1 day at a time right? Hope you're all staying strong!

More people died of covid under Biden than under Trump.

Anyone have Bieber fever and want to go to the Justin Bieber concert in Jeddah first weekend in December????

I’ve hesitated posting because I don’t now what I’m asking of you all. But here goes. I froze my eggs a few years back and got 5. I’m now married and yesterday I froze another 2. Low numbers I know. I’m in my 40s. This week we make embryos- with 7. And I guess I’m just anxious. What if nothing. What if abnormal. What if something but they don’t transfer. Do I risk n carry myself (terrified of pregnancy btw). My mind is racing. Anyone been through this with such low numbers- anyone in your 40s?🙏🏽

Hi fishes,

I got an offer of 20 lpa from Nagarro.

Later i received one more from another company with 24 lpa as fixed and 50k joining bonus.

Do you think all adhd-ers work better from home? Since transitioning out of the office completely it's been so much easier for me to schedule things around my energy levels rather than try to turn it on for work and off when I get home.

What kind of accommodations can I ask for especially since I work from home? I am having an extremely hard time with the pressure and time constraints on getting the work done.

Just discovering RSD after being diagnosed as an adult. I feel like SO MUCH of my life has been impacted by this and I just never had a name for it. At work if someone gives me negative or constructive feedback it can feel like a punch in the chest even if I know it's not personal. Makes romantic relationships so hard too. What do you do to handle it especially at work?

Executive dysfunction is so annoying. Not only am I avoiding things I don't want to do, I'm also avoiding things I DO want to do, things that make me feel good or that I need.

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.

So are we considered part of the neurodivergent community?

ADHD medication with high Blood Pressure?

I found ADHD meds helpful when I worked in consulting in my 20s. I stopped the meds when I went back to school. Also have had High BP since late 20s. 15 years away, I am back in consulting and loving it, however my difficulties juggling so many projects/tasks is holding me back. I know I would benifit from some ADHD medication but my Dr won’t prescribe any with my history of BP (controlled with BP meds). Anyone else gone through this? Any tips?

Ashwagandha. Look into it. With the Adderall shortage this has been an absolute life saver in my daily supplement pile.

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind.

Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?
