I'm struggling at work and in the process of adjusting my meds, while simultaneously trying to fix some bad habits that I think came from burnout. I thought having a manager who has ADHD would be helpful. On the contrary, they don't seem to have a lot of empathy or patience for me. I think, in part, because they have theirs under control and are a high performer. Maybe they forgot what poorly controlled symptoms/adjustments feel like? Anyone else have similar experiences?

Anyone here make any money last week on GameStop? If so how much?

Anyone have a realtor they can recommend that would kick back a portion of their commission on a > $1.5M purchase. Please DM. Thanks!

Trying to decide on an exit opp as an M at Accenture. Company and role are definitely not my dream exit, but company has great WLB, benefits etc with a wonderful ~35% increase in TC. Just trying to decide if it’s worth it to leave consulting for a not suuuuper inspiring role/company and potentially get trapped in that industry or role.
All advice appreciated!

What’s the difference between a “litigator” and a “trial attorney”?

I do not know if Socrates actually said this, but in my opinion it is a great rule of thumb: Socrates, the great Greek philosopher, was once stopped by an acquaintance as he passed through the markets.

“I’ve something important to tell you,” he said. “It’s about your friend.”

“That’s very kind of you,” Socrates said. “But, don’t tell me just yet. I run all information through the Three Filters Test to ascertain if I want to know it.”

Hello guys, hope everybody’s doing well!

I am looking for opportunities as an entry-level Data/Business Analyst in Canada. I’m currently in Montreal, Quebec and I’m willing to relocate if necessary. I’m very nervous and confused with a lot of self-doubts at the moment. I would appreciate it if someone could refer me to any open positions or at least guide me. Looking forward to connecting with folks and discussing my profile and fit for any open positions. Thank you 🙂

Anyone here tried Strattera?

I'd love to create a sticky post here where we can share what technology tools we use to do our job better as Adhd consultants.
I've posted a tool - please consider using a similar format so it's consistent and easy to follow.

ADHD advice and suggestions for consistent high-performance on an important 60-80 hour work week project?… Medikinet (concerta) helps with focus but makes you feel bit more tired/lazy, so would you add a bit of modafinil? Anyone mixed these two?

Anyone had sexual performance issues on generic adderal (dextroamphetamine) that made a switch to something else and didn’t have those issues? I only take my meds 2-3 times a week to avoid the lethargy, but by that second or third time in a week I have issues.

Any recommendations for support groups that have an active online community?

Did I act irrationally here? I had an initial consultation with a therapist the other day to get a referral to a psychiatrist for BD + ADHD. I've called them to get the appointment set up but no response. So today, I found a new provider and was able to get an appointment booked directly with a psychiatrist next Wednesday.... Do I just tell the other provider I'm no longer interested?

Actions are probably bc of ADHD....🙃

Was on adderall throughout college, but didn’t like how my body responded to it. After joining the workforce full-time, I think I need to start medication again. Any softer meds that work for you?

How did you get your SO to better understand ADHD? We’re getting married and he’s very patient and understands with me. Just wondering if there is a resource to help him understand that this is an executive function disorder and my brain is wired differently.

do you guys just...not know what you want?
so far my career has gone pretty well just spontaneously applying for things that have sounded interesting.

Now, my current company is very supportive and wants to help my career plan - problem is I have no plan because I don't know what I want to do, and I can't choose what I want to do because I don't know what I like. my stupid brain cannot form an opinion based on anything other than what I did that exact day.

I’ve fallen into more of an ADHD coaching rhythm with my therapist, but want to be able to address comorbidities/ADHD symptoms that are unrelated to my organization/planning skills (e.g. depressive episodes, social anxiety, impulsivity, etc.). Any tips on how to broach these conversation topics/steer the direction of the sessions?
