Is concerta still on the menu? I tried ten years ago and I loved how focused and creative it made me. I’m thinking of asking for concerta instead at my next appointment. Anyone taking concerta? Or stopped it for a particular reason?

I haven't heard of anyone taking Concerta for ages. Even adderall has gotten increasingly hard to acquire for a lot of people these days. I think they're really cracking down on giving out the ADHD meds, I feel bad for anyone trying to get a prescription for the first time right now. My niece was diagnosed with ADHD and they still wouldn't give her anything good to deal with it because she was in college and they assumed she was just trying to get stimulants to do her classwork

One of my frustrations with myself (writing it out here so I can work on it) is that I will print out something that I need, such as a traffic collision report. I will read it without actually reading it. This results in spending time without actually retaining info. Does this happen to anyone else? I’ve found that I can actually focus when I truly force myself, but often this happens after I’ve discovered an error or an important piece of information that I should have noticed earlier.

My firm is right to expect that I manage my time better as a mid-level associate. WFH has made my time management worse.
