Is it more difficult to hear (or process hearing) things when on stimulants? Several times people speak to me and then I feel I didn’t hear or understand them, never happens off stims: Any similar experiences?

Anyone else going in big on pton soon? Zoom and TDOC too. Lots of 2020 high flyers on sale now - been waiting for this. 200% gain just for Pton to recover.

I have to believe this is the fate for a lot of 2021 high flyers by this time next year, but we will see.

I'm upping my dosage this month for the first time since I started taking medication. I've had very few side effects so far (trouble sleeping) but I'm worried with this higher dosage I'll get more of the bad along with more of the good. What do you guys use for insomnia or sleep issues while on ADHD medication? Thanks.

Dear Fish,

I worked out twice today on an empty stomach, then went to the airport to travel for the holidays. I’ve had two drinks and I’m very drunk🥺. How to fix?

Sincerely,
Me

Did a teladoc consultation today and got confirmed for ADHD. Was asked to go on medication given nature of job. Was told side effects are negligible after 30 years of age. Thoughts?

Anyone know if you could reschedule an interview in the scenario you test positive for Covid?

Anyone know of any female fitness influencers (other than Blogilates, who I love) on IG/TT who do both pilates & heavy weight lifting? Looking for some motivation, preferably someone who's on the thicker side. I've found a few, but they're all very slim (nothing wrong w that, but am looking for some w my body type).

Would also appreciate any tips from anyone who's already doing this! I train 4x/week w upper/lower splits and am looking to add in 1 day of pilates. Goal is to increase flexibility.

I am suspected for endometriosis. I haven’t tried hormones yet but getting an IUD on Tuesday. Is it worth doing a laparoscopy? I am concerned about the risks. 33F, planning to have kids in the next 2-4 years. Not sure if I should wait and try it out before I get surgery.

I’m Thai and I asked my American wife to call me “Suriya”, which means sun in Sanskrit. I explained that this is because I’m her primary source of vitamin D. She then punched me in the solar plexus.

Moms and dads, worked well in balancing workload at home post-baby?
I’m in my 3rd tri and feeling like I’m carrying the weight (pun intended) more than my partner. He’s active and involved but not proactive or ‘on it’. As in - he’s usually the one to cook but doesn’t plan ahead for dinners; if I ask for help on a big cleaning day, he’ll help but constantly leaves dishes, trash, clothes everywhere (even right next to bins and hampers!). Usually it’s not an issue but… (cont).

I did not get a full time offer from my internship this past summer at a top consulting firm they told me on the second to last day. I have been trying to recruit at other consulting firms however haven’t received any offers yet. I struggle with severe depression and anxiety and often struggle with telling others when I struggle with it. I am having thoughts of ending it all because of the combined stress of school and now recruiting with little opportunities left.

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

Moving to the Bay Area fall this year from the east. I’ll be working out of Los Gatos and my wife out of San Bruno we have two kids (4 and 2). Looking at the move to the west as short term (~2 yrs) and looking to rent a place for now (2 or 3 bedroom max). Anyone have recommendations on places around the Bay Area to rent so it’s an easy commute for my wife and me (max 3 days a week in the office) as well as for a family. Thoughts ?

How many strategist are in your strategy/planning department?

I have no doubt it varies from place to place, but I am curious since the place I work at only has 6 strategists (across all levels).

recommended restaurants in Venice worth stopping by? I have a decently long list but trying to cross reference and narrow it down.

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Starting a few initiatives inside to make space for queer talent. Some ideas are basic (the group, the Slack channel, having film nights, political activism, etc.), but has anyone seen or done anything they’re super proud of they wouldn’t mind sharing?

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. Anybody else feel this way or do you love working in the office?

Does anyone know a good psychiatrist in NJ ?

Do you just have adhd, or adhd + another diagnosis? Wondering if most of us are neurodivergent in more ways than one

Hi folks,
Any good psychiatrist or physician in the DC area who specialize in ADHD diagnosis and treatment in adults?

Prefer if they accept Atena.

I don't know for sure that this is an ADHD thing but does anyone else get really irritated by small things or have trouble regulating their emotions? Especially when you take a day off from medication? I feel like the smallest thing can piss me off, especially in the AM. Am I just not a morning person or this a symptom?

My new insurance doesn’t cover Vyvanse. Today is my first day not taking it, and I’m really struggling. Any advice would be so appreciated.

For my fellow women with ADHD:
Do you notice that your crash points are during your menstrual cycle? I have depression too so the hormone changes really affect me and I am an emotional wreck/bi-polar (beyond what is normal PMS type behavior). I am a healthcare executive and it is affecting work relationship and meds aren’t helping (depression nor ADHD meds). I just feel very defeated and don’t know what to do. I hate my brain 🥴

Yesterday was my first day taking Adderall since college. I crashed really hard. Can anyone offer any advice on how to deal with the terrible crashes? I used to smoke a lot of weed in college, but not sure if that’s the best route to go now.

Has anyone else tried Strattera, had success, and a few months later felt like work was a struggle again? Am I imagining it? There are reasons why I should not take stimulants, but I miss that feeling of being a “regular” person at work and so am curious if others have had a similar journey and where you all ended up

Currently at Bain, and while I feeling so lucky to be here and enjoying it. I feel lost. I don’t know what’s next for me. No other company seems interesting to me and I feel kinda complaisant.

Also feeling a FOMO is taking over my head. That my other colleagues/classmates are doing much better :(

Sorry to sound silly 😢

How do I say to my boss "I constantly drift off in meetings and when you're talking so could you please be more engaging or send this in an email?" without losing my job? Sometimes I'm in a meeting and when I leave I genuinely couldn't tell you what was discussed. Is there a scientific explanation for the brain fog I get with ADHD? Because it sucks.

I feel like the parts of ADHD that don't suck aren't talked about that much (and I need a reminder, desperately). The one thing I like is my ability (when I can get my brain to work) to focus hard and get something done in a short amount of time. If I'm really locked in, I can get a serious amount of work done fast. feel free to add yours (please lmao💀).

Looking for a good playlist to keep me motivated this morning :( I usually listen to Ava Max or something #ADHD is real!!

Best Sleeping Remedies and Meds for long-term use when on stimulants? I keep getting poor sleep and it’s killing me!

This question was asked in my company bowl: Be brutally honest. Are you more or less productive WFH?

Everyone in the comments said more productive at home and I'm curious if this bowl would have a different consensus. I'm way more productive in the office, although I don't go that often, so maybe it's the change of scenery that helps.
