Need to bill 47 hours/week for the next 3 weeks. I have the work just nervous about staying focused. When I get stressed I check out/lose time. Anyone have any good tips?

Hi everyone! Due to an acquisition, I recently had to take a paycut to join the new company. Because we were being acquired, I wasn't allowed to talk to HR or at least my boss wouldn't let me, about salary and negotiate it. I'm wondering if I should tell my new boss about the financial hit I recently had to take. If so, how do I approach it?

Anyone working in Culture, Change Management and Comms at Korn Ferry? Interviews make it sound amazing -- great clients, fast growth, opps to shape the practice, inspiring leaders, w/l balance... What's your experience?

Senior AD salary range in ATL at Agencies and In-house?

I'm thinking about switching districts and grade levels after over a decade. I'm feeling stale and wonder if a move will be good. The new position would require summer trainings for the next few years to teach high school AP classes, but hopefully be more rewarding. I'm still anxious. New school, no professional status... What would you do?

Outlook notification never caught my attention this much 😂

Is it better to start from a PhD grad in life science boutique consulting or in a commercial/market access household brand name pharma role? Long term goal of being senior pharma exec

Guys ds courses for 3-4 lakhs are fucking too much to pay don't go for these types of courses. The folks who teach these courses didn't take any all that is available online or refer to some standard books or videos. Even if you want to take you can take small courses for 5-10k and learn. Develop a habit of reading documentation(embrace the fucking boredom)

I have trouble turning people down in the streets when they ask me for money. I was approached by some man I didn’t know at a gas station who asked for $20, and I sent it to him on cash app. Is this naive? I kinda felt unsafe in the moment, but also wanted to be a good person.

Anyone ever make a fresh pair of NikeIDs? Tired of waiting for releases, want to take matters into my own hands.

Does anyone work in an area with lots of exterior environmental noise (traffic, concerts, trains, etc.) and have tips for not becoming overwhelmed and/or distracted by it? I’m finding that environmental noise has increased near my office now that tourism has picked back up in my city, and I’m struggling to block it out. I’ve tried earplugs but the noises tend to vibrate my office building so the earplugs don’t work well as an entire block.

How long should I give new medication a chance to work and what should I feel? I was recently diagnosed. Initially, doc wanted to prescribe vyvanse, but we have to jump through hoops to get it, so we did concerta instead. I’ve been on it for five days, and I’ve felt extra anxious, sleepless, no focus, and irritable. How long do I keep at it before I could see a difference? And what should the meds make me feel? Thanks all.

I’ve been trying to figure out dosage and medication over the past month and wanted some insight from people who may have more experience with diff doses. I started with 5mg Adderall for 2 weeks but it stopped being effective around the 4-5th day. I switched to 10 mg for a week and it was good but a bit up and down, so switched to Vyvanse 30 mg for a week, which was too strong. I’m now on 15 mg Adderall, but it feels like I can’t concentrate and I’m scattered. Question in comments:

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and just started medication treatment, and I didn’t realize something was missing this entire time. My brain finally feels so calm!!

Studying for the bar, and my first 2 years of practice exacerbated my symptoms so badly. I couldn’t keep up with the long hours at work! I feel like I have a fighting chance now!

I don't think I'm cut out for this career. My adhd gets in the way.

I’m switching to Strattera (from Adderal XR) after some stories shared in this bowl, and some family members who have been really happy with it.

On my first full dose today and man the nausea is real. Understanding now why my doctor told me to split the dose into different parts of the day. Should have listened. 😅

Anyone have a positive experience with an online ADHD provider like Klarity, Done, ADHD Online, etc.? Mostly seeing negative reviews but they seem a lot more convenient.

My annual review came in and partners said I am likely their most organized associate lol. Thanks to my ADD for making me neurotic about organizing and documenting things.

Does anyone else struggle with taking detailed notes during meetings and have tips for improving? One of the partners I work for demands that the most junior associate take detailed notes and circulate them after every call, but I have a hard time comprehending the call if I am taking notes because I’m focused on typing quickly. And my notes can be spotty when I get behind typing or get distracted.

I saw a new PCP in a new city and finally talked about how I believe I may have ADHD (I’m 40), particularly based on things I’ve read here. He suggested I talk to a psychologist first, but I’m having the hardest time getting an appt with anyone in the area. Has anyone used Teladoc and have any recs? Alternatively, does anyone have recs of anyone I can to talk to so I can be tested?

How do you deal with the procrastination and lack of focus that comes along with adhd? I cant work 4 hours straight wihout a break.. take small breaks more often? How to avoid putting things off??

Has anybody experienced high blood pressure on stimulants (Adderall)? If so, how was it treated? Did you have to discontinue ADHD medication?

nice I needed another distraction

I've fallen into the bad habit of endlessly scrolling on Tiktok or Instagram whenever I have a few down minutes and then can't make myself get back to work when I need to. What do you all do in your downtime that doesn't derail your entire day?

Anyone know of any body doubling apps? On my worst days, I wish I had someone to do this with.

I’m generally pretty organized at work because I have to be. I’m a 4th year lawyer and my firm recently started including me in a new transactional practice area. I know now the lead attorney is unorganized and “meets”all deadlines last minute. They hope that I will bring organization to this area. I’ve lived my whole life trying not to live like this. It’s a good opportunity for me to look good if I fix it, but it’s stressful and more practice management than legal work. Continue in comment...

That moment when you’re reading a social media post about ADHD trauma, and you’re nodding along agreeing with all the comments, and after about 20 minutes you remember you’re supposed to be working and you forgot to take your meds. 🤦🏻‍♀️
