Damn bro, you might have to just nut up, grit your teeth, and use willpower

Do you all just go to your doctor and ask for it? I don't understand why it's come up so often.

If you don't have ADD then you don't need to get some. People seem to think of adderall as the brain's equivalent of an afterburner on a jet engine. The thing that people without ADD don't understand is that it isn't an option to "nut up, grit your teeth, and use will power". If you really have ADD, you could devote every ounce of effort to focusing on the task at hand and despite having the best intentions and deliberately removing distractions from your work area, your brain still derails as reliably as an Amtrak train doing 120 mph on a sharp turn in the eastern corridor. Even when on our prescribed medication it can be a constant battle to focus on the right thing at the right time. If I'm not careful when I take my medication I can wind up planning a new business or sketching out ideas for an invention instead of getting work done. I think just like it isn't really possible to understand the full scope of life experiences of someone who is of a different race or gender, it is equally impossible to comprehend what life is like for someone whose brain functions in a way that isn't considered normal.

@ey1 seriously ! I wonder what percentage of b4 ppl actually use, get prescribed Adderall. I keep going back and forth on whether I want to try getting Px or not. Better chances of higher rating bc I'll be focused and efficient vs. exacerbated heart problems 🤔🙃

I've been prescribed it for years because I need it to function like a normal human. You can't just go to any doctor and ask for it if you don't need it.

How do you get some if you don't have ADD?

Well said OP

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.
