Recently diagnosed with ADHD and on medication that helps me a lot with my job. I have very short attention span and trouble concentrating. With Ramadan coming around the corner, wondering how I would manage fasting and not be able to take my medication since I have to time it when work day starts.

I already have had performance issues at work before diagnosis and can't afford to slip up again.

Any tips from fellow ADHD diagnosed Muslims? Thank you

Try to finish most of the work in morning time and don’t leave important/heavy work for late afternoons.

See if you can get in extended release medications and take it during suhoor. Also make sure you have a full meal in the morning the slowly digests throughout the day. Lots of healthy fats and protein.

I was diagnosed a few years ago and I took azstarys. I took it once a day in the morning and it lasted all day (I think 12 hours) bc it was extended release.

Pretty sure that this is a medical condition that prevents you from fasting.

Extended release dose + getting important tasks done in the morning should help. I’d also try to talk to your manager to see if you can get a work hour shift so you can work earlier and leave earlier

2. What are other good areas to live in? Safe and would like to be less than 1 hour from Galveston.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
