Thinking about making a complaint to the ADA. I told someone I report to directly about my dyslexia and adhd during our one on one touch base and literally no accommodation or solutions, just this person still pushing things to me that will take me longer because I’m fucking dyslexic and assigning a short timeline just to complain about the quality

And for you to think I can’t perform or Im giving subpar deliverables is ableist. Im dyslexic, not dumb. I have a lot of spelling errors but I’m able to tell a story just as good as anyone else and describe interactions between complex systems. Visually and verbally, everything is there (architecture diagrams, process flows, etc) Im good at my job, Im not good at spelling.

Sorry to hear that you’re struggling with this. Do you have some specific accommodations that you’re looking for? Have you filed a ticket with Talent requesting that, or requesting support in determining what can work if you don’t know?

Lately I’ve been feeling like all my friends and family around me have such great careers and are very successful and I’m behind. I would like some help trying to figure out what my next career move should be. I know I’m capable, I just don’t know what I should be looking for in my next opportunity, or what (strategically) I need to do to work my way up the ladder. Any resources or suggestions of who I could hire to help me figure things out?

Trouble waking up? Set an alarm, take your meds, go back to sleep, and wake up feeling ready for the day!

I read this tip in another ADHD forum yesterday. Someone recommending setting a “first” alarm and taking medicine and then sleeping in a bit and when your second alarm goes off you’ll feel more awake. I tried it this morning and it was great! 7:15 alarm went off and I rolled over and grabbed my meds and water. Went back to sleep and at 8 when I needed to get up I felt so much more awake!!!

Is anyone on a low dose of Adderall or a similar stimulant, and do you find it helpful/effective?

When I was diagnosed (at 20 yo) I started on Adderall XR and my psychiatrist essentially took a “keep upping the dose until you feel side effects” approach, even though I still saw some benefits at a lower dose. I’m currently unmedicated and am somewhat hesitant to restart, but feel I could see some benefit and better stability with the help of medication.

Happy Friday. Just a reminder of a few things:

- ADHD is a disability, but it’s not the end of the world
- give yourself a break. Your brain needs it more than you realize
- medication is not a cure-all treatment. Medication + diet + exercise + self-organization is the key.
- ADHD causes us to feel emotions stronger than the average person.
- failure is inevitable, but so is success. Act accordingly, and be kind and fair to yourself
- life is hard, but that’s… wait, what was I saying? 😂😎❤️
