I’m trying to rest for 60 minutes between sets but my gym has a strict time allocation of 45 minutes per individual. Any suggestions on how to compromise?

If you never lose stuff can you still be ADHD?

Is anyone else following this Twitter disaster? It is so good but I love the special call-out Eli Lilly (sorry to anyone who might work there or be invested) received for jacking up the cost of insulin. I know it won't change anything but it is nice that people are trying to hold Eli Lilly accountable.

I’m so over the cross-examination at CVS every time I have to fill a prescription. Are you really trying to play doctor right now????

If so, did you see a colorectal surgeon to get them tied or remediated after pregnancy? I am sure they are here because I am pregnant and had them bad on first pregnancy around 32 weeks.

For those ending work this summer could you help clarify how COBRA works exactly? I read that it’s retroactive up to 180 days, so does that mean I essentially don’t need to sign up and start paying unless I go 180 days? If something were to happen I can sign up for cobra after the fact and be covered?

Girlfriend has very obvious high functioning anxiety and body image issues that she admits but thinks she doesn’t need therapy or medication and that reading self-help books will help her. It’s not changing in the last several years and it’s impacting our relationship. Anyone have experience with their SO dealing with untreated anxiety? I know I can’t control her but would like to express my feelings without sending her into a spiral. For context, I’ve been in therapy for 12 months and medicated

Hi Fish
I saw a post about people looking for rental deals in Chicago.

My building is offering a promotion for anyone that's referred from a current resident. I get a discount credit on rent and you would get one month free, plus a $400 rental credit, plus a $500 Amazon gift card.

There's no move/out fees and rent varies from ~1600 to 2,000 depending if you want a studio, one-bed, or two-bed.

How much would be the average CTC for senior Accountant at Qualcomm Hyderabad?

My office recently was acquired by a new owner. He's shown interest in me being his office manager. He's said after this transition period, that they want to give me the official title and pay yo compensate that. But it's been 4 months. The transition is over and I've been busting my butt. On all the documents I am the manager, yet I feel like they just gave me the title without the pay for it. Should I wait a bit longer and be patient, or should I speak up and ask for the raise?

212 was a bust this year 🤷🏼‍♀️ what happened?!

If you're looking for inspirational films about addiction I highly recommend The Resurrection of Jake the Snake Roberts. It's a documentary about the wrestler who had about as bad an addiction problem as you can imagine. It goes through his problems, despair, but also shows his road to recovery through platonic love, support, and he finds redemption. It's great for anyone like me that tried and failed to get sober for years. I have over a year now for the first time.

Hi! I’m a young professional with less than 2 years experience, started a new job 1.5 months ago. I’m having quite some difficulties on balancing out my response time to tasks. While I act incredibly fast if not immediately with some, I sometimes take 1-2 weeks with couple of hours worthy ones. Sometimes I ignore, procrastinate or simply other more urgent things come up to increase the delay. Also I work with 3 managers in my team which doesn’t help with expectations nor guidance. Any tips pls?

Had anyone had luck with a therapist that specializes in adhd? I’m inattentive type and have a laundry list of other things I should go to therapy for but adhd is the glue

I’ve taken Adderall for several years & it has helped a lot for my ADHD. However, recently I have been increasingly overwhelmed with balancing work, school, & home life. I am really struggling to manage my symptoms even while taking the maximum ER dosage. I recently started taking Strattera as well, but haven’t noticed much improvement. My doctor has suggested switching to Vyvanse instead. What are your thoughts on Vyvanse vs Adderall? Has anyone has had more success with it?

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?

I found a place with great reviews to be diagnosed for ADHD, but it’s through virtual appointments, is this a normal thing?

Has anyone hired an assistant ( virtual or otherwise) to help them with managing their life? Any tips/tricks/stories? I’m done with myself…..

Anyone feel like self-control is more difficult on stimulants in general? Like reflecting back on things, thinking before speaking, holding out on pleasure activities

Does anyone know a good psychiatrist in NJ ?

So are we considered part of the neurodivergent community?

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind. And if it's not random stream-of-consciousness mess, it's music. Ever had a song stuck in your head? Because I've had one for four days now. Driving me nuts. Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?

Anyone had luck finding a good therapist who actually understands ADHD? Getting advice like "try taking a walk every day" and "practice these breathing exercises" is driving me crazy. I need actual solutions and shit, not just platitudes and internet worksheets.

Is there a way I can use my ADHD to trick myself into exercising more? Some way to make it seem more fun or trigger the dopamine? I love the results but dread working out.

I am trying to get an ADHD diagnosis, as my primary care and myself both think I could have it (runs in the fam). How many of y’all got diagnosed by a psychiatrist? Or did you have to do the extensive 4ish hour testing?

My psychiatrist said most psychiatrists won’t diagnose + give meds for adhd but the testing can get so expensive so I want to know if I should see someone else

Folks with kids - what's your routine for cooking, gym, home chores etc. ? We have a 2.5 year old toddler and we struggle to cook food, drop off our kid in daycare and then cook dinner and find time for working out. I am curious how other working couples organize and manage cooking, home chores gym. I am recently diagnosed with ADHD and curious how others make it work while working full time. Thanks!

Hey so like - newfound reason for my procrastination since I got on Ritalin - a tendency towards "putting things off so I can enjoy the hyperfocus later". When I just started taking the meds I was super effective for a few weeks but now my brain seems to be figuring out ways around the drugs 🤦🏻‍♀️ any ideas on how to not fall back into procrastination behaviours?

Looking at entering consulting/strategic management…any tips?

Ashwagandha. Look into it. With the Adderall shortage this has been an absolute life saver in my daily supplement pile.
