Anyone else have a gaslighting parent? I saw a therapist about my mom for years and it helped, but now in biglaw, it can be really hard to deal with. sometimes my mom delivers a punch to the gut via text in between months of being my friend. I guess I’m just so wound up, my mom’s friendship (which is how I characterize it) is a comfort for me. So when she hits me with something randomly spiteful and hurtful, it’s like shock, devastation, loneliness, and anger all at once.

When I originally was looking to get into a big Tech company, I decided to get my foot in the door my best option would be to become an admin. Although I am learning A LOT, I fear that those around me may only see me as capable of only administrative tasks. I am early in my career, and want others to see that I can be an asset in other roles. Any advice on how to get others to bet on me/advocate for my career development with skills that I have but do not have to opportunity to use everyday?

Executive dysfunction is so annoying. Not only am I avoiding things I don't want to do, I'm also avoiding things I DO want to do, things that make me feel good or that I need.

Growing up I’ve always wondered if I had some form of ADHD since I had a lot of trouble focusing in class. Lately I’ve found myself zoning out during meetings more often and started wondering again. Can anyone share their journey on how they got diagnosed, what your first steps were, and if you used any firm resources?

What courses or certificates would you recommend for someone who wants to learn how software works from a top-down approach?

My main goal is to understand how everything is connected, and why something is needed where it is needed.

ADD or Burnout?

I'm having difficulty assessing whether my resistance to doing my job has to do with burnout or ADD. Is there a way to tell the difference ?

Anybody else inattentive type? What are people’s strategies for getting up and getting going first thing? I can be laser-focused once I get on task, but it’s a real struggle to start my day. Any tips?

What kind of accommodations can I ask for especially since I work from home? I am having an extremely hard time with the pressure and time constraints on getting the work done.

What's your go-to work music? Or do you work better in complete silence? I can't work in silence without my brain getting loud, so I listen to house music or jazz while I work. My sister (who also has ADHD) can't get anything done unless it's dead silent. Just wondering what works for others

Are there any high functioning people with ADHD here?

What types of work accommodations can help people with ADHD? I am starting to believe 35+ of having not managed my ADHD has really negatively impacted me in career growth etc. I'm realizing a lot of things about myself are because of the ADHD. I want better for myself and family but 1. I don't enjoy the same things forever 2. Imposter syndrome and RSD make me believe it's acceptable to start over in new places at low salaries. 3. Typical college won't work for me. 4. I also can't relocate.

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 else find themselves the most focused at the end of the work day? Any tips for finding that focus earlier in the day?

Has anyone tried lsd, shrooms, molly and felt some difference?I definitely think it always has some impact on me

So I finally got the courage to go to a psychiatrist and get tested to see if I have ADHD or any other “disorders” I don’t like that word . I find out my results on the 21st of April !

I’m pretty certain I am battling ADHD but just realizing this in the past year (I’m 40). I am nervous about getting diagnosed because I’m terrified I’ll become dependent on the meds… and if I’m honest, that I’ll “like” them too much. Is that crazy? The feelings of being overwhelmed are becoming too much to bear and I can’t seem to get anything done. Any words of encouragement?

My ADHD has been a massive barrier for me in my career. I can’t stay at a job for more than 1.5 years.

My ADHD keeps me from being a consistently great performer. When I manage my ADHD, I am amazing. And when I fail to manage it, I fall short. And everyone then wonders why I can’t do my basic job responsibilities.
It’s frustrating. I am V qualified, talented and capable, but this thing is killing me. Everyone I know is getting ahead and I’m constantly struggling even though I’m ambitious.

Daylight savings is kicking my ass. I also have fibromyalgia so the cold weather is kicking my ass. Overall I seem lazy and in an unmotivated haze. How do you pick yourself up? I need 40 billables this week.

How do you complete the last parts of slideware? Boring cleanup, numbers consistency, spelling etc (the ocd factors)?

My boss assigns projects with unclear expectations and provides no guidance on how to achieve them.

I've asked for help, and, to avoid a long post, she expects me to figure it out. Perhaps you go through this too, but when I don't have a clear guide on completing big projects, it paralyzes me because I don't know where to start. On top of that, I have anxiety, so "it has to be perfect".

How do you approach projects when your boss plays the "guess what's in my head" game?

Lately I've struggled SO much with balancing taking care of myself and work. Seems like I can either get a bunch of stuff done and have a productive workday OR eat, get exercise and talk to other people during the day. Yesterday I didn't eat a single thing and just went to bed after work. It's miserable. How can I find a balance?
