Every screening and official diagnostic I’ve taken has me scoring max ADHD points and every time someone describes a symptom I’m left confused that other people don’t have them.
Will my personality change? I feel like being a disorganized disheveled loud interrupter is most of my personality at this point idk.
I’ve never done any stimulants beyond drinking a million coffees per day so i have some anxiety about this
Man I need to look into getting meds. I already see a psychiatrist for the depression but I’ve only come to realize the ADHD recently when my partner started pointing out some of the the things I do. It does sound nice to be able to remember to do things.
If you suspect you’ve got it, I reccommend the book Scattered Minds by Gabor Mate. It helped me a lot to make me realise that all kinds of things I was doing were ADHD symptoms that I would never have considered otherwise. @Acute_Engles@hexbear.net this book tip might also be useful for you.
Yeah being on depression meds exacerbated my ADHD symptoms for sure
