This basically sums up my entire life with ADHD. It's all good until they start yelling at you.

<3 "brain is a horse eating oats"!

J. Woods's avatar

That "<3" was supposed to turn into a heart sign...

Ok, this hit so close to home that my siding has dents in it now

My own pre-ADHD diagnosis coping method was to drink at least one (1) bottle of wine before attempting any major works. For the 'focus'.

Same, SEE: entering recovery at 27 lmao

The one thing I'm glad about is that ADHD meant I'd spent all my money on random shit, so I couldn't afford to get into drugs. Small mercies

J. Woods's avatar

Those are tender mercies indeed. Some of us spent money on random shit AND got into drugs...

Quarts of coffee in hopes that my attention will stop slip sliding away...Now I am on Vyvanse.

Currently on coffee. Looking to upgrade

Same. So many caffeines consumed.

J. Woods's avatar

I really need a caffeine drip, even now.

Nina's avatar

I take one tea to bed to drink, and one to go cold so I can get caffeine down my neck within moments of waking.

J. Woods's avatar

That's a good idea. I program the coffeemaker to start brewing before I am conscious. But it's not next to my bed.

Yet.

Wow that sexual experience downside is attacking me right now.

Shit man. Have I related to something more? Only every line of the updated edition of “Procrastination” I’m currently reading. Bravo
