Part of having adhd ?
I can drink energy drinks and coffee without it waking me up .
Brilliant because I can drink them literally whenever with no worries.
Awful because when I need to wake up there is NOTHING that helps

Adderall changing my life rn ngl
Metropolis its illegal in the UK 😭 cant even get it from a GP
Capzacsparrow what about vyvanse or ritalin? surely they have something that can help D:
Metropolis both are prescription only and whilst my doctor has unofficially diagnosed me if i get it on my actual medical records I cant join the navy 💀 he booked me in to start the adult autism and adhd diagnosis process but I didnt follow up on it for my career's sake lmao . It kinda makes it sound like I'm self diagnosing but in his words "you check every single box for adhd and maybe even auadhd " 😭😂
Capzacsparrow no thats so valid king i didnt get my adhd diagnosis until last year and im basicslly sol when it comes to adult autism. thats also insane that you can't join the Navy with adhd, are you sure its what you want to do? Getting properly treated for adhd could open up so many other paths
Metropolis honestly I mask it really well atp , but yesss , funnily the discipline and organisation really helps with alot of symptoms , like I'm a chaotic adhd er I have doom piles of clothes I wash and then forget to put away, or miscellaneous items that somehow amalgamate together 😭 but every experience I've had with the navy / cadets ect , its really helped me get on top of it and made me alot more disciplined and organised
Capzacsparrow yeah masking comes a lot easier with the inattentive adhd types. I also i feel queer people have more emotional intelligence on average so we get skipped over for diagnoses more often than straight people. I definitely stand behind the meds but totally agree you can learn those kinds of focus and discipline skills overtime to overcome adhd drawbacks. Navy sounds great for that, but I couldnt do it personally. martial arts is something that has helped me too. Gl friend <3
I can also drink coffee late and while it effects me probably only like 30% as much as someone else who would drink an iced coffee at 11pm
RandyBandy I literally get no effects like , ill down an energy drink and be knocked tf out 15 minutes later lmao, fuck sometimes they make me more sleepy its so weird
