To me as an armchair psychologist, this sounds more like that the author should get a check for ADHD with depression as a co-morbitity.

- andi999 6y agoHonestly, while the essay sounds ironic and funny, if it is not all made up, it is far from healthy.
- afarrell 6y agoEasier said than done. The most important prerequisites to getting successful treatment for ADHD are the abilities to: - Stay focused while shopping for a psychiatrist for a problem that fills you with a sense of despair. - Make appointments and consistently attend them. - Clearly and persuasively explain to your loved ones how important it is to you for them to fill in a description of their memories of your childhood symptoms... and hope you weren't inattentive subtype. Spending hours reading history books isn't memorably annoying to parents like hyperactivity. - Keep an organised record of the impacts of medication as you go through titration. - Deal effectively with the administrative complexity of either health insurance or a new country's healthcare system.

- andi999 6y agoI agree it is easier said than one. First microstop would be trying to get a professional diagnosis.
