I work with a psych and take the stimulants, and still struggle. Medication is only half the battle. I would recommend checking out Andrew Huberman's podcast episode on ADHD. Basically, as I understand, the medication "smooths out" the pathways that are "blocked" in the dopamine system. Once medicated, I think a treatment plan like this would be very helpful for me and for others.
- sadhd 4y agoHave you watched Dr. Russell Barkleys series? https://youtu.be/sPFmKu2S5XY https://youtu.be/sPFmKu2S5XY. I have actually done professional research into executive function and working memory--not a PhD but have one masters and nearly through another. His explanation lines up with the physiological psychology that I have learned.

- christalwang 4y agoThank you for sharing! I've done these 2 of Russell Barkley's free courses: http://www.continuingedcourses.net/active/courses/course109.php#Course http://www.continuingedcourses.net/active/courses/course109.... http://www.continuingedcourses.net/active/courses/course109.php#Course http://www.continuingedcourses.net/active/courses/course109.... I took notes on the former (here: https://shimmercare.notion.site/ADHD-in-Adults-Diagnosis-Impairments-and-Long-Term-Management-Russell-Barkley-df4f3c8156d34a2e96011c8e01d9e707 https://shimmercare.notion.site/ADHD-in-Adults-Diagnosis-Imp...) but didn't get around to the latter.
