srs question but were you ever tested for adhd/add?
- CoastalCoder 3y ago+1 to this. I have ADHD, and WFH noise was really a problem for me. At first I partially addressed this with Adderall, which also works at company offices. But at least for me, the side-effects suck. Now I address it with a well-soundproofed home office, which makes up for the lack of Adderall.
- orliesaurus 3y agodid u give up adderall fully? or taking anything else? asking for a friend ;)
- CoastalCoder 3y agoI take Adderall only rarely now. If I take it on day N, it's pretty well guaranteed that my sleep schedule will be a mess by day N+2. But I've also found that taking Adderall for more than a few days has an ugly effect on my psychologically. So it's kind of a last resort. In general, my current modus operandi is: - Try to get good, consistent sleep. - Non-distracting home office. - Stimulants that are more gentle than Adderall: Vyvanse + coffee. (And stop taking any stimulants after 2 pm.)
