Maybe not ADHD specific, but getting a prescription for Propranolol was _the_ biggest game changer for me (for the day-of). It is a beta blocker, commonly prescribed for stage fright (it numbs the flight or fight response/reduces physical symptoms of anxiety).
I only mention it because it can help balance out an ADHD stimulant (and anxiety is commonly co-morbid with ADHD).

- brianjking 2y agoDid your normal doctor prescribe it? I've always wanted to try this.
- aleksiy123 2y agoTwo notes. 1. Make sure you try it in your practice sessions first and not on interview day the first time. 2. For me I felt lightheaded and I think it had a negative impact on my interview. I think being a bit more on the amped side was positive for me in terms of talking and pacing, but everyone's different. Experimenting and practice is the thing that's gonna have the most return. First 5 interviews are write offs. After that you will know what works and will be much much better.
