I’m reading this as a person diagnosed in their thirties and it feels a bit detached from reality frankly.
I, and millions other people, could tell you that it does immensely benefit with issues like executive dysfunction. Medication quite literally made the problem I had been battling for decades disappear instantly.
Associating adhd just with childhood is in itself an obsolete view that causes issues for people.
- kstrauser 1y agoPreach it, although now it's crystal clear to me that I've dealt with ADHD since around middle school age and was fully in its throes by high school. Part of me wonders what my life would be like if I'd started treatment then and it was as effective as it's been for me as an adult.
- torben-friis 1y agoYeah same here - honestly I’m not yet even at the place where I’ve managed catch up with the issues caused by premeds time. Lack of trust in delivery speed at work, friendships damaged by unintended slights and so on. Even building habits that I could never have kept before is a grind. The fact that I now can build habits only places me at a neurotypical starting line, now habits still need to be built.
