This usually only happens when I am sick or tired but not always. Occasionally I hear my phone ringing (it's a video game song so it's unique) or what sounds like voices through a door. Usually there's white noise happening at the same time. It's hard to tell if it's because of the white noise or not because my apartme... | ADHD |
I recently started my postgraduate degree (research). And how that works is research students will be placed to go to school in an office so it feels more like a job environment rather than a classroom environment. And I have been having the hardest time trying to get to know people or make friends. I find it hard to e... | ADHD |
Ive been diagnosed for a few years but just started medication, maybe, a year ago.

I've always known that I have PTSD symptoms, but now that I think about it, I never really researched what having PTSD symptoms really mean. And so I did just that.

I hate that my executive function is completely burnt out during my work day, and my partner & kids only know me as an irresponsible dipshit.

Hi,
so today I have been seeing a psychiatrist, and I told him about my suspicion that I have (inattentive) ADHD & my symptoms. What makes my case a bit tricky is that I was a really gifted kid with outstanding capabilities when it came to maths, logic & language. On top of that I had great coping mechanisms and I got... | ADHD |

To all those who take medication, what’s your experience with tolerance?
I just started vyvanse, but I don’t see the point in taking stimulants if I’m just going to build a tolerance and be back to square 1, plus now have a dependence.

These past few days, I had been fine. I was energetic, productive, maybe not happy- but at least I was indifferent. Today I just feel like I crashed. I just feel like I have nothing to offer anymore.

So I'm supposed to go to the dentist Monday and I'm *terrified* because I'm afraid the anesthetics are gonna cause me to be loopy and say an intrusive thought out loud.

I’ve just started exploring autism over the last month or so after my son got recently diagnosed and have noticed a great number of websites/videos from the countries listed above compared to the U.S. Is it because they’re on the forefront on diagnosis and treatment compared to the U.S. or something altogether differen... | aspergers |
I am not sure why this is, but I feel like as a parent with PTSD, I have become extremely overprotective of my 9 month old child. For example, when my baby was 3 months, my mother in law was invited over. She jokingly hit my husband on his arm a few times when I was not there. From then on (6 months ago) I absolutely d... | ptsd |

No matter where I am or what I'm doing, I can't wait until I can go home. And do absolutely nothing. And I hate it.

Most of my issues with my subtypes of OCD are mental (fortune telling, mind reading, social anxiety). I have worked on them before but never really got through this particular issue, especially because I was employed so I could avoid it all too easily. Any advice is helpful. On the flip side when I can get myself into ... | OCD |
I don’t know if it’s an ADHD thing but oh my god I’m so bored. Everything is so boring. Everything is pointless. Everyone seems depressed. It is like nothing can makes me vibrate.

I know this is an old issue but I was discussing it with my parents recently and they insist that I started showing Autistic traits immediately after getting the MMR.
