Hey guys, just going to share my experience with you thus far. Not sure if it will be a long post (probably will be) but we will see; if it helps someone it’s worth the time. I’ll talk about my life, symptoms, coping strategies (pre and post meds), medication, reactions, what’s helped, the pros and cons, and TL;DR. I’l...

Let me start off by saying I know for a fact I have ADHD. I’ve been in therapy since I was 14, but it never stuck because my mom would only take me to therapists who were in our religion at the time and I didn’t feel heard or seen.
