ADHD: the world is too slow

Doctors: This pill will let you tap into the speed force.

Does the medication work for adults?

For me personally it gives me the ability to choose to do things. Before it would be hard to do a thing I didn't want to do. It was like trying to pickup large heavy smooth ball covered in oil. Now the ball isn't covered in oil. Picking it up didn't become easy, just possible.

Yes and it's amazing, but it's not a fix all solution. It helps with focus, executive dysfunction and fatigue, but psychological and psychiatric support is really necessary.

Yes. Being able to focus on a boring task after over 30 years of not being able to is an amazing feeling

Can you also switch tasks as needed? Collaborate with others?

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 days ago

switching tasks can sometimes be a problem, especially when you first start medicating. But it's managable. Just make sure to actually sit in front of whatever you want to do.

Can't say much about collab. I haven't found much difference there

Depends on the individual as with all meds but if you find the right med for you then it totally helps even as an adult

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

I mean it does help though

Hmm ... we aren't sure. Your humors are likely out of balance, we can leech you or you can do meth.

This one right here, folks. This is it; we've got it. Everyone ~~rise~~ else can go home.

Is this a cult? 😶‍🌫️
