Shit like this is why I haven’t bothered trying to get a diagnosis as an adult. Even if I get it, and get prescribed anything, there’s no point if you can’t reliably get meds to take consistently.

The news would lose their shit if it was drugs for diabetes, but fuck people with ADHD I guess, jump through the flaming hoop and juggle pharmacies.

@Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Yeah, but most people would like to consistently be a functioning adult, not “when they can be on their meds”.

Still, I should. I’ve got a long list of things to talk to a doctor about (when I get to it. Eventually.)

Ahhh, Strattera. I remember being on that as a kid. Made me noxious and suppressed my appetite (apparently you’re supposed to eat before taking it?) but from what I remember worked pretty well.

The appetite suppression is why my parents took me off of it and replaced it with

checks notes

Absolutely nothing. And didn’t keep records of my medical history. And made no attempts to have me treated for it after the age of 10.

Here’s a list of 10 pharmacies in your area you can try having your prescription sent to, get there, and find out they don’t have it (a tale I’ve heard many times…), WHILE you don’t have the meds that makes that not a monumental task! While being judged by every pharmacist for daring to need a CoNtrOlLed SUUUUUUBSTAAAAANCE.

(I’m the person you were replying to 😜) i looked into it plenty like 4 months ago and got a doctor in mind to go to for diagnosis, definitely worth a try when the brain go brrr BRRR (again, amongst the ever growing pile of "oh hey my family has a history of _____ i should look into that sooner rather than later)

I read like 3 chapters of a “PowerShell in a Month of Lunches” the other day and was surprised at myself. I’ve had the book for almost a year now, got about halfway through it, and it’s been living in my work backpack directly next to my work laptop ever since 🙃

Plus plenty of people who metabolize stimulants… weirdly. Caffeine does fuck all for me (aside from give me the shits) if I chug it, but sipping an energy drink over the course of a few hours does wonders in little ways.

I genuinely wish it was, but it’s caffeine in general. Can’t do high-caffeine coffee drinks because they’ve all got fuckin’ dairy in them, and regular hot coffee puts me to sleep.

Zorsith ,
@Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Yes. And they give me the shits, and don’t really do much for me if I chug them. And no, it’s not a tolerance buildup thing, I can go months without caffeine, and chug 2-3 200mg energy drinks.

It’s such a low bar for the DNC to just put forth a viable candidate, and all they’ve come up with is a controversial president’s wife who doesnt know when to shut up and not tank her own (and others) campaign, a genocidal geriatric strike-breaker, and now, after nearly two decades of blatant, recorded police abuse and widespread protests against police… President “female bad-cop”.

Meanwhile, in the US, the government paid ISPs for fiber to be ran and they just pocketed it instead.

Now we’ve got smaller companies running fiber and charging less for synchronous gigabit than you’d pay for copper 500mb down 5mb up, and ISPs are panicking a bit.

All the fiber maps have big empty zones where apartment complexes are, sadly.
