I am supposed to turn in a major project, and I’m so far behind. I have adhd and my executive dysfunction has been out of control for weeks. I am already two days past the deadline, and nobody has called me on it yet, but the minute they do shit will hit the fan.
I’m scrambling to pull something together, but it’s not going to be enough.
I am seeing a psychiatrist, but I don’t think I’m on the right meds. Wellbutrin for anxiety and melatonin to sleep. He also is a bit of a holistic naturalist and keeps recommending Enlyte medical food, which sounds like some bullshit but I dunno. I think I need a better doctor who will just give me the stimulants.
Having both a wife and child with ADHD you need to try different meds to figure out what works.
In spite of the fact that is it is basically guaranteed that it is an inherited genetic trait the meds that work for them are different and even from different categories.
Pretty common actually. Some meds are better suited for kids or for adults, due to various factors, not just biology.
You need to get one that will actually help you with executive dysfunction by prescribing Adderall, Concerta, Ritalin, etc
