  • Literally cannot thrive without lots of physical activity, is this common?

  • The body rewards physical excercise with dopamine and endorphins. ADHD people are especially sensitive to rewards. You are accustomed to that now and it's your new normal. I think that you could readjust after a while if you stopped the physical activity but that's your choice.

  • Excellent advice. I came to the same conclusions for Ritalin.

  • Stimulant medications can help with executive disfunction, and if that is something problematic in your life, having it go better can have ripple effects on the rest of your life, like for instance confidence levels, feelings of well being and happiness.

    Anti depressants can help with mood fluctuations and anxiety.

    Tranquilizers can help with panic attacks.

    Depending on the country you're from, a simple visit to a GP could yield some results, especially if your therapist is a registered psychologist and discusses a medication trial with your doctor.

    As others have commented, there is no cure for the thing we call ADHD, and being medicated only helps with some things. You will still need to navigate the difficult parts of your life.

    A change in mindset can have dramatic effects on anger issues and talking about sensitive issues. Learning how you work and communicating what you need (coping strategies) to your loved ones is important. If you haven't already discussed coping strategies in therapy then I would go that route.

    Personally, I identify with your struggles and although I don't think I will ever resolve some of those difficulties, I have made good progress. When something sensitive comes up that I don't want to talk about or if I feel anger, I say to my partner let's revisit this topic later after I have had time to cool down and reason about it with logic instead of emotion. The time when the topic is revisited can be a few hours or the next day but not too long in the future.

    Good luck friend.

  • Is this comm still being moderated?

  • It doesn't look like the mod has had any activity for the last 5 months.

  • That's called a bias.

  • If everyone is neurodivergent then there would not be a term neurotypical, go educate yourself. No two brains are the same but there are ranges that be be used to identify non typical patterns.

  • People here are at all different ages, maturity levels, and possibly have other issues like language barriers, all of which can contribute to a person being taken advantage of by typical advertising practices. If you don't think this is an issue for you, that's great, but that's just like your opinion, man!

    I will continue to keep the community clear of ways to extract money from the members.

    Jump

  • The problem is with the original study. We don't allow advertising or other ways that a person could extract money from our community. Some people are desperate for answers and it takes advantage of them. Sorry to be a pain!
