    An ADHD diagnosis changed my entire life. 10 years of treatment for depression. Then bam! Adderall!

        Love the neurotypicals apparently thinking the other guy was being sarcastic with conditions notorious for comorbidity.

        Toss in some anxiety and you have a “gifted” student.

          Hahaha. I’m in this comment and I hate it. And yes, I was being genuine. Diagnosed at 30 with ADHD.

          Toss in growing up without any resources offered to help you and then have an existential crisis once on proper meds as an adult wondering how all those years would’ve been different with just a fuckin occasional shrink visit sometime in early teenage years

      Ffs, they keep telling me I’m too old for amphetamines & to just stick with antidepressos.
