I commonly read youtube comments that state a drug like Strattera completely changed their adhd for the better.

Whilst I havnt tried this(yet) I wondered what other options exist?

      I found out too late. I’ve unknowingly been battling for over a decade, and yet only now I understand just how insignificant my progress really is.

        I get how you feel that, but I can’t agree. Knowing who we are is real, tangible progress. Ages of people like us died never having the words we’re able to use now. You’re still alive, and you’re trying, and you’re getting somewhere.

        It’s not too late.

          Fuck off with that mindless positivity bullshit. I’ve tried my hardest and have gotten nowhere. I’ve failed college once and am failing it twice. I haven’t got any useful skills and I’m bad at the best job I’ve ever had. You are either lucky you’re not half as retarded as some of us, or simply ignorant of how debilitating ADHD can be.

            Shou I get your point but I agree with beefbot Im sure you havnt tried everything…

            When you know something doesnt work, the benefit is that you know to try somthing else.

            Have you tried Religiously Swimming 5 times a week, combined with light-weight excersize at the gym? Add in solid 8 hours of sleep and noFap… For me its a huge boost in Mood and ADHD…

            If not that what about Magic Mushrooms, LSD, Amphetamines?

            You were given the gift of life and time for free… So long as you have it you can spend it to correct your problems.
