      Do you ever get the feeling that the system is specifically designed to be impossible for people ADHD and associated anxiety/depression to navigate? Oh you think you’ve got ADHD? Well prove it by doing all this homework! You know what people with ADHD and anxiety/depression fucking LOVE to do? Make a bunch of phone calls! You know what would be really funny? Lets force people with ADHD to show up on time to, like, 20 appointments - they’re SUPER fucking good at that I’m sure nothing will go wrong.

        Pretty sure this is all a consequence of the war on drugs too. Love too be a side effect of racist policy.

            Yeah. Keep going through the motions. You'll eventually get what you need. Stay strong.

          Still kinda weird a psychologist would ask a patient where they were going to get a prescription, presumably they would be responsible for referring their patient if medication would be helpful?

            That's how it worked with my psych. She was like you have ADHD, and then she told my psychiatrist I needed drugs and my psychiatrist gave me drugs.

      I feel for you. My psych tried to give me only bupropion and I was like this shit don't work. Then she gave me lots of adderall and my life got better.

      Damn, that's awful, sorry you're having so many issues. I basically went to my GP and said "hey I definitely have been living with ADHD for my whole life and I'd like an Adderall prescription" and he wrote me up for 10mg after I got bloodwork done and had an appointment to describe my symptoms.

      That's how it should be for everyone, privatized healthcare is a fuck.

    The fact that all the people I get along with the best have ADHD should've clued me in a lot sooner that I probably have it as well and might wanna get tested. But oh well, better late than never. Getting diagnosed and medicated was the second best thing I did to improve my quality of life; only transitioning beats it out. Fuck ever going back to being unmedicated, that shit fucking blows.
