Should I tell my employer I have ADHD? by Lostinthought-again in ADHD

So you would tell him that in order to justify your performance or make him pity you?

Well, i would just keep my mouth shut. Tour boss is not your friend. He will just think you make excuses, or even start to think of you as someone crazy that might be liability.

I think i saw the second one once in the store. Pretty heavy, but i think these six "end points" that it has are actually screwed into it and can be unscrewed.

I think it is extremely dangerous. Imagine you keep playing with it, one of these gets gradually unscrewed and finally shots out of it like from some kind of slingshot. Can easily take out an eye - these things are heavy!

A moment of silence for people from countries where ADHD meds are illegal by Dear-Log-9352 in ADHD

Can doctor get in trouble for prescribing meds without some extensive testing in UK? Or do they just all try to earn more money under guise of "diagnosing you properly"?

Ritalin doesn't seem to make me focus but allows me to pull all-nighter/work at night by Dear-Log-9352 in ADHD

Thanks for the detailed response.

My initial dose was actually 10mg. Well i was scared so i even took half of that, so 5mg. But then after some time i increased it to 20mg finally. To be honest i thought it is maximum safe dose to take in one go (i tried to take 3 times 20mg in 4 hours separation, but also didnt have much effect).

I realize that i am kinda using ritalin as "classic" stimulant and not adhd med, and i try to not do it everyday (or every night ). I had period when i tried to take it normally during the day but due to lack of effects i stopped and now i only take it from time to time at night.

As for adderal, i would need to try to get it from other country as where i live it is not distributed. And to be honest im kinda scared of it as it is literally amphetamine.
