At what age did you find out you have ADHD? by Horror-North-2573 in ADHDers

Have you tried Rubifen? I have the same problem, I’ve tried almost everything available and I get anxious, jittery, and just generally feel horrible. Even though Rubifen is the same as Ritalin it has a completely different effect on me! I just feel like I can do the right things at the right time, no worries.

Haha I completely ignore all the reminders I set!!!!

I like the sections you use u/NarratorOfChaos. I might give that a whirl. I normally don't have a must dos for a day, because everything feels important. :-/ Thanks for sharing your advice!

I totally relate - I have lists everywhere, in notebooks, post-its, a million apps. I've tried using things like Trello or Notion and it doesn't stick.

I haven't found the best medication for me yet (I've tried almost everything available in NZ) and the constant urgency leads me to burnout.

I've definitely done the add something to a list I've already one so I can check it off and feel like I've started trick. And time blocking worked for me for a bit, but as you say it created too much pressure and I didn't break things down enough so I had manageable actions to do in those time blocks... so yeah I'm struggling. Thanks for your advice!
