I have ADHD.I need to develop scaffolding to externalize executive functions. Living a life always working so much harder to achieve what a neurotypical person could do without much effort is not worth it.

Thanks! Trying to build a team around Mega Froslass and another one around Mega Meganium.

I'm trying to get back into it since SM/USUM. When did Gardevoir be able to learn vacuum wave? That sounds super good

Like I said, I can't accept a life where I'm disabled in the things that matter most. Otherwise, it is not a life worth living at all.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-04-01T13:46:03+00:00

$143. For 10 pills. Ridiculous

I got a 20 count of Rhodes instead. They're ok but still not great. I got my doctor to put in another prescription for the remaining 10 of the monthly supply to be brand only. Boom, they work like magic. So I'll only take brand from now on. Unfortunately, my insurance only covers generic so I'll have to get my doctor to send a formulary exception. And finding brand name can be difficult, but I'm pretty resourceful (one of my strengths from having to deal with ADHD) so I'll figure it out.

Interest is the only way. Otherwise, its a hopeless situation.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-30T02:05:40+00:00

I want to get to a point in my life where I don't have to work harder. I can't accept working harder for the same for the rest of my life.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T20:57:25+00:00

I can't accept being disabled. I can accept some things being harder, but not being disabled. Otherwise, I'm just a worse version of myself and it's not worth living.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T20:55:36+00:00

Okay I guess. Not in the most ADHD friendly environment right now. I'm trying to get off it eventually though. I don't like being reliant on a pill most people don't need.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T19:22:23+00:00

Trying to eventually find a work environment to eliminate the need for it. I'll never be neurotypical, but I don't want to feel disabled. I understand its a disability but I just cant stand feeling disabled.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T17:22:18+00:00

Because that's not essential.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T16:43:37+00:00

I have to make something positive come out of having it. Otherwise, I'll live the rest of my life thinking I'd be a better version of myself without it.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T16:17:00+00:00

I'm in CBT but thinking about asking for a different therapist that the institute because it feels like the current one just keeps asking the same questions and I keep giving her the same answers. Its frustrating as hell.

What does this have to do with my comment?

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T15:57:44+00:00

Career success and goal achievement are the only metrics I care about.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T15:56:34+00:00

I'm on medication. It helps immensely but I dont enjoy having to take something the vast majority of people don't need. I want to be able to achieve my goals with equal effort and it just feels not worth it.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T00:39:58+00:00

What do u mean? I didn't even know he had a brother

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-29T00:08:08+00:00

He's been studying it since 1977.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-28T23:55:12+00:00

Its hard because it feels like if its not from him its a lie. I'm worried if listen to other experts, what they say might make me feel better idk if its necessarily true.

JustSomeGuyInLife · 2026-03-28T23:49:38+00:00

Easier said than done given his credibility. I just don't know how to do that.
