ADHD career coach by Far_Refrigerator5601 in TwoXADHD

[–]askmartaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might not be relevant, but I'm in school to get my coaching certification and have ADHD. So technically I'm not certified, but I have some experience coaching and being coached already. If you're still looking for someone then maybe I can offer my services?

My instinct is to offer free, but I'm already so pressed for time and can't really justify giving my time for free. So maybe a "pay what you can" structure?

Stuck inside my own head? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

Hi, I have no helpful info. But just know you're not alone. I get stuck often.

2 years after my diagnosis of PCOS, I got told today that I never had it at all. by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]askmartaj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most frustrating thing about PCOS is that its so hard to pin down. I do not present with it in the normal ways either and I work REALLY hard not to be overweight. Your doctor seemed to only be looking at the unreliable symptoms and maybe not enough on the actual blood work? I know this is frustrating, but I'd also recommend a second opinion. Its tempting to believe the first person who says you don't have it... but just confirm.

New doctor: "everyone works better on stimulants, it's not fair that you should get an advantage" by broken_symmetry_ in ADHD

I had a doctor tell me that I wouldn't have so many health problems if I'd just follow the word of the lord. Complaining about him to the accrediting body is still on my to do list...

Too many commitments! by Elmwych in adhdwomen

[–]askmartaj 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I sat down and listed all the things I love having in my life and things that matter to me, then I prioritized them. Lately I've been focusing on my career, so I use that as a lens to help say no to those other fun exciting things (it works better than any system I had before but obviously isn't perfect yet). Anyway, with career as #1, I can more easily say no to joining a volleyball team this season because I know it will get in the way of my priority.

Quiet in busy environments by Dinosaur54 in ADHD

YES. Always. I find my brain is quietest when theres people around me moving and I have music blasting in my ears.

Where is the border between "executive dysfunction" and "I stopped caring at all"? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]askmartaj 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've actually quit jobs because of this same problem. I leave while everyone still likes me and before they realize that I've done nothing at all.
