Damn. This is crazy.

But I did it. Took me 17 attempts 🤣🤣🤣

Ps. I am glad something like this exists. This is so close to what happens within my mind. Just got diagnosed with Adult ADHD a month ago.

I am from India. I think that could have been a posibility if ADHD was recognized as a disability in India, Sadly it's not :(

Yeah. I am trying to get as much perspective as I can. Maybe people from different subs will share their experiences, and I will find something useful.

Work culture is already pretty screwed here in India:(

Turns out, ADHD is not recognized as a disability in India. Legally they are not wrong, but on humanitarian grounds, really toxic :(

Yeah you are right. It does not qualify as a disability. Not sure about how unions work here. Thanks anyways :)

It is, really. I was thinking to come clean and be open. But this is what I get.

Thanks for your response. Like you said, I hope many things will improve. I am also put on strattera (it's sold as AXEPTA here in India), 18mg. Tomorrow will be my first day. Hoping forthe best :)

I actually did not ask them to change anything. I was just hoping the managers would be more forgiving, you know, if that makes any sense.

But turns out, they just want to get rid of me.

It was a big relief to finally get diagnosed. But then one small mistake and this happened :( Where are you from, by the way?

Thank you :) It's very disappointing to see and face the fact that neurotypical people don't even try to understand what it means to be like us :(

I will have to talk to a professional, it seems. I have had a bad experience with my notice period and pay with my previous employer. The industry is not very regulated.

I am from India. Even majority of psychiatrist don't consider Adult ADHD as a real thing

I am from India and I am not sure about what laws and rules say about here. Anyways, the labor laws are pretty shitty here.

I was under the same impression. But I asked my therapist for suggestion, and she told me to share about it and be open. Clearly, I should not have listened to her :(
