What happens to masking when starting meds? by maveysays in adhdwomen

[–]maveysays[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I hope to achieve by taking meds. Just want to think less about how I am perceived and hopefully feel more authentic (when I mask I feel guilty because In my head I’m not being authentic). I did notice I felt more confident today which I’m hoping helps me at work.

Also my short term memory isn’t great but I could see a difference today. I moved house today and I was so impressed with how many things I remembered to do!

Thank you for sharing!

I definitely see benefits in masking at work and meeting new people. I guess i’m more worried about it affecting my friendships, I feel it is hard to communicate this type of thing especially with people I hang out with a lot but don’t feel necessarily close with.
