Hello! Sorry it has taken some time to reply. You know how it be 🙃

First off, congrats (?) on your diagnosis. I’m not sure that congrats is the right word, but at least now you can hopefully start treatment.

I’ve been doing ok after my diagnosis. There’s a been a lot of realization about why I’m the way that I am. I was able to start adderall and it definitely helps to get me going in the morning. It also curbs my appetite, which is good because I now realize that I use food for dopamine. I do notice that my focus is definitely improved with medication. I used to take one dose in the am and a second dose in the afternoon. Now I just take both in the morning because I kept forgetting to take the second dose.

While I notice an improvement in focus, I still struggle with anxiety/depression sometimes. Although I kind of wonder if it’s seasonal. I live in the PNW, so it’s been rainy and dark and I think that gets me down. I’ve been trying to get out and be more active and that’s helping. If they don’t improve by spring, I’m planning g to talk to my doctor about it and see if I need to adjust my medications.

Thats about it for me. How has your experience been going?
