I was diagnosed with ADHD a few weeks ago, ive been put onto the waiting list for titration to start meds but it looks like its still gonna be a few months. I could really do with getting my meds asap as ive got exams and coursework coming up, anyone have recommendations for stuff to help with keeping me focused? I’m currently just downing monsters like they’re water whenever I need to do work
Sorry that you have experienced that, have you tried looking for a psychologist on a place that’s more specialized on ADHD? (Perhaps other contry) I had depression before starting though. Once I did get better on depression department, I have been working on how ADHD affects my life and people around me.
Any depression for me is a byproduct of the ADHD and not something that exists within me alone. This is the part that people seem unwilling to consider. I don’t really know how to find someone who specializes. Finding ANYONE who can accept patients is already the hard part. How have you done so?
Well, I leave on a different country than you probably, Uruguay!And my psychologist leaves on another country, online sessions are easier for me. I understand how hard is looking for help, perhaps you have someon close to you that you could ask for help to find a psychologist outside your current sphere. There is a lot of people that speaks English and doesn’t live on USA or England, so perhaps you could look for a culture that is lore accepting of our issues!
