Am I overestimating just how much they will help me?
I have an assessment soon, and I am absolutely confident i have it, so if i get on ADHD meds, will they help me read books again? will they help me study? will they help me get back to work if able? How much do they help with executive dysfunction?
I feel as though I’m putting all my eggs in the ADHD meds basket.
How much do they help you?
I’ll echo that they do nothing to help me choose the “right” task to focus on, but they will help make focusing on the boring ones not feel like holding my hand over a flame.
Mindfulness meditation has been the most helpful tool for recognizing when I’m veering off-course and correcting before there’s too much inertia to overcome.
