I take Ritalin 10mg on a needs basis since I generally have functioned ‘alright’ into adulthood.

Just took one to get some work done today and it still amazes me how normal I feel about doing work once I’m medicated. Like there’s no massive hurdle to even starting. No massive reluctance and task paralysis to fight.

Coming from a whole week where I’ve been procrastinating on whatever isn’t urgent, suddenly it’s so easy to just… do.

I also get incredibly chatty (hence the post, lol), but yeah. I can’t imagine how life changing it must be for people who struggle even worse with executive dysfunction.

    I feel like you have a bone to pick here. There are people with ADHD who are all of those things who still need medication to function.

    I’m sorry if it seems like I’m trying to derail your post, it is not my intention

    And yet here you are.
